BLACK SABBATH – Technical Ecstasy (2021 Remaster)
BLACK SABBATH‘s album ”Technical Ecstasy” will have its Deluxe Edition available on October 1st as a 4-CD set and 5-LP set on 180-gram black vinyl. This fresh 2021 remaster of the original LP will be available as standalone version too.
Black Sabbath embraced change in 1976 when the heavy metal innovators started managing themselves and began exploring different sounds on the band’s seventh studio album, ”Technical Ecstasy”. The record reached #13 in the U.K. and was certified gold in the U.S.
In the summer of 1976, Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward headed to Miami to record ”Technical Ecstasy” at the famed Criteria Studios. The band was coming off a world tour for their previous album, Sabotage, that had found their live performances evolving to include keyboards and synthesizers.
These newly incorporated instruments and sounds were then introduced into the recording process on ”Technical Ecstasy”.
The new songs encompassed a wide range of styles from the hard charging “Back Street Kids” and ballad “It’s Alright,” to the funky “All Moving Parts (Stand Still)” and progressive “Gypsy.” The album also featured the single “It’s Alright,” which was the first Sabbath song to feature lead vocals by Ward.
The Deluxe Edition presents a newly remastered version of the eight-track album using the original analog tapes.
