Product description

Black Sabbath's seventeenth studio album, Cross Purposes, is a testament to the band's enduring legacy in the world of heavy metal. Originally released on 31 January 1994, this iconic album marked the return of Tony Martin as the band's lead vocalist, following the departure of Ronnie James Dio. The 2024 remastered edition brings new life to this classic record, featuring tracks such as "I Witness", "Cross of Thorns", and "Psychophobia".

With Geezer Butler's distinctive bass lines, Cross Purposes is often regarded as a true Black Sabbath album, rather than an Iommi solo project. The album's bluesy undertones and doom metal elements are a hallmark of the band's signature sound, which has influenced generations of rock musicians. The remastered edition includes all the original tracks, plus fan favourites like "Cardinal Sin" and "Evil Eye".

Clocking in at 50 minutes, Cross Purposes is a masterclass in heavy metal, with Black Sabbath's unique blend of dark riffs, haunting vocals, and pounding rhythms. The album's themes of love, death, and deception are timeless and thought-provoking, making it a must-listen for fans of the genre. With its rich history and enduring influence, Cross Purposes is an essential addition to any rock music collection, and a testament to Black Sabbath's status as one of the most iconic and influential bands in the history of heavy metal.

This is a 2024 Reissue Remastered released as a LP.

  • Sabbath's Diamond Masterpiece

    5 out of 5 stars
    vewtlatOctober 30, 2025United States🇺🇸

    This is my all-time favorite Sabbath record, and that's without Ozzy! The decay on 'Dying for Love' is just incredible. I can't figure out why it's priced so high, but it's an amazing album, top-notch quality—2023 update: just gave it another spin, apart from a couple of pops and crackles, it sounds fantastic. I mean, sure, big amps and speakers help, but man, track 1 on side 2 will show you why this album is so damn good!

  • Clear Vinyl Surface Noise

    5 out of 5 stars
    qjibwaOctober 19, 2025United States🇺🇸

    I've got the BMG clear vinyl version, and even after giving it a good clean, there's still a bit of surface noise. But apart from that, it's a solid release with a rich sound and a cool lyric sheet. Fun bit of trivia: The cover pic was used a few years prior for the Scorpions' single "Send me an Angel". https://www.discogs.com/de/release/389870-Scorpions-Send-Me-An-Angel I reckon, Tony Iommi wasn't too pleased about it.

  • Low Quality Print, Great Sound

    4 out of 5 stars
    YazsiqNOJune 2, 2025United States🇺🇸

    The digital print of the artwork is quite low quality and the sleeve is made from recycled material. It's a reversed version of a Russian Crimson Glory bootleg. Despite its appearance, this bootleg has excellent sound quality.

  • Worn Out, Poor Sound Quality

    1 out of 5 stars
    CofqnifFebruary 10, 2025United States🇺🇸

    I reckon there are no reviews for this issue because the sellers are desperate to offload it to anyone. ;) The artwork is worn out. The sound quality is poor, with plenty of static pops. It's the quietest vinyl in my collection, like you're always listening at the lowest setting. The bass is the only thing you can hear in the phonogram, which isn't terrible, but to catch the rest, you have to turn down the volume and then the bass starts buzzing. This version is worthless for both fans and collectors alike.
