Product description

Black Sabbath's 18th studio album, Forbidden, has been reimagined for a new generation with the 2024 Tony Iommi Remix. Originally released in 1995, Forbidden marked the reunion of the Tyr-era lineup, with Powell and Murray returning to the fold. Produced by Ernie C of Body Count, the album features a guest appearance by rapper/actor Ice-T on the track "Illusion of Power".

This remixed and remastered edition brings new life to the classic heavy metal sound of Black Sabbath. With a duration of 48 minutes, the album takes listeners on a sonic journey through 11 tracks, including "Get a Grip", "Can't Get Close Enough", and "Kiss of Death". The 2024 Tony Iommi Remix of Forbidden is a must-listen for fans of metal, heavy metal, rock, stoner rock, hard rock, doom metal, and classic rock.

Released on 31 May 2024 via BMG Rights Management (UK) Ltd., this reworked album is a testament to the enduring legacy of Black Sabbath. With Tony Iommi's masterful remixing, the album's original tracks have been revitalised, offering a fresh perspective on a classic work. Black Sabbath's Forbidden is a seminal work in the heavy metal canon, and this new remix is an essential addition to any fan's collection.

This is a 2024 Limited Edition Reissue Remastered released as a LP.

  • Iommi's Remix Triumphs

    4 out of 5 stars
    vnetruOctober 20, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Finally, with Tony Iommi and Mike Exeter's remix, this album is fully audible. Ernie C.'s original mix was truly awful. Now, you can actually hear Cozy Powell's drumming! The songs' quality truly stands out. As for the pressing: even after wet cleaning, there's still some surface noise. But honestly, there aren't many quiet parts to notice it. Overall, I side with "gatefold"'s opinion.

  • Side A Audio Issues

    3 out of 5 stars
    GejempwulrqzJuly 4, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Side A's got a bunch of tiny craters, with some pops and crackles, particularly on "Can't Get Close Enough". Apart from that, it's a decent sounding album, with the bass turned down manually and the treble cranked up a bit.

  • Clear Vinyl Quieter Than Black

    5 out of 5 stars
    Qorar__March 2, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Fantastic pressing! I also purchased the boxset, and I've noticed the clear vinyl seems quieter than the black one. If you're experiencing a lot of noise, it's likely static. Make sure to use a brush before playing. The vinyl is housed in a black polythene inner sleeve. The lyrics are printed on a separate piece of paper.

  • Remix Outshines Original

    3 out of 5 stars
    pmquej01February 1, 2025United States🇺🇸

    DR might be lower, but this remix blows the original out of the water
