7th album from 1976 by the British BLACK SABBATH, a daring and experimental work of Heavy Metal and Hard Rock where the band began incorporating more melodic, progressive and sophisticated influences into their trademark dark sound. “Technical Ecstasy” showcases BLACK SABBATH exploring new musical territory through keyboards, more elaborate arrangements and a cleaner production, while still retaining Tony Iommi’s heavy riffs and the band’s unmistakable gloomy atmosphere. A controversial yet highly interesting record that reflects a band striving to evolve and expand its creative boundaries during the 70s. Recommended for fans of DEEP PURPLE, RAINBOW, URIAH HEEP and BLUE ÖYSTER CULT.
