Cross Purposes

by Black Sabbath

Cross Purposes cover art

Featuring the return of Tony Martin on vocals and the addition of former Rainbow drummer Bobby Rondinelli, this seventeenth studio effort revitalized some of the band's classic doom atmosphere. While often overlooked due to the chaotic lineup changes of the era, the record offers remarkably solid, melodic heavy metal anchored by Tony Iommi's consistently imposing riffage.
