Black Sabbath – Evil Eye / Get A Grip (2024)

June 3, 2024

Evil Eye sounds massive. A really promising remaster job which will no doubt have many returning to the long forgotten Sabbath album from whence it came. Get A Grip took me by surprise. Initially, I did not like how the 2024 remix by Iommi and Mike Exeter handled Cozy Powell’s drums, nor was I particularly fussed on the strange inclusion of different vocals for the second chorus (I don’t understand why only one chorus has been changed). However, it is starting to grow on me. The quality and general upgrade status for this track is absolutely incredible. Anticipation for the full Forbidden remix was well and truly set by this tactical single drop on streaming services. Bravo to all involved!
