REVIEWS AND PRESS CLASSIC ROCK INTERVIEW JAN 2007 INTAKE MANSFIELD 12 OCTOBER 2007 Ok hands up the people who didn't go to see Sack Sabbath then,well i am shocked,if you aint seen them before (like me) and you like early sabbath you are in for a treat. The sound was excellent (thanks John) Tony (Russ) IOU,was amazing,mind you the rest of the band was, not wishing to single out anyone cause I only know Russ,but the singer (wikked Ozzy clone),the bass player and drummer know their stuff, it was like being at a sabbs concert just shut your eyes and listen. If you dont go to any gigs for the rest of the year catch these guys they will rock your socks off . Metal Mickey-DJ at Mansfield Intake club.
CREWE LIMELIGHT 23 SEPT 2007 What to do on a Sunday evening? Yea, I know, it's Sunday evening,
tomorrow there's Around 9:50pm the screen went up and Sack Sabbath opened with 'Children of the Grave' quickly followed by 'Iron Man'. This opener established the following: The mix was just right; The front man really did look and sound rather like Ozzy from 25 years ago. It augured well for a great evening and we weren't disappointed. Eddie Doyle.
DOUBLE HEADER WITH FRED ZEPPELIN ROBIN 2 BILSTON, 9 JUNE 2007
First on stage is Sack Sabbath a band you could say I'm familiar with. Formed four and a half years ago and with many line-up changes along the way the "Ozzy" fronted Sabbath clones play only the early material from 1970-77. With every song in tonight's hour long set a "classic" the audience, who by and large are here to see the headliners, are won over by great numbers like war pigs, hand of doom and symptom of the universe. With top notch performances from front man Ozzy Oddbin, who whips up the crowd with screams of "lets go fuckin' crazy, lead guitarist Mr Tony IOU who manages to keep sane during Ozzy's antics and Mr Bill Lard at the back on drums with new boy Geezer (I can't believe it's not) Butler on Bass giving the rhythm section plenty of oomph. The final song of Sack Sabbath's set approaches in the guise of Sabbath bloody Sabbath, how they got away without playing paranoid is anyone's guess. (NOTE-We were all set to play it but we ran out of time! Gutted!-Sacko) Both of these bands are well worth checking out if you've somehow managed to miss them so far and when they team up like tonight then you really are in for a treat GD. Well, what can I say! Absolutely brilliant!!! "Fairies
Wear Boots" was superb, as were all the other classic Sabbath tracks
you performed! Well impressed! I hope to catch you again!
