专辑简介
Back in 1997, we at Temporary Residence Ltd. had a novel idea: compile a Black Sabbath tribute album with experimental, folk and electronic bands reinterpreting classic Ozzy-era Sabbath tunes. At the time it seemed like a unique idea, since such tributes were then executed primarily by washed-up glam bands or tired hardcore groups cheekily cashing in on nostalgic quasi-irony. Much has changed over the last eight years, of course. Black Sabbath did the unthinkable by reuniting and has since done so three times. Ozzy Osbourne became a household name with his startlingly popular MTV-produced reality show and, to top it off, his children have become omnipresent pop culture irritants; in short, much of the world is ready for a break from the Osbourne clan. It is under these auspices, fittingly, that we proudly present the long-delayed Everything Comes & Goes, a tribute to the ultimate stoner-rock band.
The stories behind some of the tracks contributed by a diverse roster of some of the worlds most forward-thinking underground artists are nearly as compelling as the music itself. Matmos composed and recorded their track while on tour with Bj?rk. Japanese noise legends Ruins sent their speaker-destroying mega-medley without a word of advance notice, having heard secondhand about the compilation. Four Tet took advantage of the releases long delays to re-work and tweak his characteristic version of "Iron Man," and Curtis Harvey (Rex, Pullman) formed an eponymous trio whose entire recorded output is a heart-stopping version of "Changes" they broke up shortly after the session.
Everything Comes & Goes is full of genre-bending homages by genuine Sabbath fans; each track serves to remind us of the stunning brilliance and innovation that was the original Black Sabbath. And that, first and foremost, makes it worth all the wait.
