Recorded entirely on vintage pre 1970’s studio equipment at East London’s legendary Toerag Studios, with visionary producer Liam Watson, Witchcult Today brings the oblivion and ecstasy of crushing doom and high grade marijuana, a sonic aural trip far, far away from this world: where only cyclopean walls of crackling vintage valve amplifiers set to the full overdrive and primal ritualistic beats can wash away all the filth and drudgery of everyday life.

Black Sabbath‘s Live at Hammersmith Odeon is a special 3LP vinyl release that was originally released by Rhino Handmade as a CD and sold out in one day. It’s never been sold in stores on vinyl before, and now it’s available as a limited-edition, numbered set (only 3,000 available worldwide).

This album features Ronnie James Dio, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward live at Hammersmith Odeon in January 1982 during Sabbath’s tour for The Mob Rules.
