In These Black Days Volume 4

The Black Sabbath Tribute series released on Hydra Head Records during the late 90's certainly captured the hearts and imaginations of a generation. As such it's a surprise that Hydra Head still haven't released it on CD despite talking about it for over a decade. Well they talked about it a decade ago. Who knows if they still talk about it down at the Hydra Head offices? Clearly with the amount of time they need to spend on producing those Chel's list video updates there is no way they have the time to worry about a 10 year old Black Sabbath comp.

Anyway, I digress... this is Volume 4 featuring Cavity, Cable, Jesuit and Overcast. It was the only volume of the 6 to feature more than two bands and was the only volume to come as a double 7".

All the songs on this baby are solid as a rock. Actually the whole series is awesome. My favourite volume is probably volume 5 with Botch and Cave In but this isn't far behind.

I have the whole series on black and thought I should get them on colour. This is the 4th one I've picked up and only need the Converge / Brutal Truth and Soilent Green / Neurosis 7 inches to complete the set. One day...

First Press Pink and Gray /300.
