Picked up Acadia Strain's latest album on vinyl tonight. Found out my store WILL have Fall of Ideals, but NOT New American Gospel on Record Store Day...
I still think it may be a great record. I would rather give it the chance. In many ways Sabbath were changing and lost their way even after their 4th record. We haven't had a proper Sabbath record since the mid 1970s.
Still it's important when the metal grand- fathers put something out. It will be an album I like.
It looks like the single song"God Is Dead?" will be released April 19th. At almost 9 minutes long it will be a taste of what is to come in the album.
I reviewed the vinyl edition for our Classic Wax series at Metal-Fi. Just be aware, it's a picture disc and the sonic upgrade over the fairly well produced original CD isn't that big. You can definitely hear the bass more, and there's a bit more width and depth to the stereo image. The cymbals to my ears actually seemed a bit pushed back in the mix compared to the CD, but they sounded more natural and less "processed." That's really about it. Considering a good copy will cost you $100+, IMO it's not really worth it.

Just heard the single on the radio. Actually I quite like it...Ozzys definitely burnt out but for a bunch of really,really old burnouts it's pretty awesome to hear

Well if you have ever been to an Ozzfest he reads all the words off a monitor too. When I was at one they sprayed all this soap foam everywhere for a stage effect and even had a stagehand who was in charge of cleaning the monitor so Ozzy could read the lyrics.
They are old for Gods sake. But I still feel the passion in the song. I also love the bass line. It's them really. No one else could make that song. I fricken love it. Now I'll stop talking about it. Lol
