Black Sabbath - 1995 - Get A Grip FLAC


 

 "Get a Grip" - is the 2nd song of the album Forbidden this has a very groovy stoner rock riff. Tony Martin sings in his lower register, and I love the fact that he's really come into his own at this point. He's no longer trying to copy a style for the sake of transitioning or whatever. He's the Singer now (or at least was), and I hear that confidence in his voice in this song. This song is solid. Once again another single with only one song.

01 Get a Grip
