RESURRECTIONS

eleased in 2006, ’s (Temple Of Mystery) now sounds even more spookily out of time; songs were written circa 1977-83, chief debts are to early Sabbath and Jethro Tull, and the vibe is snuck out a demo as early as 1982, but as you’ll hear on their self-effacingly titled compilation of early home recordings, (Mighty Music) , their early sound was more indebted to Sabbath than most Euro-thrash pioneers. Iommi vibes remain on speedier 1984-86 material, propelled along fuzzy ancient tape ribbon with slapdash charm.
