Yeah but Martin's vocals sound more like Chuck Schuldiner from Death. But more well articulated and more charismatic. It's abit like black metal vocals.
Sabbat sounded their absolute best on the Friday Rock Show session on BBC Radio 1. Mainly, in part at least, due to the superior recording equipment and supremely talented personnel the BBC could offer back in the 1980's. As a result the (still wonderful) History of a Time to Come sounded weaker and tinnier. The Beeb had way more money than Noise records back then. Want an example of what I'm harping on about??? Listen to the BBC session track The 13th Disciple then compare it to its later inception duly named Horned is the Hunter on their debut. I think the radio "original" is way more brutal. PS - Interesting aside: As others have noted you can really hear the Mercyful Fate influence on this version of Tale and I feel MF themselves never sounded better than their own Friday Rock Show session. Both bands benefitting from the crisper yet rawer production. Both Sabbat and MF's "problem" - if that is the right word - was they were too far ahead of their time. Too unique and too advanced for an unsuspecting audience of the 1980's. No one had heard ANYTHING like King Diamond's vocals when their session landed. And a few years later no one had heard anything like Martin's when his otherwordly snarl either. Such as Death Metal and 2nd wave Black Metal were still another year or two away. The only thing near were Napalm Death who also benefited from the BBC on their now infamous Peel Sessions. Pioneering stuff that is only just being realised by new fans now.
I emember seeing them in 87 in Coventry probably at the general wolfe and there may have been about 10 people there we had a great night but there wasnt the support then . Oddly enough the suuport band that night turned into terrorvison and became big in the charts for a second. It was good night and one to remember. A great band and played a great set that night just ended up disapointed they never got bigger as they deserved it
Yes. Dani Filth states Sabbat's 2nd album "Dreamweaver" as a major influence. He also joined Martin Walkyier in a cover of "For those who died" and both bands toured together during the brief reunion of Sabbat
Because the band hate it and they want to keep everything friendly between label and artists. Just like Cold Lake wasn't in the CF box. I'd rather it was in too but
One of the greatest thrash bands ever. Couldn't help but notice that this version has a very strong Mercyful Fate vibe...fucking awesome!!!!!!!!!!

Martin is an amazing lyricist
One of the most underrated metal bands of all time. And the first of a long history of great English metal bands.
NOBODY writes lyrics like Martin Walkyier! A gifted wordsmith!
Maybe at one time. But I would argue Danny Filth is just as great, but in a more poetic way
@@thatoldcomicsmell56 I stand by my opinion. Walkyier > Filth
Read "The way of Wyrd" then read the lyric sheets for Dreamweaver. Pure genius.
Great band! Gone but not forgotten!
I loved the Friday Rock Show sessions. I remember I taped rham and played to death.
Best. Thrash. Metal. Band. Ever.
Wow! I wasn't expecting this
I listened this way back .
Finally a re visit 2023
Magnificent.
Whoever touched up these old recordings(Andy Sneap maybe?) Did an outstanding job.
The animation and the style of the video is pretty frickin awesome for its time.
Th I s band should've been so much bigger. Superb band in my view
the live films are from East Berlin 1990, with Kreator, Tankard and Coroner, it was an incredible concert

So glad I saw them in NYC!
I was there too! Andy gave me a guitar pick
Andy has done so many great things since Sabbat! I was with them form the moment I got their demo Fragments of a Faith Forgotten!
🤘🤘
Awesome
HAIL SABBAT!
Love.
Sàbbt fell asleep
A good thrash record will keep me awaķe
this is proto black metal 👊👊👊🤘
Syncronicity thrash legends

Great song. :D
A velocidade dos riffs é mt foda. Brutal e rápido, beira o death metal. Bom demais
Baloume!
Dayum 🔥🙌🔥🍳🧙♂️🎸
Some Inspiration for Cradle?

Why not include the "Mourning Has Broken" album in this box? That album is so underrated!
Because the band hate it and they want to keep everything friendly between label and artists. Just like Cold Lake wasn't in the CF box. I'd rather it was in too but
@@sixzerothreeonesevensixnine it's not even included in their discography on their website
I hate Something like that, stand to your past and History
Because it sucks.
I have to disagree in some ways as back in the day the Friday Rock Show was a radio channel.
You could not broadcast vide on them by radio back then
How fast?
Between threath and speed-metall
And death/black metal.
Music's got more bass and the vocals are higher pitched.
I think I prefer the vocals on the album and the music here.
