“The blood runs thick with Black Sabbath but the heart needs a bit of Roy Orbison.”
The Earth Below’s “Nothing Works Vol. 2: Hymns For Useless Gods” covers a lot more musical and lyrical landscape than the earlier EPs. Intense and powerful right through yet laced with gentleness and sensitivity, this album is a lot more ambitious in its scale.
