Burton C. Bell is the next Ozzy

""Plastic Planet" is completely original. If you thought you were getting a second Sabbath, your totally wrong. G//Z/R is more darker than Sabbath was. It's underground bands like S.O.D and G//Z/R that make the underground world of music greater than the mainstream. Haunting industrial sounds mixed with Bell's harsh and errie vocals make for one fantastic album. Best song: "Catonic Eclpse""

GREAT!

"This album is full of power and energy. It has a Sabbath ring to it but a little different. Of course it is as heavy as Sabbath always was but the vocals are different here, featuring Burton C. Bell from Fear Factory :) who tries to take Ozzy's spot as vocalist. Of course, no one can be Ozzy (and never will), but Bell really steps up to the mic here. The best song on it (in my opinion), however, is "Driveboy Shooting". What a remarkable riff. It is so heavy, you'd swear Iommi is behind the guitars and Ward is banging on the drums putting double-bass in every part avalaible. It is hard to believe only one member is from Sabbath. This is probably the best album I bought in a year. There aren't any many of these albums around, so... Also, I heard this song on the album, "The Invisible", and what a surprise, I heard this song before. After listening to it twice, I remembered it was the "Mortal Kombat Soundtrack". Amazing. Butler is, and always will be, the heaviest bass player of all time."
