Frustrated with Sabbath and Iommi`s revolving door policies regarding band members, Geezer Butler goes solo here with a menacing and angry band hell bent on putting heavy music back on the map. Geezer wrote all of Sabbaths lyrics back in the day and his evil as ever morbid style is just as mean and awesome here as it ever was. Killer riffs, Melodical vocal harmonies, and good quality music describes this cd well.

"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"

I've never been a fan of replacing singing with screaming, so I didn't like this album at first. Once it sinks in, however, you can't get enough. My favorite song on here is House of Clouds. This song is just insanely fast and heavy.

Like most other people, I came across G//Z/R through their song (The Invisible) on the Mortal Kombat Soundtrack album. The version of that song on this album is way better but anywho, what else can I really say about Plastic Planet? The music is so great on this album that upon completion you have a huge smile on your face. Its heavy, its soft (when it needs to) and has many a great chorus'. But the highlight of the whole album is "Giving Up The Ghost". That song is OUTSTANDING. I can't get enough of it and I believe it will be one of those songs that you never grow tired of. Its the icing on this G//Z/R cake of great tunes so get this album NOW!

I first heard of this band through the "Mortal Kombat" soundtrack. The song was "The Invisible" and once i heard it, i was hooked. I heard that this album was out of print, but i just happened to see it on the shelf the other day. I bought it immediately. It's got some very cool guitar riffs, heavy basswork, and of course Burton C Bell's trademark roar and eerie singing. It sounds killer if you have a good system in your car. "Black Science" is pathetic compared to this, so ignore it if you see it. This album rules. A must buy if you can find it.

This album is great Burton Bell is a great singer The Black Silence Album is great also a different singer,, But his singing style is also good!

An extremely heavy album, great lyrics. Some might say the lyrics are a bit corny, but it's hella better than smeone singing about having a date. Music is great, and lets face it, Bill Ward and Geezer Butler wrote the majority of the music/ lyrics in the majority of the black sabbath songs.

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.

This proves Geezer Butler doesn't need Ozzy, however, he does need Burton C. Bell, 'cuz the new singer on Black Science sucks.

this cd kicks serious BUTTT!!
