In a new interview with Q Magazine, Tony Iommi discussed why Black Sabbath scrapped their plans to make a final album. According to Iommi, Geezer Butler was the main person who wasn’t interested in recording new material.
Here’s what he had to say:
“I’ve got so many riffs. I wrote a whole load of stuff for another album and we met up in L.A. but the others… well, Geezer didn’t particularly want to do another album. Then again, after you’ve just had a No. 1 album, where do you go from there? For the last LP, we did record 16 songs, so we may still put something out from that. We don’t know yet. Do I intend to stop playing? No. It’s the touring, really [that is difficult]. I’d love to do something with the guys. But, whatever happens, I will do something.”
