Rolling Stone's 131st greatest album of all time
Superb Sabbath album. It has their best known songs Paranoid, Iron Man and the phenomenal War Pigs. Some low points outwith those, but also some welcome respite from Ozzy on the instrumental sections.

Woah
Trippy, lucid, easy-listening. Mac's practised sound comes out in full force in this album. Be it the eerie vocals of Dreaming, or the pure instrumental of Boe Zahh. Recommended for anyone who likes a new version of 'dad-rock'

Rolling Stone's 486th greatest album of all time (420th in the 2020 list)
A great, toe-tapping soul and, at times, jazz album. A couple of standout tracks (Happy Feelin and Africano) and generally instrumental so you can work without needing to sing along :P
Kevin Morby recommended track Ene Alantchi Alnorem (I Can't Live Without You) by Mulatu Astatke in New York–Addis–London: The Story of Ethio Jazz 1965–1975 by Mulatu Astatke in Music (curated)
fireflyhearts (29 KP) rated Aeterno by Aviators in Music
Dec 21, 2019 (Updated Dec 21, 2019)
Like Nothing Else I've Heard
This is a strange album. It's almost purely instrumental, for one thing. (The first actual lyrics are in the penultimate track). And every song sounds like something out of a really dramatic movie. I like it, but it's probably the weakest Aviators album. Recommended to diehard fans only; if you're just getting into this artist, then you'd be better off listening to their newer work.
