Forbidden is the eighteenth studio album by British heavy metal band Black Sabbath, released in June 1995. This also saw the reunion of Black Sabbath's TYR-era lineup from 1990, with the return of Neil Murray and Cozy Powell. It was the last album to feature Tony Martin on vocals and the last by the band until 2013 when Ozzy Osbourne and Geezer Butler returned for the album 13.
The album's opening track, "The Illusion of Power", features Ice-T of the band Body Count in the bridge, delivering a spoken word part. Body Count band member Ernie C also produced, recorded and mixed the album.
