The band released their self-titled debut album in 2020, and in April 2022 released Vol.2. This enetered the Billboard jazz album at number 6. Both albums got special Record Store Day Mono editions, which sold out quickly.

The band holds a ficitional backstory, as being the original writers of the tracks which would later be made famous by Black Sabbath.

The story the band spins includes being at the forefront of the UK jazz movement in the late Sixties, were they recorded two albums in 1969, which were never released.

According to the fake backstory, due to legal disputes with a session player, the recording of the second album was abandoned and never mentioned again.

When the news reached the band leader, Milton Keanes, he suffered a heart attack, and was hospitalised. This meant that the record label cancelled the release of the first album.

Once Keanes had recovered and was released from hospital in September 1970, he discovered that a band in Birmingham had released two albums containing metal versions of his songs.

Since then, his record label did not exist anymore, with the label owner in jail. The Jazz Sabbath albums had been recalled and destroyed when the warehouse had burned down in June 1970, a product of insurance fraud from the label owner.

With no physical proof, and the Birmingham band continously releasing more albums of Keane's songs, the members of Jazz Sabbath parted ways.

In 2019, Jazz Sabbath reunited after the discovery of the debut album's master tapes, and the re-release of the album in 2020 left the Birmingham band exposed.

This story carries on with the supposed discovery of the 1968 tapes, which will be released in November 2024.

The band, led by pianist Adam Wakeman, is said to explore 'the boundaries between jazz and the songs that defined heavy metal.'

The band has already seen success with 'rave reviews' from rock and jazz media, as well as sold out shows in Europe.
