Black Science is an album by GZR {Cd TVT TVT 6020-2 [US][1997]} (for this album the band was known as Geezer). It was originally released on July 1, 1997. The cover art for this album is intended to represent the Black Sabbath song, "Hand of Doom".
Geezer on the Doctor Who connection in the song Among the Cybermen:
"Yes, the lyrics were originally about the death of Doctor Who. The original chorus was "Doctor Who lies dead among the Cybermen", about the final battle of Dr. Who, but was supposed to be symbolic of the end of childhood. I changed it because I thought it sounded a bit silly. Most of the album is about growing up in the era of Sixties television, and its influence on me."
As mentioned, the lyrics were changed slightly and now the lyrics say 'Tell me who lies dead among the cybermen'.
