This started a new part of Sabbath which was more complicated in it's structure and more "metal like" than the two before which sound a bit more like heavy slow blues album.ĭon't just automatically pick "Paranoid" as the best Sabbath album because it has two "hits". This also proved that Sabbath could make more than two wicked albums in a row. I feel like Masters of Reality is a lot more dramatic than the others. Why couldn't the over produced and uninspired '13' sound like this? Ditch the 'pro-tools' (and overrated producers) and record a follow up on an analogue 8-track! (and don't forget Bill Ward this time, his 'ham-fisted jazz' drumming is integral to the Sabbath sound! ) Many have tried to emulate the sound - so far all have failed. Much better riffs than (the slightly overrated) 'Paranoid'. More people say that Paranoid is better than Master of Reality. I'm not saying that Master of Reality is a bad album - it's great! But just because it came first in page displaying the "Greatest Black Sabbath Albums", don't argue against it. Since when did more hits on an album matter in the metal genre? Well, usually more hits, means more people prefer the song. You have the drowsy ballad of Planet Caravan, the heaviness of Electric Funeral and Rat Salad, the riffing of War Pigs and Iron Man, and, as a proof that Black Sabbath truly is the best there is, you have the masterpiece that is Paranoid. It just happens that all of those are obtained this album. If you were to think of three Sabbath songs, it would probably be Paranoid, War Pigs and Iron Man. That's a bit like saying that the jazz song with the most trombones in it makes it the best jazz song. Master of Reality maybe the heaviest, but that doesn't mean it's the best. Each song is a crown Jewel in its own respect, and the replay value is off the scale. But none of them can compare to Paranoid.
Heaven and Hell was good, Master of Reality was good and so was Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. Influence, impact and unparalleled quality make 'Paranoid' Black Sabbath's greatest achievement. Fortifying their sound into indisputable heavy metal, the Birmingham quartet cranked out war anthems "War Pigs" and "Hand of Doom" while staying political by bashing skinheads on "Fairies Wear Boots." The barren "Electric Funeral" hits on style over substance regarding simplicity while "Iron Man" and "Paranoid" saw Tony Iommi move up to the rank of Riff General. What can't be argued is that their second album, 'Paranoid,' is lined start to finish with not only great Sabbath cuts, but all-time heavy metal classics. It's just that I've got to get off my butt and go for it.When it comes to Black Sabbath's discography, everyone has their personal favorites. "Even if I manage one show, then fall over. So whatever I make of it is entirely up to me now. I had my last surgery in June, I can't have any more. I've got a goal: the goal is to get back onstage. I don't think that I'll be here in another 25 years. "I am going to put 110 per cent into getting myself out there," he latter emphasized. If I put every effort into it and I still can't, at least I can't say that I haven't tried." I have a goal: that next summer I will be onstage. But I don't mind, as long as I can fuckin' walk around without falling on my head. I mean, I'll probably always have a limp. "My balance is all fucked up, but I've got to keep going. "I've just got to get back into a rhythm again," Ozzy told Kerrang!. The Prince of Darkness has undergone numerous surgeries over the last few years, but he's currently in recovery and has a plan to get back out there to play for his adoring fans.

While Ozzy seems to have no interest in reuniting with his pioneering metal bandmates, he does have a clear goal in mind for the near future - getting back onstage for full shows. "We put that band to bed," he continued. "And if he wants to Sabbath album, I'm not doing it!"
Maybe the tracks he did on my album was like what Sabbath should have been had we stayed together, but I want to take it away from Sabbath. There's no getting away from the fact that, when he plays with me, it'll be some kind of a reflection of that. "If Ozzy Osbourne and Tony Iommi do an album together, it's going to sound like a Sabbath album," Ozzy said, upon being asked if he has more music in store with Iommi. "Tony was the sound of Sabbath.
