Seen by most Doom fans as the originators of Doom-metal and universally hailed as the main creators of the entire heavy metal genre. They originally started out under the name Earth (not to be confused with the entry under Earth further down the bandlist) but changed their name to Black Sabbath before releasing their debut album. Their earlier work in particular served as inspiration for the first Doom-metal bands and to this day a lot of the more traditionally oriented bands closely follow the path set by Black Sabbath. The original Black Sabbath have all become well known "celebrities" in their own right with Ozzy being the most well known, but other famous names have also served in Black Sabbath, such as Dio. For Doom-metal however, the years with Ozzy were the most influential. Most people will be aware of the song from this period entitled 'Paranoid' (it actually made it to the hitparades!). Most songs from this time are characterized by a mixture of Blues, Darkness and Rock 'N Roll. Most of Black Sabbath's albums were released, re-released and released again, often with different track listings.
Fav. album = Black Sabbath
Fav. song = Black Sabbath
Fav. era = Ozzy

Gravechild6 Mathias Darkheart I would've said they're Classic Heavy Metal confused Nope, Traditional Doom. I just re-read this and I have to make a correction. It was just the Ozzy era that was Doom the other eras (Dio, Gillan, and Martin) were indeed Heavy Metal.

The War Starter Planet Caravan is probably my favorite song. Good song for relaxing, but I'd say Black Sabbath is my favorite song.

I love Dio! But only in his solo albums.
I just don't think he mixes well with Sabbath. Do you agree?
My favourite is "War Pigs". The solo was heaven to my ears!
