Pretty great start to finish no doubt. The first half especially is amazing. Don't like the drum solo (or solos? Is there more than one?) but generally the whole thing just steamrolls you and exudes confidence and gloom and authority. You don't fuck with this album.

Amazing, though not as good as Master of Reality. Or maybe it is. I don't know. They're both incredible. I used to hate the drum solo (there is only one, Mercury), but it's grown on me. It may just be random wankery, but it has a certain charm that makes it work.

Their debut is best. Razz Mostly I just like that it kept up the sort of creepy aesthetic. I think I like the idea of Black Sabbath more than I actually like Black Sabbath. But this album is fine, I think, it has been a while since I last listened to it.

To make Cuba feel better, I've also never listened to this. And I've heard the popular songs so many times. I should get around to it soon. Anxious

Black Sabbath relistening has been looooooong overdue for me. I remember loving it, but it's been quite some time. I'm not really in the mood for them these days though. Ah, I guess the right moment will come anyway.
