Masterpiece. War Pigs is one of the greatest anti-war songs of all time, if not THE greatest. Iron Man has one of the most classic and recognizable riffs of all time. Paranoid is so simple and yet brilliant. You even got your psychedelic stuff going on in Planet Caravan.

A seminal teenage album personally, I tend to prefer Master of Reality and their debut these days largely cause they feel more like complete albums. This one feels more like a compilation of metal anthems with a somewhat tenous connection, especially in terms of overall mood) but it's best songs are killer

A stunning album. Early Sabbath were just great, and it comes as no surprise to myself in my recent excursions into metal that the bands I've found most pleasing to my ears are the ones who appear to be the more direct descendants of that sound (doom and sludge bands, mostly, although my tastes do reach beyond those parameters). Their first six albums are all stunning, and this is probably in my top three. Volume 4 is my favourite, but none of the other five are too far behind. And, just to reiterate what Jason said, 'War Pigs' is an amazingly powerful song.

One of four albums I've yet to listen to from the top 100.
Still doesn't really appeal to me.

I mean, it's one of the 3 metal albums on my overall chart so I like it.

nearly perfect, every song is great, there is no best song on the best albums ever, if i had to pick favorites i would say electric funeral and fairies wear boots.
i don't put this on my list because it is kind of a given
