Happy 50th Birthday Black Sabbath

Forums:

50 years ago today, Black Sabbath released their first album "Black Sabbath," which has since inspired an entire legion of doom metal and sludge rock bands.   The title track "Black Sabbath" is to this day one of the most evil songs ever recorded.

How did I know who posted this by reading the title?

Favorite album is Master of Reality. I can think of a lot of albums that could use more coughing, actually.

I’m listening to Blizzard of Ozz at the moment.

Verse 1]
What is this that stands before me?
Figure in black which points at me
Turn 'round quick and start to run
Find out I'm the chosen one
Oh, no!

[Verse 2]
Big black shape with eyes of fire
Telling people their desire
Satan's sitting there, he's smiling
Watches those flames get higher and higher
Oh, no, no, please, God, help me!

[Outro]
Is it the end, my friend?
Satan's coming 'round the bend
People running 'cause they're scared
The people better go and beware
No, no, please, no!

 

My favorite is every single album....but if I had to choose....Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, for "Killing Yourself to Live".

Fuck yea, Black Sabbath rocks! 

Personal favorites to trip to way back when we were teenagers, Paranoid and Sabotage.
