Well, it's a classic, ain't it? I've never been the hugest Sabbath fan, or Ozzie fan for that matter, but this album is a classic. And while it stirred quite a few pots when it was released, it seems fairly tame now. War Pigs is a great political start to any album, and here it establishes Sabbath's second album as arrived more fully formed than their first effort. Paranoid has a youthful honesty to it that they seemed to lose as substance, and fame drove the band to be overcome by their own personas. If you can't name a song off this album, you're probably not much a Rock fan.
