Union 5-3992 Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 I'm not even going to try. It's way too difficult for me because it changes every day. Some days Master of Reality is my favorite, other days Sabotage is. Or Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. Or Paranoid. Or Vol.4. See what I mean?!? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted October 22, 2016 Author Share Posted October 22, 2016 Master of Reality is very popular I notice, that's interesting. It seems to be very popular with modern stoner/doom fans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J2112YYZ Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Master Of RealitySabbath Bloody Sabbath (title track is probably my favorite metal song)ParanoidVol 4Black SabbathSabotageNever Say DieTechnical Ecstasy Their first six albums are untouchable classics. One of the best consecutive album streaks of all time. Big drop off on the last two. There's good songs on them but you could hear that the band was running out of gas and needed a change. It's amazing what the band did during this run though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeduck Posted October 22, 2016 Author Share Posted October 22, 2016 Master of Reality a top choice again eh? I have it 6th in my list and it's never been better than 4th or 5th at any time for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J2112YYZ Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 With me the first six are so close to each other. I could rearrange those albums in any order and it wouldn't bother one bit which one came out on top. As for MOR being the top choice, I think a lot of it has to do with the crushing metal brilliance of Iommi's riffs on the album. Such groundbreaking and genre defining work by him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Into the void, my favorite riff , fits this post I would say Master of realityBlack sabbath Then a toss up... I will add it was really a treat to see hand of doom live Edited October 22, 2016 by djflex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LakesideShark Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 For now, I'd say Vol. 4 is my number one, but I haven't listened to all of them in some time. I just got recently acquired them all on CD, so I'll re-listen to them and then I shall return. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YYZumbi Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Ouch, this is very hard! Black Sabbath is one of my favorite bands (Ozzy!). But I guess I can try, but do not take my list to serious: Black SabbathMaster Of RealitySabotageSabbath Bloody SabbathParanoidVol. 413 (why does no one count this album? Its a Ozzy-Sabbath album, and its awesome!)Never Say Die (I rarely listen to this album, Black Sabbath is dieing here)Technical Ecstasy (I never listen to this album, Black Sabbath is dead here, until they return with 13) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And a lot of time had passed by the time it was released, 35 years is a huge gap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozzy85 Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 What... are you trying to bait me into responding into something? Dude... Sabotage has been my long standing crown for this. Conceptual and heavy. Yes can go eat turds in 1975. The total on tour/paranoia freakout album. First album has its charms, though. Raw, bluesy jams. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath is like the worlds heaviest ELO album. No insult there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to be very popular with modern stoner/doom fans.I spent a few minutes deciding if I was going to make it number 1. War pigs is just too damn good so had to go with paranoid.
