Black Sabbath: Back to the Beginning


(The Alt VaultBLACK SABBATH are back one last time (or maybe money will get them to do another farewell tour and sell out all over again like most dinosaur rockers with a ghoul like Sharon Osbourne managing the lead singer Ozzy) | Back to the Beginning.

How did "heavy metal" ever even start in 1968? - What are Black Sabbath's best songs?

Aha, Mr. Faust, you admit it!
What is Black Sabbath/Ozzy's best song? Sure there's "War Pigs," "Iron Man," "Paranoid" (final song of the night), "Bark at the Moon," "Crazy Train," but sincerely it has to be the one that stayed relevant and fresh, the one that started it all, "Black Sabbath." It's a masterpiece that, with its down tuning, may have started the genre of dark heavy metal or black metal. (Although "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath" is pretty good, too, for a pretty song, even "Snowblind"). With Pantera and other legends wishing them a farewell, can BS really say goodbye?
