Paranoid [LP]

Black Sabbath's second album took the heavy, doom-laden sound of their debut and sharpened it into songs that defined a genre. Tony Iommi's riffs, Geezer Butler's bass, Bill Ward's swinging drums and Ozzy Osbourne's wail come together on "War Pigs", "Iron Man" and the breakneck title track, while "Planet Caravan" offers a hazy, psychedelic detour. Released in 1970, it became the band's first UK number one and remains a cornerstone of heavy metal. This Sanctuary single LP import reissue presents the original eight-track running order across two sides of vinyl.
