Black Sabbath by a mile. Deep Purple is one of those bands I could never get into.

first 5...wow...hmmm

Sabbath's best by most accounts...and Purples generally least known,  (and appreciated)


Deep Purple for me...  love their 'prog' period when Lord called the shots.. not Blackmore.

Both bands are great, but Deep Purple gets my vote, love their "prog related" period when Blackmore called the shots
 The early albums were great too

I find myself listening to Deep Purple a lot more than Black Sabbath, though both were important in the development of prog.

Black Sabbath by some way, for me...

Though I'm not really a major fan of any of these two bands, I kind of like their early outputs. And while I consider Deep Purple's output quite varied and influential, I tend to prefer Black Sabbath [and also consider their albums to be more consistent].

Easy poll this one, Purple by a million miles. No comparison in my book, though, funnily enough, I prefer Iommi to Blackmore! LOL

I listened to both bands today which is kind of strange. but I vote Sabbath.   Deep Purple's first 5 are good and all, but Sabbath's are incredible.  They had power in all instrumental departments.  That stuff will cut you and explode you at the same time.  Deep Purple lacks that kind of power.  MEGA POWER.

If you're basing it off the first 5 then Sabbath without a doubt. DP didn't start making an impact until their fourth, In Rock
