I guess I have to go with Sabotage because they were really pissed at a lot of people when they did that one and it shows.

Master Of Reality is my absolute favorite. Close choices: Heaven and hell, Born again, Paranoid, and the debut.

I'm not very familiar with Black Sabbath, so I don't vote. I have heard Paranoid, which is way too heavy for my subtle taste. Volume 4 is a highlight among hard rock albums; it easily hits the 4-star mark for me.

Sabotage is my favorite, followed by Heaven and Hell.

My fav all times Black sabbath album is Heaven and hell, followed by Master of reality (ozzy era) and Headless cross (Martin era), but I like BS almost all minus Born again.

Master of Reality. After that, Sabotage.

Oh, I love Sabotage. When I first heard it, it freaked me out big time. It was some of the heaviest music I'd ever heard. The instrumental Don't Start (Too Late) scared the hell out of me (it's kind of creepy), leading into the heaviest riff of all time, Symptom of the Universe. 

It, and Master of Reality, are my favourite albums by Black Sabbath. They're both as doom metally as all hell, and heavy as buggery. They both have this all-emcompassing sense of doom hanging over them. 

I also love Vol. 4 and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath a lot. I agree about overplaying. I still love the debut and Paranoid a lot, but I have listened to them a lot of times now. The scary impact they had has dimmed a bit now. 

Oh, what the hell, I just love the first six albums by the original lineup! I've give them all a vote, because multiple voting is allowed.
Hello, mirror. So glad to see you, my friend. It's been a while...

My vote had to go to Sabotage. Everything that makes Sabbath great is crammed magically into that album somehow! Big smile

Master Of Reality is my favourite, but Paranoid and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath are just as good.

In the end the love you take is equal to the love you made...

Sabbath Bloody Sabbath followed by Black Sabbath and Paranoid.
