Regarding the whole Jesus decided there is no sophistication in heavy metal issue, my not valuable contribution:

Being the son of a carpenter, and some say a carpenter himself, Jesus liked a bit of wood -- Norwegian Wood or otherwise. While having a particular affinity for wood due to his upbringing, Iron Age/ Bronze Age Jesus might have enjoyed working with, and wielding, metal had he had the chance (In Matthew King James version it is said that he did say, "Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword". I assume the sword would be iron and not wood, and iron is a heavy metal. Also, I wouldn't think that common (ie. base) metal (such as iron and various bands) would be too base for him (base metal or metal with lots of bass). Being the guy with the commoner touch as he is often depicted, when it comes to heavy metals, I rather suspect that he would have preferred the ones that may be deemed less sophisticated. So, say, he might prefer iron and tin over gold and silver. While all four are heavy metals, two are more base.

That said, Judas Priest did betray Jesus, sort of.

Edited a bit, as in my desire for brevity I felt I did not add enough to the digression to be worthy of a PA post-at-tangents and failed to answer the initial question to boot.

I classify "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath" as heavy metal.

Sabbath is primarily a heavy metal band with experimental tendencies. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath is their most prog approach, and my person favorite because of that.

Not.today's for sure
The overwhelming amount of information on a daily basis restrains people from rewinding the news record archives to refresh their memories...

Of course Sabbath Bloody is their most prog albums also the reason that Wakeman drank with them in the studio (someone´s has said he also played more in the Sabbath album than Topographic).

He definitely spent more time drinking and playing darts with Sabbath than working on Tales with the boys, lol.
