Style: fundamental inflaming doom heavy metal
fifth longplay [1973], developping wantonly satanic topics, supported by numinous and darkly sounding music with esoteric edge, has turned into the corner stone of doom metal subgenre: such tracks as A National Acrobat, Killing Yourself to Live, Spiral Architect and the title hymn that has become the Sabbath trademark, are undeniable classics of heavy music; recent re-issue comes with a remastered sound and sixteen page booklet, featuring an essential story of the album, written in conjunction with Bill Ward, as well as rare picures and other memorabilia
