    Came for "Supernaut" many years ago, but stayed for the rest. One of the best, if not THE best, Black Sabbath album. Pretty much a three-way tie between this, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, and Paranoid. Picking my favorite really depends on my mood on any given day. There are worse problems to have.
  • Great car jams!

    This album is great and is certainly one I headbang to in my car on long trips. Hell I do that on the way to the store just down the street!

    The music today just ain't the same. This album should be in every Sabbath/ hard rock/ metal collection.

    One of the best rock n roll albums I've ever heard. In my opinion, Wheels of Confusion is the best Sabbath song!
  • One of my personal favorites

    You could say that all early BS albums were "the best", and this is clearly one of them, but behind their self-titled debut album, this is my personal second favorite. It's much heavier - maybe "sludgier" - than most stuff they did before AND after in many ways. The thick and dark distortion is a tone most metal guitarists still can't replicate to this day, the subject matter is mythical and foreboding, and the overall feel is mysterious in such a way that the album seems to tell a story. That's why you need to listen to the entire album from start to finish - individual tracks don't make a lot of sense here, as this is definitely not an album of popular radio-play tracks (though it's not really a concept album in the typical sense). In my opinion, this was the last album where they actually sounded like classic "Black Sabbath". Their next release, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, while a huge musical and commercial success, marked a big change in their sound, attitude, and direction.
  • Best of the 70's

    While all of the albums that Sabbath released in the '70s are excellent, each having it's own unique charm, if I had to pick a favorite it would be "Vol. 4". I always spin both sides of this LP in it's entirety...it simply oozes eerie atmosphere...in my opinion, it is also one of the best sounding rock records of it's era, as the mix is gorgeous.
  • Classic heavy metal

    End is a little weird, funny how movies all use word FX now. Slow down heavy metal by five times and you got this album. I think thats why I like it, sort of subdued and guitar in the backround. Bill Ward at his best. Didn't get good reviews at the time, but I think is my favorite now. Slyte right, awesome headphone album.
  • Great!

    Every song is great, except for FX. FX is just weird. I think the second half of the album is better.
  • You'll be straining to hear!

    If you're looking for remastered , louder versions do not buy from iTunes. The first six sabbath albums are awesome but these are not up to par with their counterparts remasters(I.e. Zeppelin,Beatles, Stones, etc) . The 2 disc set released Symptom of the Universe has much more contemporary sound! Save your $.!!
  • Buy the album, not select tracks

    This is my first time listening to the whole album front to back, and some songs I never heard before. Young folk like me: buy the whole album, sit down and listen to the whole album. It's an experience very unlike modern records where basically every song is a single; no, here they're all great songs but they're better together. Don't just turn on a song quick while you have a couple minutes in the car. Go to your room, put on a nice pair of headphones, let the music drown out all distractions, and just let it take you on a journey. That's how you listen to classics like this.
