Paranoid by Black Sabbath

from Classic Albums. Hosted by Stevie Nix · host Stevie Nix

Paranoid is one of the most transformative albums in rock history. Released in 1970, Paranoid is a bridge between the blues-rock experimentation of the late 1960s and the full-blown heavy metal movement that would dominate the following decades. Each of its eight tracks can be traced as the genesis of entire metal subgenres.Featured songs:War PigsIron ManPlanet CaravanFairies Wear BootsHand Of DoomParanoid
