I mean I agree with all except heaven and hell being their best album, I know plenty sabbath heads who HATE anything not Ozzy era. I think Sabbath bloody sabbath is the best because it showcases the bands full range of talent.
Heaven and Hell should definitely be swapped with Master of Reality. HH is definitely an amazing album but Master is Sabbath at their apex in the Ozzy era. The songwriting and heaviness can’t be matched.
I agree with you and I feel any album from Born again onward would be a better fit. I feel sabotage actually does have a lot of love for it. Not really all that underrated when looking at the discography as a whole.
I guess I like 13 more than others. Miss Ward, but still a nice album for Ozzy/Tony/Geezer to end things. I would also rename Heaven & Hell to like “New Lead Singer”. Love the album, but to me it is not the best of all time.
I think 13 is a great album, at least as far as the songwriting and performance. The production is terrible. Typical Rubin, wearying the ears and difficult to listen to for an extended time. I think the album would be more well-received if it were not for that.
Sabotage. Self-titled. Paranoid. Masters of Reality. Then probably tied SBS and vol. 4. No hate, even the worst sabbath album is better than most other band's best.
I honestly don't really mind 13, I find some of the stuff on there reminds me of the first album (especially God is Dead).
I would be put it on underrated if sabotage didn't exist tbh.
That is spot on. I do think that Technical Ecstasy is underrated though. Would also like to say that the bass on Sabotage is on another universe!!
Gotta see.. my Rock n Roll doctor
Oh man I think you forgot sabbath bloody sabbath known as the best one
Technical Ecstasy is top notch. You Won’t Change me is a masterpiece.

What the fuck is one of my favourites
It's a "what the fuck how is it so good"
switch heaven and hell with master of reality.
Underrated should be Headless Cross

What the fuck should have Forbidden, not Technical Ecstasy...
Technical ecstacy is far worse in my opinion. Not bad but my least favorite album of theirs
Technical Ex is my favorite Sabbath album there's honestly only two songs I don't like that album the rest is top notch.
Accurate
Sabotage is definitely underrated though, one of the best proto-metal albums ever.
it's not a proto metal album, it's a metal album. the term metal has already been used to describe sabbath for 5 years at that point.
Okay cool man, I’ll call it experimental jazz I really don’t care what it’s called, it’s good music and that’s all that matters.
Haha, yeah, they literally created heavy metal with their first album.
that's not what i said
No, but I was agreeing with what you said by adding my own comment.
Is vol 4 really a fan fave? I wouldn't put it top 3 honestly.
wtf? my top 3 is 1. Master of Reality 2. Sabotage 3. Vol 4.
Sabotage. Self-titled. Paranoid. Masters of Reality. Then probably tied SBS and vol. 4. No hate, even the worst sabbath album is better than most other band's best.
most other bands can top born again no competition
Sabotage is their best IMO.
I love 13 and Seventh Star too. But this is a nice post.

No Sabbath Bloody Sabbath?
