- Paul Brannigan
- Neon Knights. That Sabbath gained a new lease of life with Dio is evident from Heaven And Hell’s roaring album opener. With Ronnie singing of ‘circles and rings, dragons and kings’, Iommi delivers a scything riff that elevates the track skywards.
- Fairies Wear Boots. “It has so many elements of a classic Sabbath song – killer instrumental passages that evolve as they go, that swing feel, and the monster riffs from the great Mr Iommi.
- Children Of The Sea. First attempted, with different lyrics, while Ozzy was still in the band, Children Of The Sea was finally realised with Dio singing.
- Snowblind. “My favourite Black Sabbath song is Snowblind – the perfect song to be a teenager to of any age.” Nikki Sixx, Motley Crue.
- Black Sabbath (Black Sabbath, 1970) The song that started a subculture. The moment Tony Iommi lost the tips of his fingers in a factory accident at the age of 17 might have had a crucial impact on his playing style and Sabbath’s down-tuned sound, but this was the convergence of doomy sound and aesthetic that would capture imaginations around the world.
- Iron Man (Paranoid, 1970) Recorded with Ozzy mouthing through a spinning metal fan, that iconic opening line was the introduction to a track that would perfect doom metal right at its very beginning.
- Heaven And Hell (Heaven And Hell, 1980) Although “supergroup” collaborations only rarely strike real pay dirt, the title track to Sabbath’s first collaboration with Dio was towering proof of a match made in Heaven (And Hell).
- War Pigs (Paranoid, 1970) They might’ve felt like a heavyweight antidote to the easy-breezy hippy culture that was winding down at the time, but Sabbath were enthusiastically on board with its anti-war message.
The Best of Black Sabbath is a double CD compilation album by Black Sabbath released in 2000 on the Sanctuary Records label. Its 32 songs are presented chronologically from the band's first 11 albums, spanning the years 1970 to 1983.
- Matthew Wilkening
- 'Paranoid' This quick, blazing little burst of self-doubt, an obvious if not indisputable choice for Black Sabbath's best song, was reportedly whipped up in under a half an hour when the band realized they didn't have enough material for their second album.
- 'The Wizard' From 'Black Sabbath' (1970) Ozzy Osbourne on harmonica, ladies and gentlemen! Jeez, why doesn't he do that more often? Sabbath's blues roots, and a strong indication of how far they intended to push the genre, were laid bare on this surging track from their debut album.
- 'Iron Man' This all-time classic Black Sabbath song, featuring one of the first riffs any budding young guitarist should try to learn, is more complex lyrically than you might think.
- 'Children of the Grave' From 'Master of Reality' (1971) Once again, the positive messages of one of Black Sabbath's best songs gets lost by critics hung up on the band's devilish imagery.
- “Black Sabbath” Black Sabbath. With its dissonant diabolus in musica tritone guitar riff, haunting slow-tempo mood and chilling lyrics about Satan, “Black Sabbath” is ground zero for the genre that became known as heavy metal.
- “Sabbath Bloody Sabbath” Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. Tony Iommi once told Guitar World that “Sabbath Bloody Sabbath” came together in a “spooky old dungeon” in a castle in Wales, and it certainly sounds like it.
- “Symptom of the Universe” Sabotage. The first four minutes of “Symptom of the Universe”—not including the 49-second acoustic guitar instrumental intro titled “Don’t Start (Too Late)” often considered part of “Symptom”—are the true beginnings of thrash metal.
- “Hole in the Sky” Sabotage. Black Sabbath may be best known for their heavy riffs, but they could also swing as hard as they pummeled. Perhaps the best example of this is “Hole in the Sky,” which strikes like a 20-ton wrecking ball.
