Some of the best classic heavy metal!
Beautiful heavy album. Reign in Power Ozzy.
This album is beautifully heavy. A classic
At first I didnt like it but thats because i listened with the expectation of it sounding like OK Computer. when it didnt sound like alternative rock i was immediately turned off of it until i gave it a couple more tries where now i will give it a 4.
Really good album that kickstarted one of my favorite eras of music.
Great for an energy boost!
One of the best albums every made!
Epitath is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard.
