Black Sabbath is an iconic English rock band formed in Birmingham in 1968 by Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward. Their debut album in 1970, “Black Sabbath,” became a classic in the heavy metal genre, known for its dark and heavy sound. Throughout the 1970s, they released several successful albums, including “Paranoid” and “Master of Reality.” In the 1980s, Osbourne left the band and was replaced by Ronnie James Dio, resulting in the albums “Heaven and Hell” and “Mob Rules.” The band continued to evolve over the years with other lineup changes and releases, including “13” in 2013, which marked their first number one album in the UK. Black Sabbath was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2006 and remain one of the most influential and enduring bands in rock history.
