Jeden ze základních kamenů hardrockové muziky 70. let a skupina, která naznačila další ubírání rockové hudby směrem k heavy metalu. Pozdější metalové proudy navazovaly i na jejich složku textovou a ideovou (okultismus, mysticismus apod.)....

Píseň: Spiral Architect

Interpret:
Black Sabbath
Album:
Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
Sorcerers of madness 
Selling me their time 
Child of god sitting in the sun 
Giving peace of mind 
Fictional seduction 
On a black snow sky 
Sadness kills the superman 
Even fathers cry 
Of all the things I value most of all 
I look inside myself and see 
My world and know that it is good 
You know that I should 
Superstitious century 
Didn't time go slow 
Separating sanity 
Watching children grow 
Synchronated undertaker 
Spiral skies 
Silver ships on plasmic oceans 
In disquise 
Of all the things I value most in life 
I see my memories and feel their warmth 
And know that they are good 
You know that I should 
Watching eyes of celluloid 
Tell you how to live 
Metaphoric motor-replay 
Give, give, give! 
Laughter kissing love 
Is showing me the way 
Spiral city architect 
I build, you pay 
Of all the things I value most of all 
I look upon my earth and feel the warmth 
And know that it is good
