Originally released in 1970, Paranoid stands as one of the most influential heavy metal albums ever recorded. This 2022 reissue presents the classic record on heavyweight 180‑gram black vinyl, housed in a gatefold sleeve with restored artwork and album credits. Remastered for improved clarity while retaining the raw, ominous atmosphere of the original tapes, the album captures Black Sabbath at their most defining and genre‑shaping.

Featuring the legendary lineup of Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward, the album delivers a dark, powerful sound that helped forge the blueprint for heavy metal. With iconic tracks such as “War Pigs,” “Paranoid,” “Iron Man” and “Fairies Wear Boots,” this edition remains essential for collectors of hard rock and classic metal.
