From the modern era very much this. A great debut where you can listen to every track without skipping.
Edited to add, Royal blood that is, not GnR. They're awful
I just hope that Royal Blood can follow their debut with more cracking music! They are also awesome live!Edited to add, Royal blood that is, not GnR. They're awful

As for GnR, I am no big fan but I liked their debut when it first came out.... Unfortunately they released every track as a single and it all got played to death so I lost interest.
Their subsequent albums all seamed to be very average/poor and when I saw them live on the GnR/Metallica tour I was not overly impressed.

Exactly what I was thinking - how many of the other bands mentioned in this thread were hugely influenced by this. Tne opening track alone still has to be one of the best opening songs to any debut offering

How many were influenced by Zep, whose first album came out 2 years before Sabbath? Ozzy has confessed to a huge LZ influence. During the 70s the two bands even jammed together.Exactly what I was thinking - how many of the other bands mentioned in this thread were hugely influenced by this.

Zep was more hard rock than HM, Sabbath brought doom like no one else, point me in the direction of anything similar and I will be genuinely surprised. interloper said:

Zep provided the percussion of HM, Sabbath some of the doom. Doom guitar work on In A Gadda Da Vida by Iron Butterfly preceded Sabbath by 2 years. The term 'heavy metal ' was coined by Steppenwolf in 1969. Sabbath were not solely responsible for heavy metal or doom.

Except none of the above did heavy as a complete package and that is the key.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIVe-rZBcm4

If you say so, lol, but I thought you said Sabbath started the whole genre - when clearly they didn't and Ozzy himself says so.Iron Butterfly, 1968, from their eponymous first album. Very Sabbath, two years earlier than the first Sabbath album.
