Description

Paranoid is Black Sabbath’s legendary second album — the record that defined heavy metal’s sound and attitude. This Rhino High Fidelity edition is a premium audiophile reissue, AAA cut from the original analogue master tapes by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio, and pressed on 180g heavyweight vinyl at Optimal Media. Housed in a glossy gatefold tip-on jacket with an obi-strip and a four-page insert featuring commentary by engineer Tom Allom, this edition delivers unmatched sonic clarity and vintage presentation.

Featuring iconic tracks like “War Pigs,” “Iron Man,” “Electric Funeral,” and the title track “Paranoid,” the album blends doom-laden riffs, political fury, and psychedelic textures into a timeless metal blueprint.
