This is Pod of Doom, a podcast dedicated to the British band Black Sabbath! The hosts of Every Pod You Cast return to discuss all things Sabbath: Justin Mancini of TheCineMaverick.com & Cinema Joes, Chris Mancini, and Randy Allain of Media/Lit will be covering the Ozzy Osbourne and Ronnie James Dio eras of the metal pioneers.

In the fourth official episode of the season, Chris, Justin, and Randy tackle Sabbath’s underrated (but aptly named) fourth volume. They relish Geezer Butler’s anti-jingoism, contemplate the band’s increasing use of acoustic instrumentation, and debate the merits of stiff piano ballads. And of course, they recommend other artists they’ve been enjoying for your listening pleasure.
