The third studio album from Black Sabbath, ‘Master of Reality’, gets a deluxe 2LP and 2CD treatment. The pioneering heavy metal group’s debut is bolstered by alternative and instrumental bonus tracks on the 2 disc and 2LP vinyl deluxe versions.
'Master of Reality' is Black Sabbath's iconic third album, a dark and heavy landmark that helped shape the blueprint for metal. Released in 1971, it dives deeper into the band's signature mix of crushing riffs, brooding atmosphere, and doom-laden lyrics.
With classics like "Sweet Leaf" and "Children of the Grave," the album combines Sabbath's signature heaviness with a more experimental edge, including the use of down-tuned guitars and eerie, psychedelic elements.
