“Paranoid” – Songs Ranked
I always knew “Paranoid” by Black Sabbath was considered a classic, especially since I love a few of the famous tracks dearly, but it’s only after sitting down and listening to the whole thing that I finally appreciate it fully.

The New Sound (Geordie Greep) – Every Song Ranked
I wasn’t too familiar with black midi’s work before their split, but I knew the song “Welcome to Hell” and absolutely loved it.
