Like many above said, this is one of the scariest songs ever recorded. Scared the shit outta me when I first listened to it, unknowing. Also Sabbath werent all that big satanists. The satanist image was made up by their record company for publicity. But back to the song: Like one poster above said, the song was way ahead of its time. It had the scariness Marilyn Manson has today (only a lot scarier!) , the depressiveness of Nirvana, and the Heaviness of 80's Metal Bands like Slayer or Metallica but it fucking 1970! People mustve freaked out when they first heard this

They also sing about God and Jesus as well in some songs.

They are Christians, so they know Christ's message fairly well. Satan just happens to be a big part of that.

@OpiumForThePeople A book once best described it as "Rain begins to fall, a bell tolls and lightning strikes something ominous is coming.", "It's not complex, It's not Pretty...It's just metal in it's purest form."
