The track features an early example of the diabolus in musica in heavy metalProblems playing this file? See.Black Sabbath 's music and lyrics were quite dark for the time. The opening track is based almost entirely on a interval played at slow tempo on the electric guitar. In the 2010 Classic Albums documentary on the making of the band's second album Paranoid, Geezer Butler claims the riff was inspired by 'Mars, the Bringer of War', a movement in Gustav Holst's.

Iommi reinterpreted the riff slightly and redefined the band's direction. Ward told Classic Albums, 'When Oz sang 'What is this that stands before me?' It became completely different.this was a different lyric now, this was a different feel. I was playing drums to the words.' The song's lyrics concern a 'figure in black' which bassist Geezer Butler claims to have seen after waking up from a nightmare.

In the liner notes to the band's 1998 live album the bassist remembers:I'd been raised a Catholic so I totally believed in the Devil. There was a weekly magazine called that I started reading which was all about Satan and stuff. That and books by and, especially The Devil Rides Out.

I'd moved into this flat I'd painted black with inverted crosses everywhere. Ozzy gave me this 16th Century book about magic that he'd stolen from somewhere.

I put it in the airing cupboard because I wasn't sure about it. Later that night I woke up and saw this black shadow at the end of the bed. It was a horrible presence that frightened the life out of me! I ran to the airing cupboard to throw the book out, but the book had disappeared. After that I gave up all that stuff. It scared me shitless.Similarly, the lyrics of the song 'N.I.B.'

Are written from the point of view of, who falls in love with a human woman and 'becomes a better person' according to lyricist Butler. Contrary to popular belief, the name of that song is not an abbreviation for; according to Osbourne's autobiography it is merely a reference to drummer Bill Ward's pointed at the time, which was shaped as a pen-nib. The lyrics of two other songs on the album were written about stories with mythological themes.

'Behind the Wall of Sleep' is a reference to the H. Lovecraft short story, while ' was inspired by the character of from. The latter includes harmonica performed by Osbourne.

The band also recorded a cover of ', a song that had been an American hit for the band. In his autobiography, Iommi admits the band reluctantly agreed to do the song at the behest of their manager Jim Simpson, who insisted they record something commercial.Artwork. Alex Dmochowski.
