Birmingham's notoriously rebellious rock stars had everyone gathering "in their masses." Born out of factory noise, postwar grit, and working-class roots, Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward came together in 1968 to form what would become the heavy metal unit Black Sabbath. In just two years, they pioneered the genre with tracks like "Iron Man" and "War Pigs." Despite the "satanic" reputation that long hovered over the band, and Osbourne's infamous "bat-head chomping" incident, Black Sabbath were never actually the Devil's band. What they were, however, was dark by nature. So in tune with that creative energy, the band once wrote one of their biggest songs on a whim as a quick afterthought.
