Black Sabbath Vol. 4 is the fourth album by the British heavy metal band Black Sabbath, released in September 1972. The album was originally to be titled Snowblind, after one of several songs referring to cocaine use, and features several Sabbath classics, such as "Tomorrow's Dream", "Snowblind", "Supernaut" and "Changes".

最“哥特式”瞬间：“IronMan”(铁人)中Tony Iommi令人难忘的“圣歌”式吉他演奏。 BlackSabbath》(黑色安息日)原是1963年摄制的一部鲜为人知的独立电影，这队来自伯明翰的4人组合原队名为Earth，在看了这部电影后才改为Black Sabbath，这以后乐队带着醉意的摇滚坏小子形象便开始风靡全球。Black Sabbath的音乐背景是爵士和布鲁斯，但他们却是将重金属和哥特式风格结合得最好的乐队。《Paranoid》是乐队的第二张专辑，也上到过排行榜的前列，标志着他们英式摇滚风格的成熟。他们的音乐往往预示着灾难，而且十分夸张。
