I'm a metalhead and never got excited about Sabbath beyond appreciating them for their contributions as co-founders of the genre. Used to headbang to "Iron Man" and "Paranoid" back when those songs (and I) were still fairly new.
These days few of us can even agree on what metal "is" anymore; respect the elders or go straight for the Cookie-Monster vocals? Death and mayhem, dungeons and dragons, or beer and bongs?
It's all about whatever a record label calls it anymore; yesterday's heavy metal is today's hard rock, and yesterday's hard rock is today's classic rock.
