Psycohpobia.

Out of curiosity, will 13 and The Devil You Know be included in this? Either way, I suspect I'm out after this album. This was pretty much the end of my interest in Sabbath.
Argument, the presentation of reasonable views, never makes headway against conviction, and conviction takes no part in argument because it knows.

I think I will include them, yes.  I will probably also do a round with the new tracks on Reunion and The Dio Years Best of.

The Devil You Know is outstanding; it has to be included!  What is your guys impression of 13 so far?  For me, nothing is really standing out too much.  Solid, but nothing spectacular.  I actually find those 3 bonus tracks to be the best of the bunch.

I liked it quite a lot, but for some reason I never went back to it, solid.

Also, the bonus round I will be doing these songs;

Psycho Man
Selling My Soul
The Devil Cried
Shadow of the Wind
Ear in the Wall

Should I include the other bonus tracks?

What's the Use
Cloak and Dagger
The Fallen
Loser Gets it All
Some Kind of Women

Loser Gets it All and What's the Use are particulary amazing.

Okay, I will.  Hopefully Barto knows these so he can vote, cause I don't think anyone else would know these.

Actually, I'm familiar with quite a few of them. None of them do anything for me, really.
