Black Sabbath, Vol. 4 is the fourth studio album by British heavy metal band Black Sabbath. It was a combination of rock and heavy metal.
It was originally to be titled "Snowblind", the name of a track on the album which was a reference for cocaine use. The record company feared a backlash, particularly in America, so the title was altered. The song "Snowblind" had to be re-recorded because in the original Ozzy yelled the word "cocaine" after each verse.
