Top 10 Metal Album's of Each Year 1970 - 1979

A list of the top ten metal albums for each year 1970 - 1979
1970: Also known as "the beginning". Sure, there were bands who explored harder and heavier sounds throughout the late 60s. Many appear on this list. Yet it was the distant sound of church bells through a raging thunderstorm which signaled the birth of heavy metal proper (February 13, 1970 to be exact). In today's top 10, we examine Black Sabbath (spoiler alert) and eight other bands whose musical contributions got the metallic wheels turning. "Oh lord yeah!"
