You don't sell 100 million albums worldwide or give birth to an entire genre of music for being 'overrated'
You might not be too keen, but without the likes of Ozzy you wouldn't be listening to that thing which you call METAL.
Depends on what you mean by overrated though. I don't believe their influence on the genre is overrated, even though there were other bands that certainly also contributed to the birth of metal. However, their musicianship is greatly overrated, every beginner guitarists starts off playing Sabbath, and yet I still see Tony’s name coming up on great guitarist polls.
