I’m 26. Black Sabbath changed my life in my teenage years, and still listen to them daily. I don’t see Sabbath’s popularity declining any time soon, perhaps never.

I graduated high school in 2021 and all my friends and even a couple girlfriends, liked, or even loved sabbath. This is in rural Appalachia too. That chart can't be too accurate

Is Sabbath’s fanbase dying off?
According to YouTube analytics from my Black Sabbath Vol. 4 documentary:
63.4% of viewers are over 45
Only 2% are under 25
96.1% are male
No Gen Z. Barely any millennials.
It’s mostly Gen X and boomers still keeping the flame alive.
📊 (Not scientific, just YouTube stats — but they paint a picture.)
So here's the question:
Are we the last generation that gives a damn about Sabbath?
Or is there still a way to pass it on?
