hi everyone!! i love everytime I react to Black Sabbath - what is their favourite album of yours?
A 3 way tie between Master of Reality, Paranoid and Heaven and Hell
@@ExcelionYogi yea can't figure out if I like Paranoid or Master of Reality more. excited to get to HnH
This and Mob Rules are my favourite Sabbath-records.
Black Sabbath, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
Master of reality and vol.4
"I love Sabbath riffs, they're my favourite riffs"
Us too. Us too.
every time I listen to Sabbath after a long break I feel exactly the same
Regarding "Sweet Leaf", there's a funny clip of an interview from the 70s where the band gets asked what they do for fun, and Ozzy automatically answers "Smoke marijuana". The interviewer does kind of a double take and asks "You're joking, right?", and Ozzy just goes "Oh yeah, just joking!" and the whole band erupts to laughter.
The coughing at the start of the song is Tony Iommi coughing after taking a deep inhale.
The band was on ALL the drugs in the 70s. When they lived in Los Angeles in -72, they had a designated Coke Table in their house.
Tony Iommi described that coke table as that scene in Scarface.
who doesn't have a designated coke table?
Yep another song about Cocaine called: SNOWBLIND
"it sounds like a love song"
It is
Oh, Black Sabbath again??! :0
We don't deserve it :D
all hail the Sabbath!
@@kirawasareactor hell yess!
😂 We all should do like you while listening to "Children of the grave". 🎵Children of THE GRAAVE 🎵 I'm never going to forget that. 😂
OMG HAHAHAHAH i just found the title interesting. little did i know he would also chant it at the end of the song lol (or more so whisper it)
Did no some of members of Tarot Did a Cover of “Children of the Grave”
@@kirawasareactor we actually did that exact same chant during the reunion tour performance of this song
@@kirawasareactor kira when are you going to do a reaction to "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath"
This album launched the WHOLE Doom Metal GENRE -- -- of bands who base their whole sound and approach on Master of Reality.
Megadeth rust in peace its a masterpiece album u should listen to it
It’s my favorite album of all time and definitely one of the best metal albums ever IN MY OPINION. Like every song has such a good solo it’s amazing
Yes absolutely
But not the remastered version
Yeeees!
@@emilianodiaz1119 most songs have like 5+ solos and they're all so damn good Marty Friedman and Mustaine were master class on there
I still can't decide which album I like, Paranoid or Master of Reality. They are both masterpiece. And sometimes Vol.4 is my favorite......They make too many perfect albums!!
wow don't get me too hyped for Vol 4!! hahahah
Same - I go back and forth between MoR & Vol. 4. MoR is more quality overall, but Vol. 4 has some astounding bangers, like Under The Sun...but then MoR has Into The Void. Aah - can't choose!!
I agree with this, and throw in the debut.
Ha! People ask me what my favorite Sabbath album is and I always say the first four.🤔 😁😁😁😁😁
yeah i do love Vol 4
These guys were pioneers. Sometimes younger people hear it and say, "Oh, I've heard something like this before - or better." They don't realize what they've heard is derivative of this group. Too bad we can't "un-hear" what followed, and listen again with virgin ears to appreciate how unique and awesome it was for its time.
I try to picture myself in the year when the album is droped.
Imagine hearing this in 1971.
@I'm hiding in your phone Yeah, well, I grew up going to church every Sunday. When I first heard BS, at about 11 years-old, part of the allure was the darkness and naughtiness. My upbringing, even at that young age, informed me that it was a dissolute lifestyle, but putting my head in the sand to let others determine what is best doesn't seem like a good strategy, long term.
I'm 21 and honestly, nothing sounds quite like sabbath, yeah, there's heavier stuff, there's faster stuff, there's doomier stuff, but sabbath just sounds unique. People who overlook sabbath are just insane imo, very close-minded.
The fact that they existed since that many years ago make me like them even more. The first metal band without a doubt.
I'm so stoked to see you with a bass! The best thing about music is how it inspires us to play.
I love finding you tubers like you that still listen to this kinda music. Makes me smile
Hi Kira, Wow! I love this video and love even more the uncut version on patron! It's so cool and worth every bit!
you honestly make me so happy.
Its so awesome to see someone get so genuinely into something, especially metal!
You do your research and you are open and honest. Best of luck Kira.
KEWL!!!!! My Monday just got a lot better. Thanx Kira!
Excellent reaction to an amazing album! The drums really do have an odd sound to them but I can never get enough of that bright bass and super overdriven guitar, it's almost crackling on some of those riffs. This was my gateway to Sabbath, only ever knew the hits from Paranoid until one time I went to a friend's place for some sweet leaf. She had a Master of Reality record, which I put on, and I was completely hooked after that first riff blasts out
this brought a smile to my face, your joy is infectious
Nice bass! Speaking of Interpol, I taught myself how to play bass by trying to play along to their first album. Not surprisingly, Carlos D's bass lines are super fun to play. And I love this Black Sabbath album as well! So glad you're a fan :)
This is the greatest rock album of all time. All music was written by Tony iommi, lyrics by Geezer Butler. Greatest songwriting team ever.
@fuknwastd , yes, I actually meant to say “rock or metal”.
Metal and rock are very different genres of music.
Don't mix em up
@@metalheadindian9174 , Air Dance is a jazz song. NIB is blues. Symptom of the Universe is thrash. Sweet Leaf is stoner/doom. Rick and Roll Doctor is rock. Lahaina Sinrise is soft rock. Don’t be pompous.
@@mikeg.4211 What do you think about Black Metal?
@@metalheadindian9174 , I think it’s good in some instances if done well with creativity, like Nachtmystium. What about you?
This is so awesome 😊
Great choice! Into the void is my fav on this album. Keep promoting vinyl!!
I suggest Iron Maiden Killers for an album reaction. Original singer Paul Di'anno
just listened to a track of Killers today for a future video - enjoyed it heaps !
Nice reaction this is such a classic well done
Greetings from Greece! Keep up the good work!
Thank you from Australia!!!
Hu siii . Estaba esperando esto .
I've been on the Sabbath train since 1979...love your reaction.
The joy of bass! She's Lost Control!
YAS!! Love this album SO MUCH!!
Okay I see that this video was posted over three months ago but I am really enjoying watching Kira react to Black Sabbath!!! I was 14 years old in 1971 and my first Listen to Black Sabbath was the song Paranoid!! It was on a jukebox and used to play it while we played pinball in a little candy store close to where I grew up!! Hearing that got me to buy the paranoid album which I loved totally!! To this day 50 years later I Still Rock out to "farieswearboots" and scream my head off!! I can still remember getting each new album as it was released in the early 70s!! I have Been a lifetime fan of Sabbath!! Enjoy your journey down the Black Sabbath rabbit hole!!
Hendrix was also left handed and played a regular guitar upside down 🙂👏. Oooooh you need to react to Jimi!
That makes me feel much better 😂
Some other great left-handed guitarists include Kurt Cobain, Paul McCartney, Dick Dale and Courtney Barnett. Being a lefty myself, I think its really cool that so many great musicians are left-handed (Even though i play guitar right handed😅)
@@FramesGone how could you not mention Tony Iommi on a video about Black Sabbath?? unless it was too obvious 😄
also don't feel bad about playing right handed, there are lots of left handed guitarists who play right handed too like Gary Moore, Mark Knopfler, Steve Morse or Joe Perry (to name a few) we just have to adapt constantly in this right handed world haha
@@luluxoria I completely forgot that he is left handed too lol. I think he lost a bit of some of his fingers on his right hand too, but was still able to play despite the doctors telling him otherwise. As for lefties playing righthand, i honestly think its about how you learn it when you start. I'd love to try playing a left-handed guitar, but it would probably feel weird since my muscle memory would be all wrong XD.
Your research is quite accurate concerning them against the the label that they were on at the times and all of that very informative I really enjoyed your reaction! As the the band went on they would go on to produce more and more songs directed against their manager or their label that they were on
Stryper did a cover of the song "After Forever"! This was an awesome reaction to this album! And your bass looks cool and you should make a video of you playing it!
I love your reactions
AWWWWW THANK YOU
Looking forward for pt.2 , to see your reaction to “ Solitude”, the ballad of the album. One of my personal favourites!
✌️
ahhhhhhh man Solitude 😢❤️
My favoutite Sabbath album!
This is the best of B.S album and of the whole Heavy Metall music
Joy division , she’s lost control . I do enjoy watching your reactions, really honest and funny, keep up the good work
You're very good! I would love to see whole songs uncut reacted to on your patreon channel, if only you had some higher tiers where direct requests would be done, like one guaranteed request per month for $10 per month, and 2 for $15, etc. Have you ever considered adding a couple more of these higher tiers for taking specific requests for an increased subscription amount.
Actually a lot of the best bass players play with a pick. It's nothing unusual at all. Also I'd love to see you react to Heaven and Hell by Black Sabbath. Since you already did Rainbow/Dio and Black Sabbath, it's the next logical step
Geezer only used a pick every once in a while. Most of the time he's just banging away with his sausage sized digits.
Oy Kira! Interesting thing I learned about Black Sabbath... what is really unique about their "simple sound" style is guitarist Tony Iommi often follows off the bass riff. So in essence bassist Geezer Butler is actually the lead! Isn't that amazing?! No we know why Sabbath sounds so simple yet totally kickarse awesome! Cheers!
I always had Geezer as the musical backbone of Black Sabbath.
This is my favourite Sabbath album. Love it 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Awesome Bass Kira 🔊 ! " She's Lost Control " Rock On 😎
knew you'd know it!
Should definitely give Disorder by Joy Division a listen if haven’t. Misfits,SOD,Stooges,Pixies,Bowie
fun fact: the upside down cross isn't really a satanic sign. It is called Cross of Saint Peter or Petrine Cross and is an inverted Latin cross, traditionally used as a Christian symbol
DEAD WRONG!
@@kidwave1 Not wrong at all, but it doesn't negate the implied use in Satanic iconography too.
This album is sooo good. The blueprint for doom metal.
Master of reality 🎸🎸what an album helped my life so much!
Thanks for being you. A unique duo is Les Claypool & buckethead I saw korn open for Ozzy as my fist concert. You rock
My favorite Sabbath lp, yes! Btw you are playing She Lost Control by Joy Division. Nice! I actually started on bass learning Joy Division songs.
youre awesome lol, love black sabbath
Black Sabbath - especially the classics with Ozzy - are great because everyone shines in their parts. As a bassist myself, Geezer is one of my inspirations. Future must-react-to albums should be "Vol. 4", "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath", and maybe "Sabotage" (in that order). From there, if you want to react to a Dio-led Sabbath album, probably "Heaven and Hell". I really appreciate the genuine-ness of your reactions!
Yes ! Love how you imitating riffs with those "rap hands" ahah, and of course She Lost Control Again at the end. If you want to go more into the stoner, sludge, doom I recommend listening to NOLA by Down, certainly a great entry point. And then bands like Sleep, Kyuss, Melvins, Eyehategod, Crowbar, Fu-Manchu, Corrosion of Conformity, Pentagram, Acid King, Acid Bath, Elder, Red Fang, High On Fire, Earthless, Electric Wizard, Neurosis, Mastodon, Baroness, Bison BC, YOB, Conan, Dopethrone, Weedeater, Buzzov.en, and damn there is too much great bands
I get hope for the future when I see you younglings loving Sabbath
My favorite Sabbath album hands down!
Great reaction Kira looking forward to part 2, for me my favourite Sabbath albums are Paranoid and Sabbath bloody Sabbath, and you should check out Iron Maidens early days the group was founded by bass player Steve Harris and their first 2 albums has a very strong punk vibe about them which I think you would like a lot.
OMG a Bass!!! I'm a bass player myself, it's so cool to see you have one too! Way to go Kira! \m/
I'm pretty much self taught, and my first bass "lessons" were trying to play along with Ramones records. It's a great starting line If you're looking for one, easy to learn and you really get a lot about song structures and stuff. Some UFO songs like "Cherry" are nice to play along too, not too complicated and makes you feel like a pro! You'll get to Iron Maiden style triplets eventually :D
that is my reaction when i see a bass too!!
yea it would have be pretty easy to self-teach bass if i can do it haha. learning the entirety of turn on the bright lights by Interpol has been my lessons. I'm like half way maybe through the album? i reacted to my first Ramones song in an upcoming video actually haha hopefully youtube doesn't block it and allows it to publish!
@@kirawasareactor never heard a full Interpol record. Maybe I should create a reaction channel too hahah! Can't wait to see the Ramones reaction now!
For next Black Sabbath I would go "Sabotage" \m/
Im excited to see what you think of solitude
ooooooooh my god Solitude
The birthplace of many genres of metal is Masters of Reality.
Omg you are a lefty. So am I and you sound awesome. ❤
Embryo functions just as in intro to Children of the Grave
ah got it! thanks. I love it on it's own anyways haha
@@kirawasareactor The record label, again. They cut the intros and gave them random titles as if they were independent songs. Otherwise it would be a record with only 6 songs. On Vol. 4 Iommi did some similar things like the songs Fluff, FX or Laguna Sunrise but they were his own ideas and titles. This album is like a bridge from early Sabbath to Vol. 4 and the following 2 albums. And it is magnificent, of course :-)
They changed the tuning starting with this album. They started tuning down to relieve the pressure on Tony's fingers, thus the heavier darker sound. This guy was a guitarist who had his finger tips cut off. Anyone else would be devastated by that, but he turned it to his advantage and created a whole new genre of music.
I think after MoR, Tony switched back to [mainly] Eb instead of C# like on MoR.
Iommi actually tuned his guitar down because he accidentally cut off his fingertips. It made it easier to play. It just also happened to sound awesome.
An industrial accident created a whole genre of music. Losing the fingertips of the middle two fingers of his fretting hand just at the point of going pro meant he had to adapt his whole playing style.
Sweet leaf OZZY’s singing to his Marijuana!
Fantastic album! BSs later albums are more towards standard HM (I like them up to 1975 - not so much after that) This album still had elements of blues, folk, Psych and jazz in the music….The God-Devil Themes are also very common in the old blues…
The constant tom beat you hear throughout the studio version of Children Of The Grave is never repeated in a live performance as far as I'm aware.
It was just layered over the track for effect.
Impossible to do while playing the regular beat without 4 hands or another drummer.
I think it's timbales, like Edgar Winter plays in Frankenstein. I used to jam with a guy who could approximate that sound live. He was a great drummer.
I heard it was just the bass strings slapping against the pickup
@@jorozco13yearsago40 That would be some seriously noisy,slappy strings.
They tuned down,but they weren't djent.
I’d love to see you react to Sleep - Dopesmoker!
I first heard it when I was 12.
I am 17 now and still haven't finished the entire song
Yes. What a tune. Should try Conference of the birds by Om. Pretty much Sleep minus Matt Pike.
I listen to dopesmoker 25 times a day.
How would you be able to see through all the smoke though
@@bucksatan4236 mathical not possible dude
It was fun. You should try Vol.4
Probably my favorite Sabbath album.
Tony tuned his guitar down from "Black Sabbath" onwards - but he downtuned even further on "Master of Reality" from Eb to C#. This was mainly to make it easier for him to play without hurting his fretboard hand, which was the one that was injured and lost the tips of two fingers, and to make the sound heavier.
love it! jam'n some Joy Division on your bass \m/
Embryo was just Tony fooling around, playing his guitar with a violin bow. A lot of their heavier songs have odd little musical interludes as a starter.
I love You! ❤️
Greetings from Mexico 💕 :)
I really like song "It's alright" now. It's from their album Technical Ecstacy (very underrated album). It's a great song sang by Sabbath's drummer Bill Ward.
Just curious, you pulled out their first album and showed it to us, is that the version where the song Wicked World was replaced with the song Evil Woman ? Kinda looked like the Nems (?) version of that album with the double jacket and the lyrics in the cross. If so....you gotta go find Wicked World and check it out too.
was that "shes lost control" by joy division I heard at the end haha
You will fall in love with the first 5 Sabbath albums. I always thought the theme song to "Friends" by The Rembrandts sounded just like the beginning of "After Forever". Next up Vol. 4. Great reaction gain. \m/\m/
I've seen a couple other comments that lead me to think that Sabotage isn't particularly loved. To me it's head and shoulders above Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, which has me curious about people's Sabotage opinions
@@Drforrester31 That's fair.
Did a cover of After Forever live before. The phrasing gets tricky but i loved singing it. Great song.
Hell yeah! I love this album. But that's an appropriate reaction to Sweet Leaf's intro, the coughing loop is SO LOUD and so random. What were they thinking?!
This album changed my life.
50 years ago, hello.
my favorite sabbath album
Ha ha ha...your reactions are awesome! Second greatest metal album after Master of Puppets, IMHO.
HOOOH... Black Sabbath the Black Sabbath!!! Ese disco es el unicio del metal
I don't know if anyone cares at this point, but... The drums sound 'unique' on Children Of The Grave(the rolling triplet tom fills) because they were the newly invented Roto-Tom's: Shell-less drums made by Remo, the drumhead manufacturer. Tuned down low here, to give that attacky-smacky sound. Roto-Tom's are used in the opening of Time by Pink Floyd, tuned up high and to specific notes.
I think it's my favorite Sabbath album and it really influenced a lot of bands from Stoner, Doom, Gothic, Thrash Metal and other variations of the style! I love Geezer Butler's bass on it and his lyrics, by the way, the person coughing at the beginning of Sweet Leaf is Tony Iommi after a big drag on a "very special" cigarette with a "very special leaf"! So are you left-handed? Me too, but I can't play bass or left-handed guitars!
Speaking of bass, I like the lines right in front of Hooky on the Joy Division albums and the first New Order records! As soon as possible I will buy a Rickenbacker bass because of him, Geezer, Cliff Burton, Lemmy and Geddy Lee, they are my favorite bass players.
My favourite Sabbath album
Gotta do all the albums with ozzy nowww!!!
morning Aussie!
I didn’t know you played bass 🎶
Sweet Leaf is about Mirajanna, and Tony Iommi tuned down his guitar on the first 3 Black Sabbath albums due to his accident in the sheet metal factory he worked at
This is the my favorite Sabbath album and it’s one of the most important heavy metal albums for all time. The second part of album is more killer than first.
YO.... I have that same sweatshirt from going to one of Interpol’s concerts. Fuck yeah
Oh and born again! Right after the first two albums
Nice!
Brings me back to my youth, my first album i ever brought. I played the shit out of it!
That Joy Division bassline!! ^^
Top 3 in my Favourite Bands of all time -Geezer writes the Lyrics and Plays Bass -Hes my favourite Member - one of the best Rhythm sections in Rock Ever -Keep listening to the Bass from the Ozzy era Geezer is the man - The Members of the band wore Crosses on their neck to protect from all the craziness that was happening - Tony Iommi had an Italian background
I like the upside down bass. Tony Iommi is also a lefty.
That's a very interesting little fun fact that you talked about with the first album and the upside-down cross on the inside of the cover!! I'm one of those crazy creatures from the sixties and seventies that actually listened to everything on cassette tape!!! I did not have vinyl albums!! So a lot of time a lot of the artwork that was done for album covers especially the inside covers was lost on cassette tape covers!! Consequently I never realized there was an upside-down cross on the first album!! The story about it being done by the record company or management sounds like it could be feasible!! I know that Black Sabbath had a reputation as being Satanist or devil worshiping type of music only because of their look I believe and that's why they made a point to write songs like After Forever!! You could take after forever and give it to any Christian rock band and it would go over like crazy!! Personally I never thought of Black Sabbath as any type of Satan or devil worshiping type of music!!! I just loved it because it was hard driving heavy metal to me and I love that kind of music!!
The first 100% heavy metal album IMHO and my fav album of Sabbath too
