"Hand of Doom" from the same album is another really bouncy and funky song they do, but weirdly it has some of the most powerful lyrics I've heard in a song. In simple its about Vietnam veterans returning to the US and falling into PTSD and drug abuse. It's honestly one of the most impressive song's I've ever heard, with lots of unique ideas and complete switch-ups during the song, while also sounding amazing. if you do chose to listen to it, I would pay close attention to the lyrics and meaning, its also got one of Ozzies best vocal performances imo with him going from almost screaming to whispering at times... really great reaction, you guys make a great trio!
@@AKJACKAL99709 Yep! Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin all british bands playing blues in a way that hadn't been heard before and all from our tiny island of a country! Zeppelin and Sabbath both were from in or around Birmingham with the exception of Jimmy Page. Sabbath just took it one step further and made it a darker doomier sound and in my opinion birthing metal
The sirens on the track were the ones that sounded in the UK during WW2, which the band members were born in the years right after, so you can imagine how that echoed throughout their youth.
The drummer before sabbath was a jazz drummer before he played with them and they were all doing jazz gigs and bluesy stuff before they joined together
Tate is a gret addition, you should have him on for some reactions, he gives off a great vibe and I feel like you give more repect to the song with him around, you gave it a better chance 😁
This just shows how big American blues was in the UK in the 50's, 60's and 70's. If more blues artists from that era knew that, they could have been stars while they where alive.
Black Sabbath, who are named after a Boris Karloff horror movie, are an amazing presence as a live band. For proof, check out their performance of War Pigs live in Paris, France in 1970. Afterwards, you will wonder why Drummer Bill Ward doesn't get arrested for assault after he pounds his drum kit. Luckily I saw them live, about 30 years later, and at that time, nothing had changed. He is the most physical drummer I ever saw play live. Didn't see John Bonham of Led Zeppelin, but I've seen film. It's close. Seen many other greats but Bill was the most most.
You should give Back Sabbath - War Pigs - LIVE Paris 1970 a watch, amazing performance. Also to watch Bill Ward destroy his drum kit. Also if you want to feel some Sabbath funk listen to Black Sabbath - Supernaut or the Wizard.
Sabbath have a few great "groove" songs. The older ones that come to mind are "Fairies Wear Boots", "The Wizard", and "NIB." That said, there were some groovy stuff on a few tunes of their 2013 reunion album "13." I think you'd like "Loner", "Live Forever", & "Damaged Soul" from that album.
The guitarist, Toni iomi, has home made prosthetic fingers on the fret board hand because he chopped them off working in steel factory, which makes his style slightly 'simplified'. But he nailed the metal techniques and did them first. The twidly guitar solo style and crunchy chugging guitar. You're listening to it's conception.
There is such a strong connection between punk/hard rock/60s folk music and rap--social consciousness, a will for change, and righteous anger for the way things are... Peace
My current drummer and Bassists were in a metal/sludgey/proggy band called Thread. They used to not write songs , but sets. Their sets would last 30-60 minutes. No breaks, all the way through. Each set had themes which are almost like songs but they all flowed into each other. They were fucking great. Bristol metal scene 99-09 kinda times, Bristol had some great bands then, that most of the world never heard, that were doing their own thing, sorry peeps that was your loss if you missed it
Symptom of the Universe by Black Sabbath in my opinion exemplifies everything they do so well as a band. From the heavy to the slower stuff, a driving groove and a great vocal. The closing section of the song takes on an interesting turn. Whether you make it into a video or not, give it a listen lads.
Sabbath has a lot of funky grooves. They came up in the UK where Soul and R & B were adored as much as the Blues. Sabbath is one of the most important rock bands of all time. Their influence is still being felt. The first six albums they released are indispensable in any conservation about 70’s Rock. Full stop.
“Tate, the old man” 🤣 so happy JB liked it. Also how the hell is Black Sabbath not Charles thing but Primus is lmao. All love tho guys. Great review ❤️
Shout out to Tate for the great song choice and the awesome taste in bourbon, he's got some nice bottles back behind him. On the subject of long songs, you should check out NOFX's "The Decline" - the 18 minute long punk masterpiece.
Two songs on this album track 3 Behind The Wall of Sleep which leads to track 4 NIB will blow your minds. The album is one of the best debut albums on my list to be sure.
War pigs and Children of the grave was hook me in when i started listen black sabbath in 93 , still at my all time favorite songs and reminds me my childhood a lot ... The message tough its one of the most powerrfull anti war album on earth ... Musicly it was a pioneer too . Nice reaction :) When you have time check for rainbow - stargazer too ;)
I used to listen to this song as a kid... but not LISTEN. If that makes sense. And now that I'm quite a bit older... I started understanding the lyrics. And man. There is some hard hitting lyrics.
This song is widely considered the most powerful ANTI WAR song. Great lyrics. Drummer is killer🔥🔥🔥You should watch the VIDEO for this 50 years old masterpiece.
Always welcoming to see you Cats just sit back and enjoy the musicianship of the men that Love music as much as you two 🙏 GREAT REACTION 🔥🔥🔥 and I didn’t even mention 🛠T⚙️⚙️L🛠….. wait….🤦🏼 MY BAD 🙈🙉🙊
You guys should really go for Liquid Tension Experiment - Acid Rain Live In L.A. 2008. Believe me. it's the opposite of what both of you like but for that reason i know that you guys would like
When I was a teenager in the mid 90's, my friends and I had a garage band, we played cover songs mostly; this was one of my favorites to play on the drums.
You can never hear that song too many times. It's a great experience to have your brain go through when you think about the words and how it pounds it in your soul.
The Year after Jimi died, this album took off. These guys are the fabric or metal and based in blues/ Rock. So the era is soaked into this music. You hear parallels in the tactics used today and style riffs being used as well. You heard Planet Caravan & War Pigs. I liked NIB ... such a witch hunt Sabbath song Slow and grinding with anxiety
As someone who's been watching your videos for a month now and getting a feel for the fanbase, if you really want the viewers to come running I promise you these are some of the songs that people are dying to hear reviewed: 1. Tool - The Grudge 2. Tool - Rosetta Stoned 3. Tool - Jambi 4. Tool - H. 5. Tool - Cold and Ugly (For the oldschool fans) 6. A Perfect Circle - The Outsider 7. A Perfect Circle - Orestes 8. Opeth - Ghost of Perdition 9. Opeth - The Grand Conjuration 10. Alice in Chains - Dam That River 11. Alice in Chains - Them Bones 12. Slipknot - People = Shit 13. Slipknot - Eyeless 14. Slipknot - Spit It Out 15. Machine Head - Davidian 16. Sepultura - Roots Bloody Roots 17. Sepultura - Refuse Resist 18. Sepultura - Ratamahatta A lot of the songs from these bands that you've been recommended so far, are great songs, after a few listens.. but don't really capture the "meat" of the band and what they're about. (Alice in Chains - Grind, Tool - Invincible, Opeth - To Bid You Farewell, ect,) All great songs for after you've already bought in to what they're about but, not necessarily great for a first/second time listener, if that makes sense? Anyways, not trying to tell you how to run your channel, just noticed that a huge chunk of your fanbase are people who profoundly love the great bands of the late 90s/early 2000s and am just trying to help out. Cheers!
My favorite Black Sabbath song is Planet Caravan because it has a slow, trippy, softer vibe. They can drive their music through your eardrums but this song takes you on a slow moonlight caravan.
Ok. I've got a collection of comic book art, I've got an eclectic booze collection.....but what I DON'T have is a wall of kick-ass guitars! Love that red hollow body and that sunburst Gibson(?). I think, and I could be wrong, this song was released either on the day of or the week of Jimi's death. So....behold! This was the birth of the Heavy Metal genre. Loved hearing you guys discecting this one. Give "Neon Knights" and "Heaven And Hell" a listen. Same musicians, different singer. "Heaven And Hell" is fantastic (your ears will thank you) and "Neon Kights" was Tony Iommi's favorite guitar track to play....according to him. Great vid, guys. Liked and sub'd for more!
Tate.. I'm one of those odd little dude with a crazy deep voice. I. 5ft 4 and have the voice of someone 7ft tall.. you would be great to do the voice over of my autobiography lol
I remember hearing an interview with Elvin Jones, who was John Coltrane's drummer, who said they played a matinee concert that was 3 hours with no breaks or pauses. So, one song, 3 hrs.
British Lass here. Saw them at Milton Keynes Bowl, Ozzfest 97. I was 13yrs old. Pantera on the bill too... but Black Sabbath was my reason to be there! Mum and Dad were big fans, musicians too so I grew up with Sabbath in the time of Spice Girls lol... Greatest Band on the planet! Ozzy gave me the devil horns and spat on my shirt after I crowd surfed, yeh I still got it lol. Gig of my life! And so so proud at my age that I've seen them x Really should have been your generation though, I'd have fit right in lol
1. Always liked this song. 2. Tate looks exactly like what I imagine JB will look like after 5 more years of doing Primus Reaction videos. 3. @JB - You should bet/challenge Charles to listen to an entire Black Sabath album three times. 4. Great job Tate, nice song choice, and nice Bourbon collection.
Fairies wear boots will blow your mind. when they say fairies they’re referring to the violent skins that attack them after the show way back in the day so they wrote this song about them. It is an amazing song
When they first did that song in the studio the bass player used 412 cabinet with one blown speaker and a 100 watt Laney tube head I don't know what kind of bass he had but he wound the coils with heavier😊
What has always struck me is the very first two lines of the song, using "Masses" two different ways, astounding lyrics for the time it was written, I grew up in the 60's and 70's, and Vietnam was dragging on, and on...and Americans for the most part, wanted out of the war...How history repeats itself...Rock ON!!
Tate, another banger you picked, this is where Heavy Metal started, Black Sabbath, you must consider the era, in which this was written, 1970, the guitar player is left handed, Satan's laughing spreads his wings, means, he ( Satan) knows the lord will not forgive these war mongers (politicians) for the blood of innocent people on their hands, all for the might dollar, and power, this song is relevant till this day...
Every time it feels like this song is gonna end being medium it ends up exceeding my expectations. A lot like Lateralus from Tool it's just such a perfect song.
The guitar player Tony Iomi is widely regarded as the riff master. Also, he didn’t have most of his finger tips. He played with prosthetics. There aren’t many riffs in rock and metal that Black Sabbath didn’t create or influence almost every band that came after.
The first three albums are so good, One of the best bands and songs of all time, in the early days of rock and pop, the top 40 were all like two minutes long. but when real rock hit the songs got longer. Sabbath started heavier rock. and they did it better than anyone, because they had a feel and sole in there musicianship, you guys should check out Aerosmith ( Nobody's Fault ) from 1976
I love how how old buck gets the feel and message. its in his face. this is a real message from young men 50 years ago. lyrics by Geezer Butler . the youth think too, never forget that...plus this is first generation after WWII. The ending represents The end
Great to see this great music being shared as such.... go lads go... Tate knows his stuff..... Sabbath has a swing blues under current in their early music music with Ozzy... part of their influences... Don't forget the guitarist Tony Iommi was missing two fingers off his fretting hand...
In America the black man gave us the blues but it was banned from most radio stations, bands like Led Zeppelin The Rolling Stones and Black Sabbath actually introduced the youth of America to a genre created here. Steve Parish, legendary Roadie for the Grateful Dead explained it thst way living in thst period.
Imagine having so many riffs, hooks, rhythms, and melodies that you can afford to put a bunch into one song, and still make the remaining album a masterpiece. And then release 4 more groundbreaking albums.
Black Sabbath was a three piece (add the singer for four) band, and basically a blues band at that. However, since the drummer has a pronounced jazz feel in a lot of his playing, you could say they where a jazz three piece also. Being a three piece (guitar, bass, and drums) leaves a great deal of space that can be filled without stepping all over each other. Their blues roots seem to make them pick their spots, to do a run or a fill, and so never ends up as just a bunch of notes. Whatever they play adds, and does not detract. When they do go wild, like the guitar solo, the bass and drums are moving all over the place, but never stepping on the guitar, or each other. That all comes down to feel, or "bounce" as one of you put it. For a lot of hard rock, the really good stuff, it has to swing, or have a groove to it, otherwise its three chords over 4/4 time. AC/DC's "Back In Black" grooves, Aerosmith's "Sweet Emotion" grooves. If there were no Blues, or no R&B, there would have never have been Hard Rock.
Damn, loved this. Are you always a trio ? Tate was in some deep thoughts. I’m on his page about Ozzie. He was better in Sabbath. If Tate is in this, I’ll sub
"Hand of Doom" from the same album is another really bouncy and funky song they do, but weirdly it has some of the most powerful lyrics I've heard in a song. In simple its about Vietnam veterans returning to the US and falling into PTSD and drug abuse.

agreed, crazy good
I second this, probably their grooviest song!
💯🔥🤘
Yes
🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Sabbath is heavy blues really, totally an evolution of what Jimi was doing, the beginnings of heavy metal
Heck, the rock music from Britain was also heavily blues influenced. Led Zeppelin would be the most famous example of that.
@@AKJACKAL99709 Yep! Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin all british bands playing blues in a way that hadn't been heard before and all from our tiny island of a country! Zeppelin and Sabbath both were from in or around Birmingham with the exception of Jimmy Page. Sabbath just took it one step further and made it a darker doomier sound and in my opinion birthing metal
Lol "Heavy blues". LMAO
You Finnadookiels are pure CRINGE.
Not forgetting Deep Purple & Motorhead of course. 🇬🇧
Q: What was invented in the Birmingham, England in late 1960’s. A: A Music genre called Heavy Metal.
War Pigs is one of the most potent anti-war anthems of all time. At least that’s what I get out of this amazing song.
There are others just as potent, but many of those are misinterpreted (Fortunate son for example). This one is VERY clear.
The sirens on the track were the ones that sounded in the UK during WW2, which the band members were born in the years right after, so you can imagine how that echoed throughout their youth.
The drummer before sabbath was a jazz drummer before he played with them and they were all doing jazz gigs and bluesy stuff before they joined together
The album this song is from, Paranoid, was released on the exact date of Hendrix's death, from memory.
Correct
Tate is a gret addition, you should have him on for some reactions, he gives off a great vibe and I feel like you give more repect to the song with him around, you gave it a better chance 😁

Your friend has good taste in music, you should listen to more of his suggestions. :D
Facts.
Bill Ward is something to behold during War Pigs Live in Paris 1970. Absolutely slays his kit!!
04:20 this face tate is making is that kind of smiling that thinks "yeah you're fucking enjoying it huh? You little bastards"
Bill Ward is the TRUTH!!!!!! He’s a jazz, blues, rock drumming monster.
I’m digging Tate’s deep Barry White baritone
Check out “Hand of Doom”

I was just going to recommend that. The drummer is an Animal!! The stamina! Incredible!

I'd bet the song by Hendrix he's referring to @14:10 is Voodoo Chile
View the "War Pigs" version "Live in Paris" from 1970. Astounding raw sound. Drums are fantastic.
I wish that I could see videotape of my face in '70 when I first heard it.
Mr Tate is one classy guy with great taste in music. Cheers..
My current drummer and Bassists were in a metal/sludgey/proggy band called Thread. They used to not write songs , but sets. Their sets would last 30-60 minutes. No breaks, all the way through.

War Pigs, one of the greatest songs ever

The bass line really makes it. Tate nailed it with the funk-rock combo; I never really caught that during the verses, but it is totally true.
Black Sabbath - “The Wizard” would be great next or Iron Maiden - “The Trooper.” Love the reactions and the way you dive into the music.
This song is widely considered the most powerful ANTI WAR song. Great lyrics. Drummer is killer🔥🔥🔥You should watch the VIDEO for this 50 years old masterpiece.
Live from Paris 1970 War Pigs, not that computer animated thing.
What a song awesome , if you think about it kinda reminds me of what's going on today in the U S A and the rest of the world

Love Bill Ward. Puts just the right amount of sauce on his sticks.
You should hear faith no more do war pigs , very similar but a new edge.
lol My father turned me on to this album when he returned from Viet Nam the second time. I was 14 years old. Timeless
Do NIB from Black Sabbath

as Im listenig to the solo breakdown keep in mind. The guitarist Tony Iommi has two fake finger tips from a saw injury
This Patreon request is the absolute best. And a very fine looking gentlemen as well. 😉
Want to do a song with length. Do Pink Floyd echos. Killer song as well

If you like this then the Live in Paris version of War Pigs will be life changing. As of this writing War Pigs are in full force around the globe.
In America the black man gave us the blues but it was banned from most radio stations, bands like Led Zeppelin The Rolling Stones and Black Sabbath actually introduced the youth of America to a genre created here.
Steve Parish, legendary Roadie for the Grateful Dead explained it thst way living in thst period.
Nice review glad I found your channel, and love your bourbon choices 😀
They started out as a Jazz band
Imagine having so many riffs, hooks, rhythms, and melodies that you can afford to put a bunch into one song, and still make the remaining album a masterpiece. And then release 4 more groundbreaking albums.
Timely.
Black Sabbath was a three piece (add the singer for four) band, and basically a blues band at that. However, since the drummer has a pronounced jazz feel in a lot of his playing, you could say they where a jazz three piece also. Being a three piece (guitar, bass, and drums) leaves a great deal of space that can be filled without stepping all over each other. Their blues roots seem to make them pick their spots, to do a run or a fill, and so never ends up as just a bunch of notes. Whatever they play adds, and does not detract. When they do go wild, like the guitar solo, the bass and drums are moving all over the place, but never stepping on the guitar, or each other. That all comes down to feel, or "bounce" as one of you put it. For a lot of hard rock, the really good stuff, it has to swing, or have a groove to it, otherwise its three chords over 4/4 time. AC/DC's "Back In Black" grooves, Aerosmith's "Sweet Emotion" grooves. If there were no Blues, or no R&B, there would have never have been Hard Rock.
Damn, loved this. Are you always a trio ? Tate was in some deep thoughts. I’m on his page about Ozzie. He was better in Sabbath. If Tate is in this, I’ll sub
I've always thought the ending was a reflection of fast we could escalate to nuclear war.
"better than I deserve"

Epic song, from an epic metal band.
Hand of DOOM and Fairies Wear Boots.. great transitions, drums, guitar and bass work...
