alex hefner alex hefner reaction alex hefner reacts this is my first time hearing black sabbath by black sabbath nik nocturnal nolifeshaq first time
black sabbath reaction geezer butler
"Imagine hearing this as a kid or a teenager..." - I don't have to imagine, I was there! My first ever gig was Black Sabbath at the Free Trade Hall, Manchester, UK, November 29th 1971 on the Master Of Reality tour. Life would never be the same again...
Lucky bastard 👍🏻
So basically you saw them after they were already known and their songs had been heard...Now imagine hearing this as a kid or a teenager in 1969-70 before they were known...That's what Alex is referring to
lucky butt. that had to be awesome
First time i heard this it blew me away, been a sabbath fan ever since, for me the greatest rock band ever
Check out into the void. You won't be disappointed!
Just imagine this back in 1969 when it was released… and nothing sounded the same. This is how the first cry of heavy metal sounded like.
No it was released Feb.13, 1970...just so you know.
Truly The Godfather’s of metal/hard rock
Correction, it was recorded and produced in 1969, but they wanted to release it on Friday the 13th in 1970 for PR reasons. :) A genius move if you ask me, given how foreshadowing and freaky many of these songs on this album is.
1970
Yeah..it was playing on the local Album Rock FM station before the LP came out. I was in middle school! My buddy recorded it on his reel to reel so we could listen to it!
“Sounds like the end is coming”
That’s how I personally define the sound of “Doom” Metal.
Yeah, with this song the invented a new genre and a new sub genre at the same time. My favourite metal genre, by the way
Certainly spawned that that genre
Too many notes in this song to be "doom" metal 😏
First Heavy and Doom Metal song!! But not forget that Doom Metal as a New subgenre of Heavy Metal was born officialy in 1986, from Epicus Doomicus Metallicus.
Now back then they called it Stoner rocker Downer Rock
This song is heavy TODAY. Imagine what it must have been like in 1970. Blown folks minds into a different hairdo
Hilarious but true ! !
oh yeah, people were grabbing their crucifixes, praying to god and beating their children for listening to it.
It is no surprise the band was incorrectly thought of as devil worshipers.
@@briandeadmarsh7538 back in the day everybody who was down with Rock was down with the Devil, if you asked the parents who were against it. XD
Oh that's too funny
This really seems to be the first true heavy metal song and heavy metal band, both Black Sabbath fittingly enough. 🤘
They didn't even make speaker's for this type of music back then.. they had to invent shit for this genre.
My father built His own! From floor to ceiling
What colour is the sky in your world?
@@independentjames1 Black. Isn't it that color everywhere?
Dustin....haha...I don't know if that's true...but I wouldn't doubt it if it was...
I guess your joking because I was listening to this back then and there were many makes of superb speakers and amps. How do you think they made and mixed this music in the studios if the speakers were so crap?
For a full Black Sabbath album, "Master Of Reality" is hard to beat.
Dead Kennedy's 👍
So is paranoid
Heaven and Hell? Sabotage?
@@djentyman4002 Maybe Sabotage but not Heaven & Hell, without Ozzy.
@@postmitotic2164 Heaven and Hell to me is better than like 90% of the Ozzy material
It’s hard to believe they came up with their sound at a time where nothing like this had ever been made. It’s just completely mind blowing and will hold the test of time forever. Hail Sabbath 🤘🏼
same could be said about Pink Floyd
they were influenced by demonic precense doing acid ^^
They are the fathers of heavy metal ! No one was as heavy as Black Sabbath in the 70's . They are truly pioneers and legends!
This is definitely not the version that was on the album.
I was looking for a comment like this. The one alex is reacting to is definitely slower by a noticeable amount. Its not as good in my opinion
hes watching the live video
@@joseph6793 His glasses reflect the yellow text of the video on the screen.
@@TheBlackQueen he is watching the live video he even comments on how cool the video is and comments on the bands energy
@@joseph6793 You can literally see the lyric video in his glasses.
The first metal song. Still sends shivers down the spine
I was 9 years old.
Life changed FOREVER.
Nothing More to Say.
"Sabbath Rules "
If I remember right, the inspiration for this song was that the bassist and lyricist, Geezer Butler, had an occult book. He went to bed one night, woke up and saw a dark figure sitting at the foot of his bed. Definitely captures the primal fear and dread with the tritone, the perfect way to kick off metal.
Yep, and it's called "The Devil's Tritone." It was actually forbidden for centuries for any composer to use it in a song. People can be so stupid and brainwashed to think that a few music notes are Satanic in any way.
@@jasonhitchcock8911 actually it wasn’t banned as you can hear a few church choir songs that have tritones
@@jasonhitchcock8911 It was never banned, just infrequently used as it was difficult to use and choreograph musically with their choirs.
@@jasonhitchcock8911 It's actually called the Devil's interval.
"Mars, bringer of War" ... With the 60's/70's twist of the rock bandsof those times, made into a riff.
Perfect example of heavy not always being fast. This is the heaviest song from the 70's. Period!
When everyone is trying to sound heavy, this shit is as heavy as it gets without sounding cheesy!! 🎸
I was introduced to this song at my band's practice 1978....."This is the next song were learning for the show...." ok fantastic, let's hear it.....WHAT!?!?!?!!?! OK, I'm in!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Before this, there was happy pop type music. It`s not long after the summer of love in 1967. There wasn`t anything near as dark as this. I fell in love with Black Sabbath the first time I heard them in 1975. Still my favourite band.
I graduated in 1980. My high school days ran straight thru the 70's. A time of Rock concerts, smokin weed, and girls wearing Daisy Dukes. Yes, my shirt drawer were all Rock concert T-shirts. Several Black Sabbath T's. Saw Ozzy with Sabbath twice and on his own 3 times. Once with Randy Rhodes. Very first concert was way back in 1976. KISS/URIAH HEEP. Destroyer/FIREFLY Tour. I am 59 yrs old now and I can honestly say that every rumor you have ever heard about the 70's were absolutely true LOL.
Please, share more stories with us!
@@xiakala7836 Something that comes to mind is.... I remember missing the school bus on many occasions during the 70's. But in those years all I had to do is go out onto the highway and stick out my thumb. I lived 10 miles from the school. I'll bet you could count 2 or 3 other people hitchhiking during that 10 mile ride home. Something cool about back then was..... We could leave the classroom without permission but, only to get a drink or to use the bathroom. We could leave school grounds and go to McDonalds for lunch. I loved listening to RUSH 2112. Or Deep Purple. And of course.... we ALWAYS fired up a joint after we ate. :)
@@ericfromkokomo Thank you! Sounds like a movie.
I saw these guys in the early seventies
This was their debut album, first track! There was nothing like it beforehand a totally new sound. We were kids in the early 70's and this was a horror movie song playing on a dark night. It really scared us but man what a sound, what emotion, we loved it, our parents hated it. This album is rated by many as the best ever debut by a band in rock history because they created a whole new genre.
John Michael "Ozzy" Osbourne born 3 December 1948 is an English singer, songwriter, and television personality. He rose to prominence during the 1970s as the lead vocalist of the heavy metal band Black Sabbath, during which period he adopted the nickname "Prince of Darknes
Thanks Wikipedia
@@stephenvierling9550 kid I knew this before "Wikipedia" or the internet came out
@@shvirasnowcat8622I don’t doubt that, all I’m saying is that you literally copied and pasted it from Wikipedia bud.
@@stephenvierling9550 no I didn't. I'm a fan and fans tend to know these things WITHOUT Wikipedia you dumb fuck
@@shvirasnowcat8622 I looked it up on Wikipedia and it’s word for word your comment. I don’t know what you’re getting upset about. You copied and pasted from Wikipedia. It’s ok bud.
The 3 note thing going on is also called the “devils triad”. Forbidden in church’s
the "forbidden in churches" thing is a myth buddy
but duh it sounds evil due to its dissonance
@@ppaulisdeadd2710 The exact quote is that the tritone is the devil in music. While the words look damning, it was used as a metaphor. "The devil in music" was because getting three people to sing an octave apart with a sharp 4th in the middle is a pain in the ass to get right.
the devils note or chord or whatever
The same 3 note triad is the opening music to the "Haunted Mansion" at Disneyland. Check it out. It's awesome.
tritonus.
The main riff is taken from a composer called Gustav Holst - The Planets “Mars” written 1914-17
It's actually much older than that, it's called the tri tone or the devils tone.
@@riesa85 you sir, of course, are right.
This doesn't sound like the original track
This doesn’t sound like the original recording. It’s a weird remaster or something. Find the real 1970 original, it’s a way better sound.
Yes, what the hell is this? sounds like the vocals are redone and not anywhere near as good as the original.
He’s watching a live recording. But we get to see a lyric video so he doesn’t get the video removed.
Yeah, obviously a different recording so live makes sense. At least Ozzy is getting lyrics right unlike Paris when he was shitfaced 😂
I think it's an alternate version released on a remastered cd... shame he did a reaction to a poorer version, but it's not his fault
Yes. I don’t like this version. It’s too slow.
The fact the Ozzy is still dropping new music today and there’s almost no change in the voice. I was a little young for the beginning of Black Sabbath but we listened to a lot of it when I was a teen. Crazy Train came out when I was 16 after Ozzy left Sabbath and I saw them in concert in Michigan (don’t remember half of it LOL). I have a long history with Black Sabbath.
Me too...since the early '70s. They were scary as hell back then.
I FINALLY got to see Sabbath on their farewell tour a few years ago and they opened with this song! Ozzy in a big black robe, hunched over the mic, with flames from tiki torches all over the stage! 'F'ing awesome!!
This sounds like a demo version. The album version sounds much better.
Ya I think if he played the original version it would have been blocked. They are infamous blockers
@@manhattanmike6959 Not Sabbath, Warner Bros
@@jaquestraw1 yes the label. Should have been more specific
@@jaquestraw1 I also mentioned the label in My original post
its the official live video audio
Black Sabbath was one of the first bands I ever heard. My Dad is a fan. Been listening to them since birth. 1974
Saw them before you were born 1970
you are too cool man, never quit rocking, this is a bad ass song here im old this was 1968 1st album lol, nobody was playing this stuff iiin 1968, most was peaace and love, sabbath was like amazing
Dude, check out the story behind this song. It's about how Ozzy got ahold of a very old book on black magic and he gave it to Geezer. Apparently Geezer was really into that stuff and he was visited by a black hooded figure while in his bed one night after doing God knows what with the rituals taught in that book. No thank you....
I heard that, when they made this song it was to mock the horror movie genre. They were making fun of the genre.
@@nom3rcyinc.308 no even remotely true lmao
Hmmm.
After that, he got up and ran to the cupboard where he had the book to throw it away but it disappeared.
@@TheBlackQueen No way, wow!
I was 9 in 1970, this scared the heck out of me at the beginning, but when Tony Iommi went into his solo, I was hooked, been 51 years since the birth of Metal
And here is Black Sabbath performing Black Sabbath from their debut album Black Sabbath.
Dude, I saw Black Sabbath on the back of a flatbed truck in a parade in San Francisco in 1970. My cousin and I were so blown away with what we heard we walked the whole 2-3 mile route just to listen to them!
This was released in 1970. Go back and listen to the top 20 songs from 1970, then listen to this. That'll give you an idea of what it may have been like hearing it for the first time back then
I saw them in Sydney 3 times in the early 70's!
As a musician it was life changing!!!
Cheers from Australia!
When I heard this first Sabbath's debut album in Feb 1970 I was in shock and awe, they created a music style which was never known or heard of back then, A masterpiece.
I was about 10 yrs old when I 1st heard Sabbath was the most amazing music I ever heard. I remember going to Ozzfest, it was the Black Sabbath reunion. It was July, hot as balls all day and this was the last song of the night and when the song started it started to thunder and lightning. When Ozzy sang the first lyric the sky just opened up. It was the most amazing experience. That is one Ozzfest I will never forget.
Type O Negative did a killer version of this song! Representing Sabbath perfectly! Type O also did an insane Paranoid version seemingly drawing out a 3 minute banger into a damning infinity!
YES!!!! I was searching to see if anyone mentioned this. Their cover is fantastic!!! Excellent shout.
Their Nativity In Black version is the best version ever of this song, absolutly amazing work!
Type O has 2 versions. Original lyrics and one in Satan’s perspective.
@@KMNixon Yes I know i'm talking about the original, the one in the tribute to Black Sabbath.
that version is fvcking creepy too
I remember sitting in my buddies room we had at his house when we were teenagers, getting High, drinking moonshine and listening to this on the record player! And his mom was cool with everything else, but not that music! She heard that, and it was on!! She busted in flipped over the record player, started ripping all the kiss posters and black light posters off the wall! It was a bad scene
I used to hide my Black Sabbath albums and put on The Moody Blues when my parents came searching my room. Of course, there was as much pot smoking going on at a Moody Blues concert as there was at a Black Sabbath concert. But my parents had no clue……
Tony iomi before blacksabbath played the first concert was working in a steel mill in Birmingham England and was running a press and his hand slipped and chopped off 3 of his fingertips, he then melted plastic bottle caps onto his fingertips and glued some leather strips on them just so he could continue to play the guitar, which in turn gave his guitar playing a much deeper and thicker sound which is amazing in amongst itself
the devils tritone = “oddly hypnotic”
I thought it would be smart to pull an all nighter (it's 5:16am) and I must say I'm glad I did. This is the earliest I've been for a Hefner video. Love it
Bro back when they used to play this song in the early 70s kids used to fucking scream and run out. But yeah the song is very simple super effective and very evil sounding. The main guitar riff is actually connected to this thing called the tri tone The flat fit and back in the Middle Ages you were not allowed to play that note because they believed it was the Devil’s note. If you played it you were basically calling upon Satan. But yeah when Black Sabbath wrote this song they clearly had no idea what they were doing they had no idea that they were basically giving birth to a new genre of music. They basically wrote the song because they just wanted to scare people they used to rehearse across the street from a movie theater in Birmingham England And Tony Iommi said it’s really weird that people pay money to go to the movie theater to get scared why don’t we write scary music.
the "forbidden in churches" thing is a myth buddy, look it up
but duh it sounds evil due to its dissonance
Tony Iommi says in his autobiography that they didn't know about the whole "devil's triad" chords, or whatever it's called. There may be something to that note combination, but according to Tony, they pretty much stumbled across it by accident. They all just thought it sounded ominous, and it fit with what they were doing.
sure.....
ua-cam.com/video/eR5yzCH5CsM/v-deo.html
Simple is relative , the Drum parts aren't that simple .
Its very slow and back beat , even there s not a lot of notes ( except the end ) , this is hard to control and made that effective .
@@josephbarr1659 they would have known about it because it's also the blue note in the blues scale. It's just that you don't generally linger on it, this riff plays the root, the octave of the same note, then goes to the flat fifth and just camps out there, sounding onimous as hell. In blues you hit that note on your way to other notes (a "passing tone"). Geezer was mucking about trying to play "Mars" from War of the Worlds, but was playing it wrong. That's how they came up with the main riff.
I know I had heard Black Sabbath, and I was obviously an Ozzy fan, but I remember the first time I heard this song. It was my junior year (1993), prom night. A buddy and I went stag (I had no intention of going but got talked into it) and had a decent time. At after prom, the only prize I won was a gift certificate to a nearby truck stop. A bunch of us went there afterward, and I found We Sold Our Souls For Rock N Roll on cassette. I bought it, and as soon as I got home, stripped down to a pair of shorts, put this in my cassette deck, and hit play. This song was up first, and was one of the most beautiful things I had ever heard. I eventually bought this album, and it's one of the most important metal albums ever.
Here's some history, because I know you dig that. The bassist, Geezer Butler, was into the occult. He had bought a book on it, and one night after reading it, he fell asleep, only to wake up and see a dark figure standing at the foot of his bed. He and Ozzy used the experience to write this song. The simple three note structure is what is known as the Devil's Chord, because of it's dissonant sound. It was actually banned by the church in the middle ages because it was believed to be evil. And that beautiful, low guitar sound? It was created out of necessity. Tony Iommi was working in a plant that made metal fixtures. He was quitting, and on his last day at work, a machine came down and cut the tips off of two of his fretting fingers. He actually created fake finger tips out of a plastic bottle and covered them with leather so he could still play. But he had to tune is guitar lower so he could still bend the strings. They described their style as dark blues, and on this album you'll hear that blues influence. Enjoy!
Black Sabbath gave direction to my musical taste, it's been 40 years, everlasting love !
“Everything is dirty bro!” LOL.
Love it, nobody was making music like them then or now. The Godfather’s of Metal. I can remember listening to this album when I got my first real sound system. Crunchy guitars, pounding drums, slapping bass, and Ozzy bringing the heat with those bone chilling vocals.
Was wondering when you would get to this song.
Funnily enough, first time I heard this was in my car and I've got SiriusXM. Ozzy's Boneyard plays this on occasion and I was intrigued cause I'd never heard it until then and the rain backdrop had my curiosity. The tolling bell just added to it then that iconic riff from Tony comes and I'm like YYYEEEESSSSS! Dude, this shit sounds so damn dark! I love it!
This is one of the most badass songs ever written and you CAN NOT tell me otherwise. OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!
What we have to understand is no one was making music like this. No one.
It was so dark, so foreboding, unlike any styles around at that time. And there was a market for it.
They created dark heavy metal, they were the fathers to all the bands that followed.
Black Sabbath were the founders of heavy metal.
"Imagine hearing this as a kid or a teenager..."
I don't have to, it's a memory of mine! A cherished memory of mine is falling asleep to this album when I realized it's glory during my high school years! Dude you gotta do The Wizard! And this time do the album version!
Is this an alternate take version or a remaster? Sounds VERY different from what I know on the CDs
1970, age 21 is when I first heard Black Sabbath... at my (then) boyfriend's parents house. He was so excited to play this cassette tape of music he just discovered.
It was his music jam much more than mine, but I immediately became a fan.
This song as well as the album helped pioneer not only the metal genre, but also helped create the Doom Metal sub genre.
ALEX THOSE REPEATING GUITAR NOTES ARE CALLED THE TRI-TONE OR A TRIAD IN MUSIC SPEAK...ITS MEANT TO REPRESENT DARKNESS AND DISOREDER..SABBATH ARE THE GRANDFATHERS OF METAL HANDS DOWN!!! PEACE FROM THE NORTHEAST...
It's not a triad (that's a root-third-fifth chord); it *is* a tritone and it's the most dissonant interval in Western music (b5/#4). It was considered "the Devil's interval/Diabolus in musica" in the Baroque and Classical era, but totally used in blues music.
"Snowblind" next please!!
Long haired stoner kid listening to Black Sabbath at the school smoke pit ?
Yep that was me !
🤘❤🇨🇦
My first concert was BLACK SABATH, we had all the great music. I was walking across the open area in front of the stage - stoned and out of the darkness came Sweet Leaf.
The two songs i want to see his reaction to most are:
Admist The Grave's Demons - Suck My 401k
Opeth - Ghost of Perdition (official LIVE)
One is a banger and one is a masterpiece!
Now, of course there are many many others, but Alex's hands are full.
I want him to react to Blackwater Park
I could second this
He already did Ghost of Perdition. I want him to react to Blackwater Park.
"sounds like the damn end is coming"... Yeah, DOOM metal, it's the best
i remember sitting in the old mans station wagon as a 6 year old kid in 1971....was dial switching the radio in Lawton Oklahoma ...when Black Sabbath suddenly came on the radio..i was frozen for a second hearing their music ...the heavy ass sound bass and drums ....then my dad slapped my hand on the radio knob and said .."THAT IS DEVIL MUSIC"..and turn the station back to his country music station....but i was hooked on metal that very second i heard it ....first concert Alice Cooper 1979...at 15...
YES FINALLY. next do "N.I.B" by sabbath, one of the greatest guitar outros of all time
Alex, please react to Anseio- Jhonatan Bastos. He is a brasilian guitarrist without arms and then he uses his feet to play. It is amazing
I’m here from the “Upload here.” What was that all about Alex?
Taken down by bots. Auto match content. Happens all the time on reaction videos. It should not due to fair use but that does not stop it. Full screen video, no actual crique..yep some labels very bad about it. Bots too.
This is a live version of the song which was first released back in 1999 in a EP CD called Black mass and the recordings are from Hamburg from 1970...They released it , as far as i remember , before their [then] final shows in NEC Arena 21,22 December 1999... It is both audio and video.
Yes I was so f... Ing crazy dude!
No one else had ever done it like that.
Check out Black Sabbath "Supernaught" or "Snowblind" 😉
This must’ve been a live version?
remastered is my guess
@@XA351GT not just, something weird with the tempos
Yes it was. The studio version has a far better production.
It is
I don't remember ever hearing gurgling water sounds in this before.
I was just 8 years old when my brother played this, I was like, I like this song. My brother said, "it's just the beginning ". Then came Hendrix, Jefferson Airplane, Pink Floyd etc. All the acid rock.
There are none better than Black Sabbath. I grew up listening to these guys. Oh how great the 70s music scene was.
Oh yeah.... I forgot to add..... "Keep on Truckin!" and "DISCO STILL SUCKS!"
Doesn't sound like the original album version to me..
As no other comment mentioned it until yours'. I though I was going crazy by not knowing this version
I *think* this is from the music video back in the day and they rerecorded as they played for the video.
I think this one is a remaster? Ozzys vocals don't have the echo for as long and there was maybe two lines I didn't recognise, I have heard but not as often as the original album, Tony's guitar doesn't sound as distorted, and I think the drums sound a little more clear. I could be wrong.
This is a live version recorded during the same session they recorded their version of Blue Suede Shoes.
My nice, wholesome, Mormon cousins from Utah were vacationing with their parents and stayed 2 nights at our house. They had this album and Paranoid (on 8-track tape) and they exposed me to Black Sabbath. I knew that I'd found the type of music that I'd been seeking my whole life to that point.
On Black Sabbath's final album "13", it ended with the thunder and church bells. Such a great callback.
Strange version this.. anyhow, type o negatives version from the satanic perspective is pretty sweet, even black sabbath themselves gave it credit.
BEST BAND IN THE FRICKIN WORLD
Children of the Grave next!!
Supernaut, Into the Void, Sabbra Cadabra, After Forever, Voodoo, Killing Yourself to Live, Sweet Leaf, Hole in the Sky, Neon Nights, among other great tunes are a must, you actually cannot go wrong with Black Sabbath, the Ozzy era, Dio, and Tony Martin era's were great
This song is #1 on Mojo’s top 100 Heavy Metal Songs.
The whole album is a work of art.
Ozzy and the drummer are at the highest level of musical talent.
This doesn't sound like the original version.sounds weird to my ears.
It sounds like it’s slowed down somehow…
@@enkeli19 parts of it also sound a little fast.theres some parts where ozzys singing sounds like it a tiny bit sped up.weird.
Who make music like this? Every Doom Band on the planet. Lol.
Not at that time, no. That's what Alex was saying.
@@kevinunderwood4104 I know.
First time I heard thisssssss.......aw man....pure power of voice, instrumentation and melody driving the lyric like a freaking runaway freight train ploughing through the evolutionary mud of Heavy Metal Rock n' Rolla.
Im 44 years old was born in 1977 my parents were bikers and I was a freak at school. Purple mohawk blue mohawk I skated and was just a crazy wierdo ( but in the fun kind of way) I just never cared what anyone thought of me. I actually got along with EVERYONE which was kind of unheard of in the 80s and 90s so growing up my mother taught me Black Sabbath and Pink Floyd (2 of her favorites along with AC/DC and ZZ Top and Led Zeppelin. My mom was the shit!!!! i miss her so much ❤️. So in return I taught her Sisters of Mercy, Skinny Puppy and The Misfits. She dug them too so we had great music in my house at all times!!!
true metal🔥 but the version he’s listening to sounds weird idk why
At least I can appreciate an annoying delayed echo effect, idk why too
Sounds like it's been remastered or altered. I know the original version real well, listened to it I don't know how many times.
Yeap, also the bell should be a bit louder. Must be some kind of "remastered" version that has been tampered a bit to perhaps bring the vocals just a bit to the front. Also, the drumming sounds kinda different.... inb4, FUCK YOU SHARON
Agreed 💯%. This is a remaster, and judging by the fact that the vocals are much more prominent in this version, I'm inclined to agree that Sharon had something to do with it. 😡
Tony's guitar 🎸 and Geezer's bass (and even Bill's drumming) are noticeably more quiet in this version. I don't appreciate that.
@@josephbarr1659 It’s a live version, check the link on the description
A stoned Elon Musk in the background approves.
Yep. This is basically the song that started it all. The entire genre of Heavy Metal was created by Tony Iommi's severed fingertips.
The first time I heard this song was actually in Germany in 1989 from a cassette tape my brother sent me. I immediately said, "Oh! It's Ozzy!". But it was much more than that. Sabbath was like nothing I had ever heard before, but at the same time it was like everything I had heard before. And that's because unbeknownst to me at the time, Sabbath influenced every major heavy metal band that was popular from my generation.
God bless Tony Iommi. 🤘❤️🤘
I was there my ,man. That's exactly what we did. We skipped class and smoked weed. We listened to Sabbath, Zeppelin. The first time I heard Sabbath was in 1970. I was in the woods smoking weed with my friends. I had long hair. Those were the days. These are the days, too.
Need another Metallica album
Agreed!
yeah...Kill 'Em All
"What is this that stands before me?....A figure in Black which point at me" When this Album was recorded, the band was HEAVILY into the Occult, and the Bass player ( Geezer Butler), said he saw this figure at the foot of his Bed in the middle of the Night when he woke up.
1971 ... 16 years old ... high school football two-a-days in Sewanee, Tennessee ... staying in dorm at Sewanee Military Academy ... my roomie puts this album on ... heavy metal and Ozzy have been a fixture in my life ever since.
I was 13 in '73 at my girlfriends house and her older brother was playing this album. been hooked ever since!
High School on 3 hits of acid. I ditched school and hung out with my friends that were already thrown out, playing bad metal music(because we were not good) and one of my friends puts on this album. Holy shit.
The first time I heard Black Sabbath? Honestly, I was a B-boy Breakdancer from the hood in the early 80’s…found out I could play guitar, got into Motley Crue, quickly went into Thrash…and into Anthrax. I heard their cover of Sabbath Bloody Sabbath…and had to know who they were covering that from…and became an enormous Black Sabbath fan…..thank you Anthrax!!!!!!
And fuck that! Thank you Motley Crue!!! Shout at the Devil, was the reason I got into Metal!!!!
Was a young 13yo musician in 1989/90. Friends introduced me to Sabbath, Motorhead, etc. 60’s and early 70’s were back in fashion
The birth of heavy metal right there!
Originally (if memory serves) they were a blues band named earth. Producers renamed them after a Boris Karloff movie "Black Sabbath" and redirected their writing if songs.
I was about eleven years old,and my friends older brother was working and would buy all these albums.that was '76.great days. 🏴🇬🇧
Okay Alex I'll tell you how I first heard Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath. It was 1972, I was in 8th grade, and a friend of mine was having a party in his mom's basement. There was a phonograph and somebody put this album on. I heard the rain, the thunder, the church bell, and then that huge crashing scary power chord and I was hooked! It literally changed my life. I bought the album and played along with it until I figured out how to play it. That year at my school's talent show, called The Hootenanny, I and some friends played this song and N.I.B., from the same album. And I continued playing kick-ass hard rock guitar with those guys throughout high school. We played Sabbath, Alice Cooper, Led Zep, Uriah Heep to name a few. Black Sabbath changed rock music forever and influenced countless garage bands and even the likes of Metallica. The 70s ruled! Music was awesome and unique. It is good that you are listening to this now grasshopper. Study it, let it permeate your soul.
For the uninitiated. This version of Black Sabbath is from Bremen Beat Club, in May of 1970. It's one of only 3 soundboard recordings of the song Black Sabbath.
You just witnessed the birth of Metal. That opening tri-tone riff AKA "The Devil's Riff", is commonly known as the birth of Metal. Thank you Tony Iommi.
found them in the 80's, so bloody, goddamn gratefull, fortunate enough to see their reunion tour, really was amazing, how does Ozzy still go,and go and go? They were amazing, saw them years ago with Dio, Mob Rules Tour, totlly different
1973. I was 8 years old and followed a friend home after school. He's older brother had a roll tape recorder. We slipped in to his room and started it. Out came this magic tunes, and life would newer be the same...
And this is why people love Black Sabbath!!!
