@@waynestumbo2408 yeah they are the rhythm section nobody could touch. Geezer is also a great inspiration for anyone learning how to play bass. N.I.B was the first song I ever learned how to play on my first bass back in high school. Bill had a real swing to his playing and Geezer's complex bass fills really complemented those beats for sure. Probably my top 3 rhythm sections of any band ever.
El Bruce listen to any stinking metal band out there. Then ask yourself what the resemblance to Sabbath is. Metal sucks...Sabbath is genius, the comparison I really hate is when morons try to say that Zeppelin is early metal. I love rock and blues, metal is neither. As far as Sabbath is concerned, sorry not metal, unique yes, I consider them more progressive then anything. I have tried to listen to your metal. Just a bunch of angry morons, thinking they are making “music”. Screaming and power cords, sorry that just doesn’t cut it for me. Oh yeah Kiss sucks also! You kids know shit. Same morons that listen to metal, also listen to rap.
@Spectre N7 ....Ironic ??.. Soldiers understand this song more than anybody. Especially those who have seen Combat and seen the war machine , and are subject to decisions made by far away politicians/businessmen
@Celtic Revival / Adfywiad Celtaidd ""War is so unjust and ugly that all who wage it must try to stifle the voice of conscience within themselves."" Tolstoy
Not remotely disputing that fact. I'd also suggest Jinjer's "Home Back" - the band was forced to leave their homes due to the war in eastern Ukraine and it is quite poignant.
That was great. Loved seeing you appreciate one of the greatest heavy rock bands ever. If you get a chance have a look at their live version of this in Paris in 1970, the energy is incredible.
That was an outstanding reaction, glad you enjoyed it! I just discovered your channel, and it's cool to see another reactor checking out classic rock & metal. I'll stick around and see where you decide to go. Since there's not a lot of comments here yet, I'll drop just a few facts about Black Sabbath, just in case you don't already know or may be interested. First off, the band (at this point in their history) consisted of: Ozzy Osbourne - vocals Tony Iommi - guitar Geezer Butler - bass Bill Ward - drums They formed in Birmingham, England, in the late 60s (I forget the exact year), and released their first album, the self-titled "Black Sabbath", in 1970. Most metalheads would consider that the birth of true heavy metal music. "War Pigs" is off their 2nd album, also released in 1970. One further note, much of their sound came about because of the fact that Tony Iommi accidentally cut off two of his fingertips in a factory accident, and wore prosthetic fingertips. Those were somewhat painful to play with, so he would "down-tune" his guitar - making the strings looser, but that had the side effect of creating a dark, aggressive, somewhat sludgy sound that helped set Black Sabbath apart from other rock bands of the day. The video is obviously not original, it's a fan-made video that, while well put together, really doesn't have anything to do with the song. I have to be honest, I was a bit worried you were going to focus on it too much and get distracted by it, but it was a good thing that you seemed to really be focused more on listening to the music rather than what was going on on-screen. Well done! As far as additional Black Sabbath that you should listen & react to, well, I'm sure you'll get a million suggestions, but my favorites are "Black Sabbath", "Paranoid", "Children of the Grave", "Snowblind", and "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath" from their time with Ozzy Osbourne. Later, in 1979, they parted ways with Ozzy (who went to have a very successful solo career) and brought in another phenomenal singer, Ronnie James Dio (also a heavy metal legend). Some great suggestions for some of their later work with him would be "Heaven and Hell", "Mob Rules", "Children of the Sea", or "The Sign of the Southern Cross". These are all my personal favorites, so I'm sure other people will disagree.
Black Sabbath. The name says it all. The dark realities of the human condition covered in masterpiece after masterpiece. Bill Ward on Drums, Geezer Butler on Bass, Tony Iommi on Guitar, Ozzy Osbourne on Vocals. These are the pioneers of what is Heavy Metal. To understand what these four legends are all about, do a Reaction to the self-titled track. A piece about a nightmare. The masterpiece is called, and fittingly so, Black Sabbath. Enjoy.
@@nodaysback1 lol....I've learned not to pay too much attention to the word "underrated" on UA-cam....according to UA-cam EVERY player of EVERY instrument is vastly underrated. Usually, it just means that the poster is exceptionally fond of a certain player and I take it more as that. (And the OP in this case definitely has good taste....Geezer is one of my personal favorites as well :-) )
@@nodaysback1 Aw Man, complete agreement....especially regarding the reunion....as much as I would have loved to see Ozzy/Tony/Geezer together...without Bill, it just wasn't complete to me. Especially with how it allegedly went down. And I remember buying that Plastic Planet album the day it came out and was really surprised at just how heavy it was.....as I recall, bass-wise, that album was pretty straight forward, but cool that he put out something that heavy. And I believe he wrote a LOT of the Sabbath lyrics, at least during the Ozzy era....
@@nodaysback1 it's not that people say he isn't any good. He's underrated in such that whenever most people speak of Sabbath it's Ozzy or Iommi that are highlighted. Not often the case for Butler or Ward outside true fans.
One of the main reasons for Sabbaths heavy sound was Tony detuning his guitars cause of a factory accident where he cut of the tips of his fingers on his fret hand and had to detune the strings cause of this
Tony Iommi composed many of his guitar solos as two intertwining leads, recorded separately. Basically, you get a separate solo for each ear, and they fit together.
People always talk about how heavy Zeppelin are for the time and how they were the heaviest when in reality, nothing Zeppelin did every came close to being as heavy as Black Sabbath. MAYBE in my time of dying, but shit Black Sabbath was just so damn heavy
Bill Ward really ripped it up on Drums, sounds so good and Lonni's guitar work, though not real complex was spot on. The entire recording was so crisp.
His early stuff of Sabbath... Ozzy continues to make new songs today including "Under The Graveyard " dropped last week on upcoming album. Ozzy will be 71 next month.
@Ricky Spanish i didnt mean that he was better than Bonham only that we were both enjoying the drums but the song was one of the heaviest ever Generals gathered in their masses fields of bodies burning Satan laughing spreads his wings .do please excuse my punctuation or my punk chew ation or what ever
That sound heard was reverb, chamber and echo mixed for the guitar through a multi effects processor with a dimness of plate added if my memory is right .......I'm ready to Rock & Roll but Black Sabbath is not Rock & Roll. They Started Heavy Metal music.......This was my day & Music @ 64 in a few months.Just for info this song has been rewritten 4 times to what you are playing here. I will leave the ORIGINAL LYRICS for you and others to read and compare...........Peace young Lady and you are learning... Walpurgis (Original Version Of War Pigs) Witches gather at black masses Bodies burning in red ashes On the hill the church in ruin. Is the scene of evil doings It's a place for all bad sinners Watch them eating dead rats' innards. I guess it's the same, where ever you may go Oh lord yeah Carry banners which denounce the lord See me rocking in my grave See them anoint my head with dead rat's blood See them stick the stake through me Oh Don't hold me back cause I just gotta go They've got a hold of my soul now Lords got my brain instinct with blood obscene Look in my eyes I'm there enough Yeah On the scene a priest appears Sinners falling at his knees Satan sends out funeral pyre Casts the priest into the fire It's the place for all bad sinners. Watch them eating dead rats' innards I guess it's the same, where ever you may go Oh lord yeah
One of the best bands of all time. Hope you check out more of their stuff. Any songs off the first six albums will satisfy your hunger for more Black Sabbath 🤘🏻
This song resonates to even today. One of few bands that were WAY ahead of their time. P.S. this video makes this song deeper. Gives it the visual that this song needed. Its like the two halves are finally together P.S....again. You should check out Sysrem of Down- BYOB. To compare its like their version of War Pigs.
That's fair not hearing them till now if you had noone to expose you to it. I know the feeling, grew up around country listeners and didn't hear Sabbath till high school. Also Sabbath are one of the godfathers of creating metal music.
there's a version of that song in 300:rise of an empire. Also you'll wanna check out Iron Man, Fairies wear boots, NIB, Paranoid, Planet caravan. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Black Sabbath(song). All from Sabbath, who are the father's of heavy metal music.
I am so jealous of you that you get to hear this for the first time. I’ve listened to Black Sabbath about a billion times but there’s nothing like the first time. By the way, your life will never be the same again.
In my opinion, this is the GREATEST METAL song EVER MADE!!!!! Why? OUTSTANDING, guitar playing, bass playing, drumming, Ozzy's singing and lyrics!!!!! EVERYTHING in this song is MAJOR KICK-ASS!!!!!!
There are mutliple tracks in some spots. However Tony Iommi is missing two tips of his neck hand( the fret board hand) from a sheet metal accident. That never stopped him from being an excellent guitarist as you've just heard.
I loved the look on your face at the beginning of the song. You were listening but you weren't sure just yet. You are trying to grasp the song then when Ozzy started singing you caught on and you were digging it. Loved it!
Yes, there is a second guitar line in "War Pigs" during the lead guitar solos all of which was written and performed by Tony Iommi, a left handed guitar player who overcame a physical disability as two of his fingertips were gravely injured in the 1960's and they were wrapped in bandages so he had to learn to get his other two fingers on his guitar fretting hand to do what the two wrapped fingers would have done. He had one guitar lesson and then learned from blues 78s as he is a jazz and blues influenced guitar player.
I'm 54, and grew up on Sabbath . My first album was Vol.4, even though my first experience like most was the Black Sabbath album. For me, Master of Reality , album feat. Paranoid , Sabbath Bloody Sabbath , are essential to know what superior musicians and writers they were, especially , " Geezer". Btw, your adorable .
it really warms my old hart to see a young beautiful girl like you rock out to epic music like this and yes bill ward is fuckin amezing on the track and not to forget about the guitar solo aswell keep on rockin sweetie you are the best
That siren you hear at the beginning still strikes fear into my mother; one of the many children evacuated from London during the blitz from the German Luftwaffe. She still recalls running from fighter planes strafing. The guys in Sabbath are too young to recall this, but are a product of that era and its outcome. A Britain propped up by money from America, without pride, still angry, and with defiance.
it's a song about the vietnam war, but some of the imagery here is from WW2. this video was made much later, by someone not affiliated with black sabbath, and they seem to have interpreted the song through a wider lens than just one war --- which is good, because it shows that the original lyrics can have a broader meaning, and not just be locked into one context.
Some more Sabbath songs to try, Black Sabbath(yea they have a song and album that also shares the name with the band), Paranoid, Iron Man, Heaven and Hell, NIB, Children of the Grave, and Into the Void.
The drums... the drums make this song, with the lyrics. The guitar is also crazy mental brilliant. By personally, I love the drums. Ward was amazing on this track. This song is 50 years old, and of the hundreds of thousands of metal songs out there, this is still, still, up with with the very very best.
Black Sabbath " PARANOID " , first " album " I ever purchased as a teenager, been hooked ever since. Got a blacklight and several posters immediately thereafter and did everything else there was to do in the seventies that was a whole lotta fun.
Awesome Sabbath songs: Sweet Leaf, N.I.B, Black Sabbath (song title), After Forever, Thrill of it all, Killing yourself to live, Wheels of confusion/The Straightener (2 parter song), Iron Man, Electric Funeral, Rat Salad, The Wizard
мой милая сестричка) я из России) полностью разделяю твои эмоции) эта музыка невероятна) я рос на этой музыки) я горжусь, что люди могут такое творить) спасибо тебе за реакцию)
This song has never been in a fuckin movie. I doubt its been played on the radio more than once in the entire history of the world, but it's here and being recognised for how fuckin' good it is.
Probably my favorite Sabbath track! They’ve got plenty of other amazing cuts as well, but none hit me harder than this one! A big screw you to the war machine of the 70’s. Mostly in reference to Vietnam but the point still applies even now! Try out Fairies Wear Boots next, you’d dig! Enjoying your journey thus far! Especially Floyd! Check out Shine on You Crazy Diamond whenever you can! You will love it’s groove, trust! A lost in the sauce song forrrr sure! Cheers! 🔥🤟🏻
It's crazy to me that this song is about a half a century old, and it still resonates with people the way it does. It's probably my favorite Black Sabbath song, but I also love Electric Funeral.
When I was a boy about 9 or 10 I was playing Black Sabbath records backwards trying to hear the devil. it never worked. People will tell lies to children because of their own fears. Your a rock star! 🤘🤘🤘
This song already gave me goosebumps then I watched TV show Peaky Blinders in which this song is played... so whenever I hear it now I associate *THE SONG + THE BADASS SCENE = 2X MORE CHILLS*
Wow, mind blown...yes, multiple parts, the pawns in Afghanistan, the drums, Ozzie’s Oh Lord Yea could be in a church service, and judgment day...the guitar just soars...you got it
You are so freaking cool! I love how you truly get into the music and feel it like it was meant for! There's so much awesome music in many different genres so it's refreshing to see someone who is more open. Thank you for doing these videos! I enjoy them thoroughly! 😀
Loved it !! The only reaction of yours that only got interrupted ONCE !! and that was for Bill Ward's awesome drum rhythm. Yes, Tony Iommi often doubles his guitar Post production. Love you and your reactions !!
I would love it if you would add "Steely Dan" as a band you will react to. I don't think you would regret it. Other groups who don't get enough reactions are Santana, ZZ-Top, Moody Blues,
I don't always listen to Black Sabbath, but when I do, so do my neighbors... Good ear on the guitars- yes, the lead guitar is doubled in some parts. Tony Iommi would often combine two solos.
The third band you need to listen to is Deep Purple, maybe check out the live version of Child in Time from the 70s, it’s a classic. Enjoy the videos, keep up the good work! 😀
I'm glad you enjoy Bill Ward's drumming; he's been underappreciated. The whole album that this song is on (Paranoid) has excellent drumming, and it's BS's best. I think you'll also enjoy Deep Purple's albums Machine Head and Made in Japan--they also have a great drummer, and guitarist, and keyboard player, and singer.
I would love to ring your bell. ;) In all seriousness if you dig these drums you should check out "Children of the Grave" by Black Sabbath the drums are phenomenal.

Their song Sabbra Cadabra also has some amazing drumming on it :) One of their greatest songs ever! So good Metallica covered it :)
Don't forget Geezer's wicked bass line.

@@benrogers3386 NIB and Warning reall showed how great they are.
@Salty Kraken you know it
Written at the height of the Vietnam war, plus these guys grew up in England and saw the results of ww2 . Paranoid is another great tune.
Black Sabbath are the Godfathers of Metal Music
AMEN TO THAT BROTHER

@@TANTRUMGASM war is terrible. No one in their right mind would dispute that. But unfortunately it is sometimes necessary
One of the greatest songs of ALL time... Period.
Sabbath songs always have a groove to them that seems to be missing in a lot of modern day metal.

There was a big blues influence in Sabbath.Their music was a lot more nuanced ,because of those other musical interests.
@@sg7335 Agree, and Bill Ward was basically a jazz drummer on steroids.
@@sg7335 yeah, but there's also the 'slow groove-funk' in much of their early material

You should imagine the effect of discovering Black Sabbath in 1972, hearing them for the first time. MIND BLOWN!!!

Geezer’s bass lines are just sick in this song, so underrated.
Geezer's bass lines in ALL of that early stuff were fantastic.....he's just all over the place.....He and Bill Ward were a fantastic rhythm section

@@liamstandish878 in many ways it gave birth to heavy metal, cause of the bands love of Jazz and Rock And Roll

and paranoid and iron man
Hand Of Doom is right up there.
Tony Iommi composed many of his guitar solos as two intertwining leads, recorded separately. Basically, you get a separate solo for each ear, and they fit together.
I never realized until listening now how much this sounds like an old blues song.
Black Sabbath was fundamentally a blues band, a very heavy blues band.
Hard to believe this was 1970
Hard to believe how relevant this song is today...
@@MrUndersolo very true
Not too hard to believe for this old man...time flies.............

This was recorded in the early 70’s in relation to the Vietnam war...and to this day it still relates to what we fear today..
Ozzy Osborne on vocals when he was just a kid. Amazing voice!
That is a masterpiece!
Ozzy went solo after Black Sabbath & so should you w/ anything off of Diary of a Madman or Blizzard of Ozz, me thinks...
His early stuff of Sabbath...
Ozzy continues to make new songs today including "Under The Graveyard " dropped last week on upcoming album. Ozzy will be 71 next month.
He didn't "go solo" he was kicked out of Black Sabbath.
Their song "Electric Funeral" and Snow Blind are my top two Sabbath songs
The Video for this is real good
Yes, Tony Iommi doubles a lot of his guitar solos
almost always he does another/different... lead over top of the first...2 leads in one...like doublemint!!!
Great reaction to one of the heaviest songs ever DRUMS Sabbath nothing better ever

Walpurgis (Original Version Of War Pigs)
Witches gather at black masses
Bodies burning in red ashes
On the hill the church in ruin.
Is the scene of evil doings
It's a place for all bad sinners
Watch them eating dead rats' innards.
I guess it's the same, where ever you may go
Oh lord yeah
Carry banners which denounce the lord
See me rocking in my grave
See them anoint my head with dead rat's blood
See them stick the stake through me
Oh
Don't hold me back cause I just gotta go
They've got a hold of my soul now
Lords got my brain instinct with blood obscene
Look in my eyes I'm there enough
Yeah
On the scene a priest appears
Sinners falling at his knees
Satan sends out funeral pyre
Casts the priest into the fire
It's the place for all bad sinners.
Watch them eating dead rats' innards
I guess it's the same, where ever you may go
Oh lord yeah
One of the best bands of all time. Hope you check out more of their stuff. Any songs off the first six albums will satisfy your hunger for more Black Sabbath 🤘🏻
You should react to Black Sabbath N.I.B another gr8 song by them
Yesss
Supernaut.has the most wicked drum playing
Didn't know until the tribute album that it stood for "Nativity In Black"
Gary Diehl was the word too, too difficult to spell?

ROFLMAO...this song is 50 years old plus and still the message holds true!!!!!!
A new Black Sabbath fan is born!
Hard not to get lost in it, especially with headphones.
Some more Sabbath songs to try, Black Sabbath(yea they have a song and album that also shares the name with the band), Paranoid, Iron Man, Heaven and Hell, NIB, Children of the Grave, and Into the Void.
I saw the original black sabbath back in the 70's ..kept my t-shirts and programs, passed them on to my son, who is now a black sabbath fan.
Black Sabbath's drummer started out as a jazz drummer. Try "Snowblind and Fairies Wear Boots" by Black Sabbath.
Snowblind is great
@@ericfroshnider5002 Yes, definitely!
Snowblind for sure
The drums... the drums make this song, with the lyrics. The guitar is also crazy mental brilliant.
By personally, I love the drums. Ward was amazing on this track.
This song is 50 years old, and of the hundreds of thousands of metal songs out there, this is still, still, up with with the very very best.
ok I'm hooked on this channel..the variety of music and the way you get into it is fucking awesome. I'm here for it
I first heard this as a teenager in a basement with black lights and posters, and a bowl on hand…. It blew me away.
Black Sabbath " PARANOID " , first " album " I ever purchased as a teenager, been hooked ever since. Got a blacklight and several posters immediately thereafter and did everything else there was to do in the seventies that was a whole lotta fun.
Awesome Sabbath songs: Sweet Leaf, N.I.B, Black Sabbath (song title), After Forever, Thrill of it all, Killing yourself to live, Wheels of confusion/The Straightener (2 parter song), Iron Man, Electric Funeral, Rat Salad, The Wizard
The way your face scrunches up and your head starts bobbing when you're really into a song is everything.
you couldn't pick a better song to listen to for the first time, what I'd give to hear this song for the first time
You are one of the first War Pigs reactions to correctly ID the echo/double track on the Iommi's guitar!!
мой милая сестричка) я из России) полностью разделяю твои эмоции) эта музыка невероятна) я рос на этой музыки) я горжусь, что люди могут такое творить) спасибо тебе за реакцию)
Ya said you were ready to rock n roll. Doesn’t get more rocking than War Pigs.
This song has never been in a fuckin movie. I doubt its been played on the radio more than once in the entire history of the world, but it's here and being recognised for how fuckin' good it is.
Probably my favorite Sabbath track! They’ve got plenty of other amazing cuts as well, but none hit me harder than this one! A big screw you to the war machine of the 70’s. Mostly in reference to Vietnam but the point still applies even now! Try out Fairies Wear Boots next, you’d dig! Enjoying your journey thus far! Especially Floyd! Check out Shine on You Crazy Diamond whenever you can! You will love it’s groove, trust! A lost in the sauce song forrrr sure! Cheers! 🔥🤟🏻
It's crazy to me that this song is about a half a century old, and it still resonates with people the way it does. It's probably my favorite Black Sabbath song, but I also love Electric Funeral.
*chills*
That's Bill Ward on drums. My opinion best drummer all time
When I was a boy about 9 or 10 I was playing Black Sabbath records backwards trying to hear the devil. it never worked. People will tell lies to children because of their own fears. Your a rock star! 🤘🤘🤘
I feel like your reaction is making me appreciate this song even more. Masterpiece
This song is a masterpiece, and doesn't need the distraction of a video.
Favourite Sabbath has always been the wizard....that harp gets me everytime
Kinda awesome seeing someone a generation younger appreciate the music I grew up with. Thanks.
This song already gave me goosebumps then I watched TV show Peaky Blinders in which this song is played... so whenever I hear it now I associate *THE SONG + THE BADASS SCENE = 2X MORE CHILLS*
Wow, mind blown...yes, multiple parts, the pawns in Afghanistan, the drums, Ozzie’s Oh Lord Yea could be in a church service, and judgment day...the guitar just soars...you got it
This is my favorite Black Sabbath song!
Fantastic that you are introducing your generation to these old tunes. Hope it gives you all a better understanding of what we believed in.
Well, you gone with Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath, the next logical band is Deep Purple.
You are so freaking cool! I love how you truly get into the music and feel it like it was meant for! There's so much awesome music in many different genres so it's refreshing to see someone who is more open. Thank you for doing these videos! I enjoy them thoroughly! 😀
Loved it !! The only reaction of yours that only got interrupted ONCE !! and that was for Bill Ward's awesome drum rhythm. Yes, Tony Iommi often doubles his guitar Post production.
Love you and your reactions !!
War Pigs is timeless. It's a GREAT song. Looked like you REALLY felt it,,,,it's a gem. GLAD you like it.😎
Lynrd Skynyrd doing freebird live in Oakland 1977 a must listen to and see🤗🇨🇦
the mid 60 to late 70's the music was ethereal, so nice to see
Brutal display of power and musicianship! Loved this one so much. Thank you
Favorite Sabbath songs.. Iron Man, Paranoid, N.I.B. heaven and Hell.
A solid fuckin 10
Great SONG
Great album
Great guitar work
Love this jam
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Love me some. BLACK SABBATH
4:50 Iommi created one of the hardest riffs in rock/metal history. That shit knocks
I watching this and you are closing on 60K subscribers. Every video you react to is making me appreciate you more.
I would love it if you would add "Steely Dan" as a band you will react to. I don't think you would regret it. Other groups who don't get enough reactions are Santana, ZZ-Top, Moody Blues,
I don't always listen to Black Sabbath, but when I do, so do my neighbors...
Good ear on the guitars- yes, the lead guitar is doubled in some parts. Tony Iommi would often combine two solos.
Ole school rock & roll. Love it. Glad your turning yourself on to some rock & roll...
The third band you need to listen to is Deep Purple, maybe check out the live version of Child in Time from the 70s, it’s a classic. Enjoy the videos, keep up the good work! 😀
My dear, your reaction was both wonderful and profound. Also thoughtful. I salute you. Bless!
Way ahead of its time. And it came out at the perfect time.
I'm glad you enjoy Bill Ward's drumming; he's been underappreciated. The whole album that this song is on (Paranoid) has excellent drumming, and it's BS's best. I think you'll also enjoy Deep Purple's albums Machine Head and Made in Japan--they also have a great drummer, and guitarist, and keyboard player, and singer.
I would love to ring your bell. ;)
In all seriousness if you dig these drums you should check out "Children of the Grave" by Black Sabbath the drums are phenomenal.
Yes...there are two solos playing simultaneously... Tony Iommi recorded two solos and they were blended in the mix.
Black Sabbaths the Wizard is the Grooviest rock song of all time you won't regret it :)
