Metal, being born from the blended influence of blues rock and psychedelic rock, is a genre that embraces pure, raw energy. Maybe that’s why metal is both the best genre for concerts and, incidentally, blowing out speakers.

So Black Sabbath are the only early metal band you should care about, huh? And then you move on to Dio, completely overlooking the entire NWOBHM and Motörhead. And ignore Ozzy’s solo career but for two tracks off “The Ultimate Sin”, in 1986. I gotta say, this is pretty unimpressive.

This isn’t a quibble so much as an effort to engage in conversation… personally I always though of Sweet Leaf as the seminal Metal track from Black Sabbath… and the real launch of Metal came with Sabbath Bloody Sabbath in their 1973 album of the same title. The way the guitar growls in the later parts of the song just gets into your guts and makes your head spin. The interesting thing to me is that even as late as their 5th album, Black Sabbath was still essentially a blues band. I point to Sabbra Cadabra as evidence. ;)

Anyway… that was probably OT for the direction you wanted to take this post. Sorry.

One quick question for another commenter: What kind of hubris does it take to pronounce oneself a “real” anything? I get that in order to do it you have to look down on the “fake” ones, so how do you differentiate real from fake? I ask because I’d like to start promoting myself as a “real human being” and I’d like input from an obvously “fake human being” so I can determine the best way to promote the differences.

You’re a typical commenter – RUDE.

Don’t be mad at me because you don’t bother to check things out ahead of time.

One of whom sang on one of Sabbath’s most underrated albums, Born Again. Forget Paranoid, there is much more important Black Sabbath out there!

I won’t bother with the pitiful vh1 style coverage of sabbath. I can point you towards a vast number of music videos pre-dating the sabbath beatclub footage by years. The Beatles ring a bell? Do research next time! People like you are why I hate the net!
