1970, people. *1970.* NOTHING had ever sounded like this before, and it would take many years until other bands caught up with this sound. This album still holds up today, still sounds fresh. It's crazy how different Sabbath sounded compared to other bands at the time. It's insane how innovative they were--so much to the point where I view music history as pre-Sabbath and post-Sabbath.
did old people think it was satanic? lol
yes man, this album could be released 5 years ahead, would still be fresh, cool, innovative
@@tonoblanco1931 people still do. I'm pretty young and I grew up with neighbors who were oppressively religious Christians, and they would literally cover their ears if they came over and heard that I was listening to even just Led Zeppelin.
I agree. I think the case can be made that they are one of the very top greatest rock bands of all time. Not just heavy metal.
Hahas sort of like people think of post and pre Beethoven in classical music!
They weren’t ahead of the game…..they invented the game.
You're not wrong
Facts 🤘
This
That's kind of the same as being ahead as well, its both.
@@daniellysohirka5079 "That's kind of the same as being ahead as well, its both." 🤓
My mom was in high school when the first Sabbath albums came out. Last weekend I asked what people thought of them at the time and her eyes got wide. She basically said, imagine being born into a world where heavy metal didn’t exist and one day it just gets dropped in your lap. People lost it.
That makes me happy 😁🤘
I was in the Navy when I purchased their first album. I was stationed on a Destroyer, so the ships store was too small to store albums, so I had to buy their 1st album on cassette. It was 1970, I was 18. I've never heard of them before. The album cover caught my eye, with the scary looking witch in the garden of what looked like a church. Well, when I placed it in my cassette and hit play, I was completely "BLOWN AWAY!!!!" Ozzie's' voice, and the very unique sound of the band. I was hooked for life!!! I'm 70 years old now, and Sabbath sounds just as good as they did to me in 1970.
Thank you for your service and for your love of a Sabbath. I’m 61 and still listen to them weekly (or not daily!).
Never too old for Sabbath and metal period. You started on the ground floor with the first full fleged metal band. And you weren't scared to like it and embrace a new sound. This band still holds water. I see now how many bands were influenced by them.
Ozzy*
I can just imagine putting this shit on for the first time and hearing the song Black Sabbath. What an insane song that is. Really sets the tone for the album.
I grew up with this great music, then went into the Marine Corps in 72. God I am old as f**k now.
Lost In Vegas' deep connection with Sabbath is a beautiful thing.
It's very interesting... They have no nostalgia for this. They "get it" from raw instinct. They get the groove, which is not slick or calculated, just very human and natural.
@@OFR it was their rhythm section that made me fall in love with metal as someone born in the late 90's
they should listen to the rest of their tracks. Of course there will be a lot that don't do it for them but there will be playlist worthy ones as well
Yes indeed.
I'm no longer a heavy metal guy like I was when I was in my late teens, but Black Sabbath is an exception for me. So much musicality, so much groove......so much funk! Especially in their earlier albums.
@@hisholiness4537geezer and ward are an absolutely murderous duo
“NO DISRESPECT WILL EVER BE TOLERATED!!!”
THATS WHY THESE 2 ARE MY BOYS!!!!!
💯
Right, that is the best statement!!
Lol .. I'm not even a fan of Black Sabbath but yeah👌
11:37
The original Black Sabbath were, are and always will be my favorite band EVER! Untouchable.
R u from Birmingham mate
except Never Say Die, that album needed some help.
@@kyleturner1359 Similar with Technical Ecstasy. But like Never Say Die, it still has some great stuff on it, along with the rubbish.
They are tied with Metallica for me. Black Sabbath though might win because of how innovative they were , there is no Metallica without Black Sabbath
Dude I feel you, nothing comes close to Sabbath
“Nobody better say anything bad about Sabbath in my presence. No disrespect will be tolerated!” These dudes 💯 get it!
Geezer Butler on bass and Bill Ward on drums most underrated rythm section in metal still today
...in *Music.
Only rivalled by Bonham and john paul jones in my opinion
What planet you live in? They are the MOST celebrated rhythm section in history. Maybe Tony Williams and Ron Carter comes second, all metalheads adore Sabbath.
Could not possibly agree more with you dude
@@danielcox9504 yes
The beauty of Black Sabbath was they were never concerned with radio airplay, which gave them that freedom to do what ever they wanted to....timing changes, stepping out of pocket. Pure and utter genius.
What's stepping out of pocket?
@@chefboiardeeznutz9881 Being Able to subtilty change the rhythm and move out and around the "pocket" or proper time signature groove to play things that are technically not in proper time but sound good non the less.
@@Jaggedknife11 ohhh, I see. I like that.
And unlike today, they didn't had any pressure to sound extremely technical or extremely heavy. So they could do whatever they wanted to do.
Yeah, but the original Walpurgis lyrics were better than War Pigs'. If you told me ppl listened to that and started coming up with black metal I would not be surprised lol. A lot of anger in it.
Ozzy has that "mad prophet in the wilderness" vocals that just works with that old school sound!
😂😂 that's the best description I've heard
I am absolutely using that in the future, that is brilliant
Why is this so accurate 😂. This is by far the best way I’ve ever heard Ozzy’s voice described. Definitely using this in the future.
Truth
It's like God created a metal band?
I'm so glad you noticed Bill on drums. He was such a beast back there. I feel he is one of the more underrated drummers out there of all time. He should be mentioned along with John Bonham, Ginger Baker etc.
Just pictured ginger Baker in sabbath. All gothed out
Agreed that Ward is the most underrated drummer in rock history
Bill murdered Bonham as a drummer!!
@@wesleyjames8645 let's not get too carried away here. MURDERED? equaled maybe, but murdered? nah
Bill Ward is my personal number one drummer of all time. He’s incredible.
You have to react to "A National Acrobat" by Black Sabbath. Ozzy delivered an amazing melody on a riff in the middle! Is just incredible and Funky too
Yes! My personal favorite Sabbath song
Good call, if they like The Groovy nature of these type of Sabbath songs, they will probably love it.
Hold on a second, they haven't even done Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
Up
Yes, A National Acrobat is my favorite Sabbath song. I do dislike the middle part, but nothing beats the starting riff and the ending.
I'm glad you said that too... we all owe Sabbath the respect and due they deserve for shaping metal as we know it today.
Not only did thay shape metal but also hip-hop and other musical genres
@@jovanjovanovic3449 yeah, Black Sabbath were one of those first few bands that actually experimented with music. Really pushed the boundaries and expanded people's idea of what music can be.
I heard a lot of older metalheads, who were around when Black Sabbath started, say "You young people can't imagine how boring music used to be"
@@barbarusbloodshed6347 I agree, popular music has a formula that people stick with that's why it's to repetitive and boring, that's why most of you and I listen to metal, punk, rock, jazz, blouse...
An SDM comment on a lost in Vegas video? This universe is great
None better
Bill Ward was a jazz drummer, not to forget. 😅
Doesn't sound like jazz to me
I've LITERALLY watched this dozens of times!!!! It still brings a smile to my heart seeing 2 RNB guys come over to our side😜😘
"There's nobody better than Black Sabbath" --- True story
Zacly
I'm happy to see you guys give Bill Ward the credit he deserves as a pioneer of rock and heavy metal drumming. Especially given the fact he plays jazz and blues beats throughout
Everyone is hung up on Bonham, which I get, but I always preferred Ward.
@@titanjde I agree. Nothing against Bonham, but I always liked Ward's playing better
Ward is my favorite drummer
Ward had an edge that Bonham didn't have. No disrespect to Bonham he was a monster drummer.
That jazz influence is what links Sabbath to neo-soul. That sick GROOVE is why I love both Erykah Badu and Sabbath.
Bill Ward was an absolute legend on drums. His use of double bass and the cymbals with a jazz style riff. He's up there with Bonham and Peart.
“This is just ridiculous, this is ridiculous man…” 😂 love seeing people discover Sabbath. Proves they will be timeless forever. Carry on gentleman!
Sabbath was one of a kind. Funny, I was all into Sabbath, but I remember the music critics hated them, I even remember some kids hated them. I never understood because Iommi’s consistently amazing riffs were different than anyone else, Ozzy’s voice was perfect, Ward was another Bonzo who never got the credit, and Geezer was my hero of the group. Between his lyrics and his bass runs harmonies and fills, I tried to imitate his playing style when I played. Excellent video and thanks for making me listen to them again with 15 year olds ears lol!!
Agree with your take on it I was a huge fan too (in my pre Christian days) didn't see Sabs live but saw Ozzy 4 or 5 times was superb. Interview with Bill Ward revealed that Geezer was dabbling in satanism Ward is a former alcoholic but is my favourite member lovely honest guy and an AMAZING musician 🥁
@@RevGary just out of curiosity, not trying to be rude, do you not like them anymore, or you just can't/don't wanna listen to them?
@@jolaguem seldom listen to them but do still appreciate them and many secular songs AC-DC were my favourite and Whitesnake (been listening to the early stuff for the last hour on YT) Rush, MSG, Van Halen but I'm 57 now usually picking Hymns for Sunday services lol but LOVE contemporary Christian praise music with a rocky edge I find surpasses my rock classic favourites because they play to my spirit whilst secular music plays to my flesh (human hedonistic desires) lyrics no longer mean anything as they don't often glorify righteousness. I was massively into the Dance and clubbing scene in the 90s loved uplifting House music trance etc but after my conversion 1999 repented of my old ways and adopted the wonderful Christian music available on CD. I play guitar (poorly) as a hobby still dip into my old Rock bands now and again nostalgic tbh. I stay close to where Angus and Malcolm Young were born and raised North East Glasgow 🏴👍🇬🇧
@@jolaguem BTW you're certainly not rude the opposite you're gentlemanly 👍😎
@@RevGary interesting to me, some of Sabbath’s lyrics, especially on Masters of Reality and SBS I felt they were, in their way, spiritually searching. I could be wrong, and never dig deeper into the lyrics, but some sounded as if there was more of a despair toward mankind but intentionally not blaming God. I could have romanticized my interpretation of the lyrics, we all do to some extent, but I felt like there was a search for some meaning, at least some of the songs.
I can't even listen to this without expecting to hear Rat Salad next, lol. That's how consistent those early albums are. Each album more of an experience in and of itself rather than the individual songs on their own.
Yup i think the same, it is too bad that they dont react to the whole album, maybe some patreon can push them to do it XD
Even more so with Master of Reality - the songs flow into each other so naturally - it's an absolute masterpiece
Rat Salad gang rise up!
Yo man well said
@@Vaylash Master of Reality is so fuckin good lmao
I absolutely love these two guys, they have a opened mind on all types of levels of music and appreciation is always on there list of when credit is due! Good channel guys keep this shit up!
I was 11 years old in 1971 when my brother-in-law dropped the needle on this album. It altered my life, literally. My mates were listening to am radio hits and I played this for them. Needless to say I started a legion of young metal heads.
I was 11 n had been listening to Elton John n Kiki Dee n it was breaking my heart. I heard my uncle playing this song, I stole his 8 track, brought it home n within a couple months had all their albums up to Sabotage. N yes I returned his 8 track n then asked him what his poster meant.
'A friend with weed
Is a friend indeed
Another turning point in my young inexperienced life. Opiated Tie Sticks had me buying lots of black light posters
Sabotage will always be my favorite album of all time. It reminds me of 7th grade algebra homework
I was born in brum 1960 the greatest place to be to watch live music so many venues to play the big bang of metal sabbath, priest
Honestly, the ENTIRE “Paranoid” album is AMAZING. For ANY genre.
I got the Paranoid album as a xmas present, when I was 11 years old, it still is by far my favorite BS album, and one of the greatest albums ever for me.
Paranoid was the album that taught Metal how to walk....
Master of Reality is mine. 😎👍🤟
hell yes
@@Midnightmidway "just 'cause you spend most of your time on your back, doesn't make you a missionary." 😄
Children of the Grave, fellas. Absolutely everything you guys love about Sabbath in one of their best and most influential songs. Everyone shines on that one.
My fav sabbath song of all time
Yes... Children of the Grave. I especially love the way the drums sound in this one. So cool.
NIB has to be on that list as well I would think
This is the priceless artistic value of Black Sabbath: heavy but blended with many musical genres and styles, not just blues. All records have something, jazz, latin, spanish you can find them all!!
I’m 27, and hands down Black Sabbath is my favorite band of all time. Ultimate 🐐
You can't know how gratifying to see this music so many of us have loved for decades finally cross cultural barriers. The depth of honest, high quality art produced between 1965 and 1995 is really amazing. And anything you haven't heard before is "new music." Kudos to you guys for checking it out with an open mind. And you nailed it, Bill Ward was the sauce.
i liked the fact you said 1965 to 1995. The Ozzy era will always be #1 to me - those first 6 records are works of art (TE and NSD i also enjoy). The Dio records were brilliant. Born Again with Ian Gillan is criminally overlooked and underrated. The Tony Martin era gets no love or respect which is a shame because there's so much quality there. 'Tyr' in particular is my favourite from the era and that album is superb from start to finish. 'Forbidden' ain't even that bad either, has some gems. ('Seventh Star' with Glenn Hughes is pretty killer too).
Can't Get Close Enough To You is one of my all time favourite sabbath songs, same with When Death Calls(feat Brian May)
always good to hear some love for Bill Ward. criminally underrated drummer
One of the best in the 70s hands down
Bill wasn't underrated. The industry tried to ignore this band. They were still searching for another Beetles, or Stones. They had no idea what to do with these guys. Anyway, Sabbath's talent was widely known. Music executives have always done this crap to bands that didn't fit in their box, still to this day.
@@bettyrose959 I don't think it's fair to say the industry ignored them. Sabbath did huge tours, and were signed to a major label
@@rorz999 Yes they were. Not my point. They hit US shores as a headliner, doin' shows at, and I quote Iommi, 'shit holes.' No radio airplay, and only UK sales to fund their tour. There was nobody the industry could pair them with. No one was doing anything like Sabbath at the time. Make no mistake though, no one in the industry underrated the talent in the band. The industry had a very difficult time with their first two album master pieces. It was against everything mainstream at the time. With them thinking they were 'heavy metal.' Which was a term used on all the bands that came out of the industrial areas in the UK. Sabbath had never even heard the term used before, along with everybody else. It was a term used on an article to describe where the bands came from, not the style of music they played. No one knew what they were listening to in Sabbaths beginning.
I watched the video of Black Sabbath performing 'War Pigs' in Paris in 1970. I was like "HOLY SHIT!!! BILL WARD!!!" A transcendent performance by a virtuoso.
"ain't nobody better than Black Sabbath!"
Me: "you are goddamned right!"
100%
Please do “The Writ”, “Sabbath Bloody Sabbath” and “Planet Caravan” you will be even more in love with what this genious can do!!
An underrated gem from Paranoid. A song that created a whole genre.
Yeah I was thinking about that too, the whole Pixies/Nirvana with the quiet/loud/quiet could have started here?
@@Chadner I was talking about doom metal , but grunge bands (AIC, Soundgarden) definitely had a MAJOR crush on Sabbath. I don't know about Pixies, though.
@@Chadner Nirvana took Sabbath and Pixies and mixed them with The Beatles!
I also hear a lot of RATM in this as well.
@@HenritheHorse Please don't ever mention Nirvana in the same sentence as Sabbath again. The most overrated band in history. And to be clear, I am talking about Nirvana as the most overrated band in history.
A song about US troops coming back from Vietnam and becoming addicted to Heroin after what they endured. In their early days they played gigs for the American troops in their bases in the UK and some of the people they met and the horrors they endured. Bill WARD explained this on a programme about the recording of Paranoid and ended up in tears
Geezer wrote gr8 lyrics... & Ozzy came up with melodies for them that fit like puzzle pieces which ended up, literally creating the tune. And "Stony Tony" would tap into his library of riffs & DONE. TRAC finished. Bill Ward So underrated too!!!!! Without Bill Ward's DRIVING, JAZZ style A lot of SABBS songs just ain't the same.
It was actually in Hamburg where they met the American soldiers.
BS! You guys need to stop thinking everything is about you
Electric Funeral , After Forever , Children Of The Grave...the list goes on and on. Love the band!!!
Damm straight William!
Supernut off Vol 4 was my idea best song from Sabbath! Of course there’s so so many! Love this band since 76/77 in my late 50s today!
The white zombie cover of children of the grave on the nativity in black tribute album is just insanely good.
@@johnharris6676 snowblind my favorite
When George said hip-hop about the drumming during the verse, I was like, yep! I've always felt that it had a hip-hop feel to it. I've heard covers of this song, but no one could replicate Ward's drumming, especially his feel!
What you mean is hip-hop sounds like heavy metal Beats. After all Black Sabbath was here long before rap
Its a swing beat, Slowed down.
@@ryanmcguire9951 really
@@johnadams1856 is that a question? If so, I don't understand why in the age where you have all of the modern information at your finger tips, we don't do any kind of research. Yes, google it
@@ryanmcguire9951 laughing my ass off. So you're one of the many morons who believe everything on Google to be truth. What a foolish individual you are. Read books because all the information you are getting from Google has been censored and no longer represents actual truth.
I must say, I listen to a plethora of different bands across the ages, but going back to Sabbath never gets old, never goes wrong, theirs music is just right, never tires, they are like a foundational rock upon which all metal stands firm, ageless.
Foundational rock, indeed! You might even call them a hard rock!
Foundational Rock could be a genre reserved for bands like Sabbath bro
Well said💯💥
Every Black Sabbath album with the original members is legend.
No filler.
All hits.
All hooks.
Bill Ward is so underrated and I don't know why; he is my favorite drummer by far, always grooving, swinging , jazzying it up underneath all that heaviness; his drum fills are not flashy but just pure finesse. Listen to Sabbath without him and you'll find that fifth element is gone. Bill Ward is up there with the great rock drummers.
"No disrespect will be tolerated" ❤️
I'm so happy they got to this one. The Sabbath song National Acrobat is another one you guys will love.
Yeasss or the title track, they haven’t touched that album yet
Now consider that the bass, drums, & guitar for this were recorded together in a single take
Exactly no digital. All recorded raw
True story!
My most favorite way to record!
@@normansawatzky4778 especially when you get that magic take!!
No protooles, just men and instruments, real music and real felling in ever note
Lost in Vegas..... true and honest reactions unlike all the "actors" on TH-cam trying to fake it these days.
greatest band ever....i've seen them from 73 to 2015 even after bill ward left, musicians just off the hook....even when ozzy plays the harmonica on the wizard, he's as fast as bill ward on drums....their songs change so many times they for sure keep you on your toes....too bad you never got to see them live, geezer and iommi would have blown you out of your seats
It's rare, almost never happens, when a legendary band actually lives up to the hype of their legendary status. BUT Black Sabbath is as Ryan said, THE TRUTH!
16:23 Ryan's reaction when they bring the groove back in the end is priceless.
Yeah he's really funny.
Ryan's my man, bro!
Wow…best analysis/reaction I’ve ever heard. You guys guys are the shit!!! Birth of metal out of funky fire 🔥
Bill Ward!! I love Ozzy as a vocalist. He gives a feel to each song that only a very few singers are capable of.
He s better than people think.
Sabbath bloody Sabbath, Supernaut and Snowblind , The Sabotage, Technical Ecstasy stuff, its far from beign easy.
The feel, the attack, the tone.
He s in full voice and the keys are hard.
Its a lot more high and tough to hit than people think.
Its hard, like Diary of madman, is nit easy to sing at all
Key phrase, "ahead of the game." No doubt about that. Ward? So incredible. The entire Metal world is built on his playing.
Black Sabbath is a band that weather you're a teenager, a pre teen, in your 20s, 30s, or even a middle-aged or an old guy, you'll like it. That's the power of this band.
the groove in this song is legendary
Bill Ward and Geezer Butler are the greatest rhythm section in all of rock music in that generation.
A monstrous track from a devastating album
Black Sabbath were amazing musicians. As well as being innovators, they were one of those bands that had the same kind of "magic" that Zeppelin had. Individually the were amazing musicians, together, they were better than the sum of the parts. They way they clicked as musicians was a chemistry that is exceedingly rare and beautiful.
They had their own magic. Black Sabbath are like Zeppelin's ugly cousin.
Two monster seventies bands. Sabbath is my personal choice between the two, because of their quantity of tracks vs. Zeppelin. But, zeppelin had quality.
Sabbath had more good albums, song for song, IMO. But, zeppelin’s best songs are better than Sabbath’s best, if that makes sense.
Your reactions to Sabbath (Both Ozzy and Dio eras) really make me smile, to see so much joy and appreciation for this music is awesome. The Dio and Ozzy eras are really two different bands but both equally awesome. As awesome as Dio was he didn't sound right singing the Ozzy songs and obviously Ozzy couldn't sing a Dio song if you put a gun to his head. Two very unique voices that worked perfectly for their particular versions of Sabbath.
Ozzy could barely sing an Ozzy song if you put a gun to his head lol. But he is still my favourite of the 2. Even though the Dio albums were awesome. But Live Evil was terrible.
@@KirkMeighooChannel I like to think of the Dio era as just RJD featuring Black Sabbath. Ozzy's Sabbath was untouchable and they're two completely different sounds. Love em both
@@JungleJuiceJoey Ozzy said that Sabbath with Dio was Rainbow, and he was right. They had two awesome albums, but it was not the same band at all. And Rainbow is great. But they're not Sabbath. Ozzy with Randy Rhodes was a truer heir to Sabbath.
Ozzy did like the Gillan album, and I love it too. He said that that sounded more like Sabbath, and I agree. It was totally fitting that they did just one awesome, chaotic crash and burn album. I saw that tour, and then saw the Spinal Tap movie, where they made fun of the Stonehenge set lol. But that Gillan album/tour was perfect, over-the-top, ham-it-up, taking-the-piss, but brutal af.
@@KirkMeighooChannel yup hit the nail on the head!!! RJD has a specific sound that doesn't really match anything else out there.
Yep! I like both! Both ozzy and dio were fantastic!
Wheels of Confusion/the Straightener is a must listen from Volume 4
Fairies Wear Boots was my favorite track for the longest time, like 12 years. But i really sat and listened to this one and that section where he says "you're havin a good time, baby, but that won't last." I'm 43 and that shit punched me in the stomach. how many bands covered the heroin epidemic spawned by the Vietnam War? And it took a METAL band to say it. Geezer is a king.
I love what you guys were talking about here. 11:54
As a musician, I can say that there are moments where you'll be playing with a group of guys and there is nothing that can break that pocket. There are some groups that play/have been playing with each other for so long where you'll just sense what everyone else will do musically next (transitions, stops etc.). I'm lucky to have had the pleasure of feeling it myself. There are few bands though that can do it every night, and Sabbath was definitely one of them.
"There's nobody better than Black Sabbath" truth is truth Sabbath could have been great in any genre
Interesting you say that. They were originally a blues band. With a slide guitar player and a saxophone player. "The Pola Tulk Blues Band". They shortened that to "Polka Tulk", and then changed the name to "Earth". THEN Tony Iommi left the band and joined Jethro Tull for like...LOL...a month. He quit and went back, and then they started Black Sabbath.
Planet Caravan- Iommi rips one of the best jazz solos I have ever heard.
This.
Four tremendous geniuses, Black Sabbath was incredible, so ahead of their time!!!♥️♥️♥️😎😎😎
This is my favourite reaction from these guys. It's so hilariously positive lmao
Black Sabbath-Into The The Void live in concert with modern equipment was the doomiest, heaviest thing I’ve ever felt…and I’ve been to hundreds of metal concerts
DUDE RIGHT????? WHEN I HEARD IT LIVE IN 2013 I WAS LIKE =O
@@12poopie dude you need to see in the end from 2017
@@12poopie definitely, I saw them at their last show in the states ever (supposedly) in San Antonio and I was floored. I had always liked that song but hearing it in a modern live setting vs the old LP or CD was vastly different in power. Afterthat concert, the original recording was like sucking on a titty through a t-shirt.
@@j.p.lovecraft1826 - fingering/blue jeans, also?
Definitely. The first time I saw them with Ozzy they opened with War Pigs, Into the Void, then Under the Sun… trifecta of the heaviest songs ever written
God bless your words George, “No one better say nothing about Black Sabbath in my presence!” “Any disrespect will be blocked”! Amen THANK YOU BOTH FOR APPRECIATING MY FAVOITE BAND OF ALL TIME. How about “Snowblind” next?
They already did snowblind.
my favorite band also, been enjoying for 51yrs.....as individuals theyre all tops at what they do, collectively their masters, for originality and sound, any disrespect shown to them are people that dont deserve to listen cause they dont get it......i did love Dio with them also....a different but also great vibe....
Greatest band ever!!! forever!!!
"BIll Ward's cold though boy" LOL!
Of the 402,000 views here, about 20 were mine. Bill Ward's drumming is mentioned often as the driving force behind this song, and Bill's good taste and groove, plus his reaction to melody and changes, speak volumes about his jazz chops--in turn based on drum rudiments as building blocks. Unfortunately, Bill Ward's personal site doesn't permit comments. If it did, I would send this video to him as a reminder of just how much people appreciate him.
Bill Ward w/Geezer Butler are/were? unbeatable!
Something I’ve always noticed relative to ‘Ozzy vs. Dio’ is that while I personally think Dio is a better overall singer, Ozzy is the voice of Sabbath no question. Dio’s vocals have an immense amount of what I can only describe as power but Ozzy has a certain disparity in his voice that to me fits perfectly with the gloomy nature of Sabbath’s early work. Either way both are amazing, strongly recommend Electric Funeral and Planet Caravan from the same album both bona fide Sabbath classics. Keep up the good work guys. 🤘
Agreed. I love Dio’s voice, but when you listen to the Ozzy stuff, I find that Geezer’s lyrics cut much deeper when Ozzy sings just because of his overall tone.
yep, ozzy is Black Sababth, but I still have to say Heaven and Hell is top 3 of Black Sababth albums ranked.
Dio was one of the greats but when talking Black Sabbath, the gloom & doom, that's Ozzy's voice!🤘
Tony Martin is super underrated. 🤘🏻
I'm actually into Ian Gillians one record stint with them, "Born Again". Ian Gillians trademark scream fits Digital Bitch and Hotline perfectly, killa stuff.
Peace
'Under the Sun/Everyday Comes and Goes' is arguably one of sabbath's most underrated bangers ever.
My personal favorite Sabbath song🤘
My favorite Black Sabbath song period
keep pressing, I am trying to get them to react to Under the Sun as well, Ryan will lose it when that killer riff kicks in!
One of the nastiest/sickest riffs from Mister Iommi himself 🔥
I dont think people who say underrated understand what that means. Underrated means never really made it as a band, but the drummer is to good for the unsuccessful band as a whole. Bill ward was never underrated.
You guys really reminded me why this song is so good. Thank you. Bill Ward's dynamic control on his bass drum is something else.
One of the best reactions to this song ever.
Always blows my mind thinking about how this came out over fifty years ago. So far ahead of their time it's insane.
My favorite tune by Black Sabbath by the way. I love that drum groove. And Ozzy's vocals are so damn spooky in this song. Love the horror movie vibe that it gives me
Regarding the Ozzy-vs.-Dio vocalist discussion near the end of the video, I think the fundamental reason why Ozzy sounds right for a song like this while Dio sounds right for a song like Heaven And Hell comes down to STYLE:
- Ozzy had jazzy components in some of his singing, and these earlier Black Sabbath albums were jazzier.
- Dio had a more classical, operatic quality to his singing, and later Black Sabbath songs like Heaven And Hell were more classical & operatic.
- Both singers and both styles were monumental, and served each of their purposes well.
Definitely my favorite from that album, and maybe my favorite BS song of all time as well. 🤘
The pure joy in this reaction. It was infectious, smiling from ear to ear :)
Because of my deep , deep love of RUSH....it took me a long time to admit it. But Black Sabbath is my favorite band ever. There are similarities with Sabbath and RUSH. Smooth transitions , off the charts musicianship , deep deep thought provoking profound lyrics and no harmony vocals. It's worth being old now to have been young then.
Ah, I came to grips with the same thing recently, nevertheless still some of the best bands of all time
I've seen enough of your videos to know you'd love the drums and different changes in HAND OF DOOM. That's why for the past two years it's all I've been recommending. So glad to see you guys got to it.
You guys are the best reaction youtubers. I ve been following you for a long time and it's always a pleasure!!!
First heard this track when I was 13, I’m 48 now and it still blows me away FFS! But what’s so cool is that you guys love it for all the same reasons I did at 13 (and 48!) and you’re right Sabbath were so in the pocket, truly greater than the sum of their parts 🤘
I love your reaction videos. It's like hearing the song for the first time all over again, even though I've heard it a thousand times before.
SABBATH IS MY FAVORITE BAND OF ALL TIME!!! I’ve watched you guys react to it and I have the same feelings when I hear it. The first music I ever bought with my own money was Black Sabbath-greatest hits. That was 40 years ago. I was 7. I bought a tape at a bait and tackle store. I was terrified but more than that I was intrigued. My fascination never stopped. I get just as much joy and excitement watching you guys listen to it as when I do. So glad you guys started this channel. Only a few that do this keep it real. Love and respect you guys for it. 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Think about the fact that Geezer had never played bass prior to the formation of BS. They needed a bass player so he made the switch and by his own admission he sucked, but Bill and Tony were patient, encouraging and worked with him. Today he is held in such high regard. Pretty amazing. Not only that but it seems he actually progressed quite rapidly based on the songs.
Learned something new, I didn’t realize that. Thanks man 🤘🤘
Holy shit! I'm a bass player and I had no idea. Incredible.
Yeah he was like 20 when he switched from rhythm guitar to bass. Literally borrowed a bass from someone who played in the band before them and went ahead
@@paxonearth thats why heaps of his early tracks are played in the higher register. His playing was half way between a conventional rhythm guitar and bass playing, which was great for a band without a rhythm guitarist
@@B---tw3kh All this great classic rock created by guys in their 20's. There is something to be said for not yet knowing the "rules" of musicianship.
Sabbath on those first 5 albums had such a crazy chemistry. The bass compliments the Drums, the drums compliment the guitar and Ozzy was icing on the cake
And the bass of course too is killer.
This is such a great reaction!
“I’m just genetically predisposed to love this sh*t.”
“No disrespect will be tolerated.”
Their reaction gave me an even greater respect for this tune.
"They bring that shit back again". I have not laughed this much for a while 😀 Thanks guys, such a great reaction. You guys do not let us down, not ever. Neither does Black Sabbath. Cheers!
They make a lot of sense and the there's so much humour in this channel😂
I love watching people hear great songs for the first time. It makes me vicariously experience it with y'all and it makes me really happy. You both have great reactions to songs you know are amazing.
Their reaction to Metallica one is my all time favourite
My favorite reaction of all time!!!...I've watched this at least 20 times- bless you both!!!
I saw them in 2013 and they blew the roof off the place. They were all smiling like kids again because the drummer was playing with so much energy. Iomni was like “slow down!” He didn’t though and it was amazing!😂
As a brazilian, the main riff of "Hand of Doom" always sounded like a bossa nova song to me.
Never thought about it but you’re right! Un saludo desde Colombia 🇨🇴
I can hear that too.
thank Bill Ward for that
brasileiro também kk
They definitely had some Brazilian influence in their sound. The bridge of Supernaut has a distinct bossa nova rhythm, which is something that was a total curveball that elevates the song far beyond being just another classic metal song.
Always love your Sabbath reactions. Please react to "Children of the Grave" next.
Hahaaaaa I was NOT disappointed with that first 10 seconds reaction..knew that was coming..even the snap lmfao 💙💙💙
I've been listening to this song since the 70's and it still gives me chills. What a performance. Absolutely incredibly perfect.
Ryan, you'd love their song “Warning” if you love Sabbath's bluesy grove. It’s part of a trio of short songs that lead into the next “A Bit of Finger/ Sleeping Village / Warning” they’re all appetizers for Warning though, that right there is the main entree. It's the song that keeps on giving.
This right here
I would have them react to all of it at once
Omg yes they have to do this!!!!
Warning is the ultimate lets-make-a-solo-so-long-that-we-have-to-break-it-into-27-equally-awesome-parts song.
Well the ,first day that I met ya
I was lookin' in the sky, when the sun turned all a' blur and the thunder clouds rolled by, the sea began to shiver and the wind began to moan
Well, it must have been a sign for me to leave you well alone...
I was born without you baby but my feeling were a little bit to strong, just a little bit to strong
I’ll keep saying it till I’m blue in the face, you guys need to do “The Warning”, it’s 10 minutes of pure blues metal!
YESS!!
Masterpiece of a song
One of their best and it's a cover🤣
Yeah great tune , spent many doobies priming this song up.
The original was great but the Sabbath cover is incredible
The Writ is one of my favorite Black Sabbath songs. 😁🖤
This has always been my all time favorite Sabbath song and one of my favorite songs of all time in general. Love seeing you guys vibe out to the Sabbath jams. George is right about them being the cream of the crop too! Great video as always!
Don't forget about Geezer Butler, he changed the game.
💯💯💯 a GOAT amongst the bassist universe
Because of Tony's accident with a kick press at the metal shop he worked at, severing two of his fingertips, he found that tuning down a 1/2 step made it much more comfortable to play. Geezer tuned down his bass to match, and, voila! A genre was born!
Add to that the fact that he had to fashion prosthetic fingertips to play. There are a lot of fine players out there, and I play a bit myself, but to this day I cannot fathom playing the guitar without feeling the strings. Iommi’s drive and determination are really something to behold. He has my undying respect.
Tony's job lead/boss introduced to Django Reinhardt's music. Django had badly burned his ring and little finger on his left hand and learned to work around it. Tony said that encouraged him to find a way to continue. Adversity can lead to great thing.
And he had to use banjo strings because light gauge guitar strings weren't available at the time.
The first two Sabbath albums were recorded in standard tuning. Master of Reality was done in C#, as was Vol.4 and much of Sabbath Blood Sabbath. Sabotage's "Symptom of the Universe" was standard tuning. Now, "Heaven and Hell" and later were recorded 1/2 step lower in E flat.
This song is in E standard tunning - first 2 albuns E standard, then they changed to 1 1/2 step down.
I remember the first time I really ABSORBED this song, I thought the same thing about the drum and bass line sounding like something out of hip hop, and then realized what year it was made and that's when I truly started to realize their genius even more.
1970, a fuckin great year for music.
Even on their debut album the ending of the song behind the wall of sleep sounds like early hip hop.
@@78vinyl97 yeah I know what u mean
I love revisiting this one... probably my favorite LIV reaction ever. Black Sabbath in '70 was basically a blues rock band with a combination of early heavy metal, jazz, goth, psychedelia - all mixed together & executed perfectly.
Speaking of Ward, think about the limited drum sets of the late 60s and early 70s.. The man used everything available at the time which was fairly basic, to the fullest. And it STILL sounds so good! When we look at the elaborate kits that say Tommy Lee, and Nicko Mcbrain use ( of course they sound insane) we kinda take it for granted. Get back to the roots of Bill Ward, see how the sound has evolved from just small limited kits! Amazing!!
Looooooooove seeing you both seeing Black Sabbath
Really looking forward to whenever you get to their song "Children Of The Grave"
They say his drumming is so hip hop, but was there hip hop in 1970? It's so Sabbath, baby! That's not meant as a condemnation at all. Just a badge to Sabbath for innovation. Glad you guys are enjoying it.
Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin are the two bands that you can listen to over and over again, and it never gets old. That's called fine art
