- Black Sabbath - Iron Man
My first foray into the world of Black Sabbath and it started with a bang. Quality catchy riffs with powerful vocals and heavy drums. What a beautiful concoction that all makes!
I do not own the rights to the music or video

Sabbath are considered the fathers of heavy metal. bought their first album Black sabbath when it came out, I was 15 years old mind blowing the lead guitarist lost the tips off two of his fingers in an industrial accident and made his own false tips but had to tune his guitar down because of this and sort of created that heavy metal sound.
@@TerenceShortman that's incredible, to be that good even with that issue is beyond amazing!
Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple - the unholy trinity of British heavy rock
I’ve often wondered where Judas Priest fits in here…..Do you know?
@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 they were one of the earliest 2nd wave bands who were inspired by the above. I suppose you could say the trinity made the template for heavy metal and Judas Priest, and others, were heavy metal
Ozzy era Sabbath! Awrsome! You can't go wrong. You have to do War Pigs next. It's such true song. As for "Changes", its on Vol 4 album, my favorite. Lots of bangers on it and "Laguna Sunrise" is so chill. I play that one and people are like "Who's that?". I say "Sabbath", their heads are blown. It's just a beautiful quiet song. More Ozzy Sabbath please. US Roadie 1 signing out.
@@Pcrimson1 war pigs it is!
Bill Ward's playing on War Pigs is unreal
@@MusicForTheSoulReactionsyou're going to want to do studio for lyrics and to appreciate the bass. And live Paris 1970 for Drummer god, Bill Ward and Riff king Iommi as well as the energy burst it gives you
@@coachmikesfilmroom3111 appreciate the advice
I think you will find the Sabbath rabbit hole quite satisfying. btw...Bill Ward doesn't consider himself a drummer. He is a percussionist,.
That hard driving outro was awesome
I have more black sabbath in my play list than any other band. There is a huge rabbit hole of amazing tracks. All four were musical geniuses.
Thee original!
Loved jammin that tune with the boys. Well done intro ✨️🎶✨️
A satisfying rabbit hole. Iommi, master of the malevolent riff.
Black Sabbath are the progenitors of so called "Heavy Metal". There were other bands getting into this style before them, Cream, Iron Butterfly, Blue Cheer, Led Zeppelin, to name a few. No one had approached the sheer weight and in your face attitude like Sabbath did. They defined a genre, for sure... Enjoy!
Give a listen to Warpigs. It will blow your mind. Very fitting in the current world affairs
The live in Paris 1970 version!! Watch Bill do his thang!
@@mana3735 For a very first listen, do the studio version because the lyrics on the live version mentioned were a work in progress. The song was originally titled Walpurgis with completely different subject matter - the live one is a mix of the 2 sets of lyrics.
Not exactly the Marvel Iron Man. But Marvel did use an instrumental of this song in one of the Iron Man movies, and Tony Stark wore a Black Sabbath T-shirt at least once. He also used the line "I am Iron Man".
Excellent choice for your first Black Sabbath reaction.
Bill Ward is the heaviest jazz drummer of all time. He always does very inventive fills and he is never repetetive. That's one of the reasons why I never get tired of listening to Sabbath. And the rest of the musicians in the band is just solid.
@@megamaniac7402 he has some mad skills those extra fills made that song for me!!
@@MusicForTheSoulReactions Watch War Pigs live in Paris 1970, mate. Bill's drumming is other worldly.
This one song later led to a whole genre of music called Funeral Doom.
A lot of people have missed out not listening to Sabbath, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin because of rumours and headlines. Sabbath's lyrics are worth listening too, social topics madness, war, greed, isolation, humanity, unity. Sabbath has a mixture of so many styles like Jazz, blues, rock and each song changes tempo halfway through a song. So interesting.
This first song I've heard has certainly peaked my interest for sure. Thanks for the comment.
The opening track on their first album...The Wizard. Children of the Grave off Master of Reality.
You'll end up like a prairie dog, popping up here and there and shouting "Alan".
@@tonybaker55 🤣🤣🤣, love the Alan analogy! I've added those to the list!
Since you like the drummer (Bill Ward) check out Black Sabbath War Pigs live in Paris 1970. He puts on an absolute clinic. Planet caravan is something totally different. Keep an ear out for Geezer Butler on bass. He’s great and he wrote most of the lyrics.
I was exposed to Deep Purple in Rock, Black Sabbath's album Paranoid (and Santana's Abraxas) the same afternoon, in the basement of a friends house, +50 years ago. Amazing. But they were not first. I heard "The crazy world of Arthur Brown" and the song "Fire" in the radio (but you should check the video = TV version) in the Summer 1968(!). Pre-metal! Maybe also Zappa's "Who are the brain police" (1966) should be included! (and Geezer Butler, bass in Sabbath listened to Zappa). Alice Cooper must have started after Brown but before Sabbath. Led Zeppelin's debut was Jan 1969. Sabbath's first album (before Paranoid) was released Feb 1970.
But you can always continue. One of the inspirations to their first song was Holst's "The planets" composed during world war I.
Liked your reaction. I suggest starting at the beginning with the song Black Sabbath from their album Black Sabbath. All their songs are like a little musical journey. They put a lot into their music, if you noticed it's not really heavy metal, it's just hard rock. I'm glad to know you enjoyed it and hope you do more, Thanks.
Black Sabbath 1968-eternity🤘
We need more sabbath asap haha
Killer Drums!!
I very much enjoyed your into and appreciate your willingness to explore music you might not necessarily be attracted to. This song’s hook is addictive yet the discordant (I’m sure there’s a proper word for it like achromatic) vocals, and later guitar, create a certain tension throughout the song. Some chronic might enhance your experience 😊✨🎸🍺
@@joeb4142 appreciate the comment bud, always interesting to explore music that otherwise I would have overlooked without doing this channel. Thanks for coming along and offering your opinions
Mother always told you not to spit in the fan, But the very first vocal on this song was Ozzy singing through a table fan into a microphone. Bonham gets all the glory, because LZ, But Bill Ward is everything that, plus an extra slice of bread! I'm not discounting Bonham. Ward was a personal friend of his. I'm sure they considered each other equally, No doubt...
@@leddygee1896 ah, that's interesting about the fan! I can see it now you've mentioned it! Yeah those drumming skills were ace. I bet given they were friends they would push each other to try to be better!
Realize that the lead guitarist Tony Iommi has no fingertips,. He lost them in an accident and plays with fake prosthetic ones he made... To be able to play he filed down the frets on the guitar and used banjo strings... He said he also used to boil the strings.. later as equipment developed further he was able to get thin strings that he could play...
Sabbath Bloody Sabbath / Sweat Leaf / The Wizard. John Bonham #1 Neal Peart #2 Bill Ward #3 Danny Carrey #4 Stephen Perkins #5
Very good riff. I agree with you, I am not very drawn to BSbth and I don't really like Ozzy Osbourne at all, not even his voice (in this song at least), but other than that, they are a very good and influential band.
Ted Nugent.
Stranglehold.
One of the greatest rock and roll guitar performances. There is singing. There is much passion.
There is the witnessing of an epic rock and roll song.
@@bugvswindshield appreciate the suggestion! Added to the list
Black Sabbath recommendations... Uhhh...
The whole first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth, albums... Lol
But seriously you should probably do War Pigs next
Watch War Pigs live in Paris 1970 🔥🔥🔥
Killer Reaction....Killer Video....Hey Bro.....Check Out "Kingdom Come - Get It On"
I'm taking a chance on this with you. I'm quite green on Black Sabbath. They have never been for me.
Funnily enough my first thought is they remind me of The Move with Roy Wood, the band from which ELO was born out of.
ELO got a rather heavy disco rock song from 1979 that many seem to like named Don't Bring Me Down, and you would probably like that song, but maybe you're already familiar with it.
I grew up with the ELO Time album from 1981, and they changed their sound very much with it as they left the 70's and embraced the 80's. Actually the first tracks off the time album are quite heavy too. But not that heavy either. Heavy for a pop band maybe.
This Iron Man song also reminds me a bit of early Queen which also were quite heavy. For example the whole album Sheer Heart Attack by Queen as well as their first album.
Actually I was expecting something heavier with Black Sabbath. But his voice reminded me of Roy Wood. I did not like it though. But I did not dislike it as much as I thought I would either. I'm not really too keen on heavy music. But I always like to test my limits too and be open to expand some horizon.
There are heavy songs that I like very much. For example 21st century schizoid man by King Crimson, The Return of the giant Hogweed by Genesis, The Gates of Delirium by Yes. But maybe those are just a piece of cake for heavy metal fans. I did once try out a metal band named Sepultura and remember I found it a bit interesting, but it's just way way too heavy for me.
I like the song Shadow Of The Moon by Blackmore's Night. He used to be heavy with his band Deep Purple but his wife made him softer. And I like that. Fans of Deep Purple may not.
Actually that song Iron Man also reminds me of King Crimson.
@@kjellmand7103 hey, thank you for your comment and thoughts. Glad you were willing to attempt something new along with me. There are certain ELO songs I am familiar with given my dad is a big fan, he took me along to seem them live a few years back actually which was cool. I did a reaction to that king Crimson track which I did find particularly interesting, unfortunately they had it immediately blocked so no joy there and will not be revisiting them as a result. I hope to continue to push myself with these bands and learn my boundaries of what I like as I go as you have clearly done too 🙂
So cool that he is a big fan of ELO. I love all their albums from 1975 to 1986. And a few songs of their early 70's.
My top 5 favorite bands are Wings, Genesis, ELO, Bee Gees & Yes.
It seems like King Crimson don't want to get any more fans. They seem to be afraid of exposure.
I have discovered a lot of music I was not aware of thanks to regular people online who are including varous music in their videos. And I have bought a lot of CD's and LP's online because of it.
I even discovered a band from my own country thanks to a person on the other side of the planet reacting to it. It was the album Nattfiolen by the band Jordsjø, which I had never heard of before. It was progressive rock from 2019. And I listen to it regularly. It is actually the only album from this century that I listen regularly to. Most of the times when I discover some modern music that I like, I get tired of it after a while.
@@kjellmand7103 that's amazing, I'm glad you've still been able to discover some great new music. Yeah it's a shame about King Crimson, they've certainly lost a potential fan in me. I'll have to check out that band you mention, I too have never heard of them, but I'm growing more confident to try new things! Thanks again for your comments
Most of the music I've discovered is Japanese city pop. They sound like western music. And I had no idea such music existed.
I've also found a song from 2015 called L'Impératrice Agitations Tropicales that I'm not getting tired of, but I found that by using the Shazam app on my phone when they were playing it in a store in town.
It has happened that I've heard nice songs in town that I did not know what was and haven't heard again. But my nephew showed me a free app that I could download on my phone and I just open that app and the phone listens to whatever is being played and then the name of the song comes on the screen.
There is one song by the Japanese artist Makoto Matsushita called Lazy Night from 1981 that sounds very similar to the song Glamour Profession by Steely Dan. But I like the Japanese best.
Haruomi Hosono is a very famous Japanese artist. I like his song Tokyo Rush from 1978 very much. But he is mostly famous for his electronic music. But I prefer his pop songs.
I think the song Koisuru Kalen by Eiichi Ohtaki is a very sweet song. Actually there's lots of sweet Japanese songs that I've discovered that I like. But if you want something more cool and fancy then Haruomi Hosono is a better choice ha ha.
Altough Hosono and Ohtaki did play in a band together at first. Hosono has played with everyone it seems. I have no idea what they are singing. I like so many songs from all over the world. If it sounds nice then that's good enough for me ha ha.
😁
@@kjellmand7103 I'm glad you've discovered some new music that otherwise would have been lost to you were it not for these great App's. I think I'll have to watch a video version of any Japanese band I review given I presume I'm going to need subtitles, just an added challenge 🤣
