🎵 Black Sabbath - Supernaut REACTION

[@wsn0009]

70's Sabbath is absolute gold. ❤️ this one! Also check out 'A National Acrobat' & 'Symptom of the Universe'.

[@bassage13]

Everyone seems to ignore "A National Acrobat." It's one of my favorites, maybe even number 1. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who likes it. Nobody gives it the attention it deserves.

[@reallymysterious4520]

@@bassage13 I actually heard it mentioned on a channel that picked it as a Deep Cut - I believe on Sea of Tranquility

[@bschuler6216]

A National Acrobat!!!! My favorite Sabbath song.

[@chrisd913]

​​@@bassage13 I agree with you 1,000% A national acrobat might be their best song. I also feel the same way about "The thrill of it all" on the Sabatage album. Sabbath gold that never gets talked about.

[@seanhanratty9494]

@@bschuler6216A national Acrobat is the best. That beat and guitar in the middle. Its definitely a bad ass jam.

[@simonroberts33]

Black Sabbath with Ozzy is my favourite band ever. Children of the Grave is an awesome song, Bill Ward tears the drums up in that.

[@briandeadmarsh7538]

Yep, best there ever was.

[@nacimklimounet830]

Did you know about the RacerX version of children of the grave?

[@johnvanhal2450]

Try Children of the Grave by Sandveiss. Excellent cover...

[@nodaysback1]

It's not Black Sabbath w/out Ozzy.. or w/out Ward. Unfortunately, *13* isn't a Sabbath record. All 4 or nothing.

[@johnvanhal2450]

@@nodaysback1 I'm a fan, buying their records since 1971. I was 11 then. It's a matter of taste. Some like the Dio era better, some like Tony Martin. I like them all. And especially the Seventh Star album. Yup, the one with Glenn Hughes singing. Tony just adapts writing to the singer, so to me he is Black Sabbath, more than any other.

[@javalily]

Bill Ward kills it in this.

[@ksfmiller]

As usual

[@rickjohnson2165]

@@wubcow743Vol 4 is one of the best albums, along with Black Sabbath, Paranoid, Master of Reality, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath and Sabotage

[@20sovereign23]

Supernaut is the song that turned me into Sabbath, that riff is just gigantic and the groove just pulls you along with it. Nobody swings like Sabbath, it's what their immitators don't get, the groove from Geezer and Bill is what sets them apart

[@JohnSmith-oe4ci]

everyone mentions the riffs but not the groove

[@mavjimbo]

Ozzie takes it to another level

[@ricardovargas4546]

This song is like something from another planet! Incredible!

[@glennthompson1173]

The best heavy metal band of all time by far. There isn't anybody that comes close.

[@brettkenschaft4239]

No argument over them being the best!! But I put Priest pretty high up there, too. Between Halford's vocal range and the twin axe attack of Tipton and Downing they took metal in a new direction. But Sabbath is still tops!!

[@robertlavorna2968]

right on....listening since 69....still a huge fan...all 4 of them the best at what they do..plain and simple!!!

[@mavjimbo]

Saw them live in 1970, blew me away

[@YedMan01]

@Glen I agree the Inventors of heavy metal are the best of all time

[@wm.g6664]

Purple was better live, Sabbath wrote better songs.

[@JimmyRJump]

Fifty years after the facts, I still remain amazed at how heavy this was compared to other music from those days.

[@robertlavorna2968]

me too....heavy and talented!!

[@allenjohnstone9945]

Uriah heep would like a word about that.

[@TheOneAndOnlyFloridaMan]

Snowblind is another awesome song of theirs you guys could check out.

[@Gekokujo76]

Might be my favorite Sabbath song and System of a Down does a very respectable cover of Snowblind as well (for one of those cover streams).

[@saturnsabyss]

2:51 lmfao she always has a unique way of interpreting songs

[@stawmtroopa1968]

She is so stunningly beautiful it's RIDICULOUS. I absolutely LOVE her smile. She always looks happy, and eager to enjoy herself and that is a fantastic quality to have especially in this day and age where everyones so angry all the time. Love watching the reactions to some of my favorite songs from the best bands ever.

[@justinatest9456]

Riff kings? That's the understatemant of the century. They literally created heavy metal which is all about the riffs, and then they proceeded to perfect it by their second album. No artist deserves the title of King like Sabbath deserves the title Riff Kings.

[@avestuart]

"Symptom of the Universe" and "Tomorrow's Dream" are two of my Sabbath favorites.

[@bschuler6216]

The Screaming Trees do a good, faithful cover of Tomorrow's Dream.

[@stoneysopranoyukon9398]

James Hetfield once said when it came to cool riffs Toni Iommi already wrote them all. ✌❤🇨🇦

[@fuckamericanidiot]

Hetfield made the breakdown riff in Through the Never. But yes mostly true xd

[@IncendiaDivinus]

100% in agreement --- All hail the riff Maister !!!

[@rickdaniels1789]

"Under the Sun" on this album has one of the heaviest riffs in history. Or future.

[@Markhypnosis1]

There are so many Sabbath tracks worthy of reaction, mainly their early stuff. But A couple very early ones that you wouldn't believe are the same band are "Changes", which is a beautiful balad. And "Looking For Today", which has a very 60s flowery hippy melodic feel while still being fairly heavy. Both absolutely fantastic songs.

[@chrislegner4816]

Heavy metal perfection. As good as it gets even at a half century old.

[@robertlavorna2968]

i agree, many heavy metal bands that are just noise....they are all the best at what they did

[@bobbyg7102]

SYMPTOM OF THE UNIVERSE and THE WRIT!

[@ozzynmyrtle]

love this song. have to say Ministry / 1000 Homo Dj's rocks it a little harder. yall should check it out. Al Jourgensen is a genius... Practically every one of the top 40 records being played on every radio station in The United States is a communication to the children to take a trip, to cop out, to Groove. The psychedelic jackets on the record albums have their own hidden symbols And messages as well as the lyrics to all the top rock songs and they all sing the Same refrain: It's fun to take a trip, put acid in your veins

[@DonSalotti]

Agreed, I first heard the Trent Reznor / 1000 Homo Dj's version while deep-diving NIN, and it got me looking at Ministry too. Hits even harder than Sabbath's

[@svperstar]

it is so good

[@bschuler6216]

I knew someone would get around to mentioning this before me. 1000 Homo DJ's cover of Supernaut is one of those few covers that actually surpasses the original. Great song. Also off of Volume 4 is the song Tomorrow's Dreams, which is a really good deeper cut, and one that the Screaming Trees cover very faithfully.

[@Zilla-1]

I've been trying for a while to get them to react to ministry, butthole surfers and revolting cocks but no luck yet.

[@mtravis4]

Supernaut has been one of my fav Black Sabbath songs for years. Lex, I love the way you rock and get into it! Too cute!

[@Reddog7937]

You must hear Shock Wave or Johnny Blade from Black Sabbath Never say die Album. Very underrated!!!

[@jtighe7090]

They were all so shocked about it that it left a lasting impression, they tagged that little piece onto Sabotage..

Lex is right, that "squeak" is the sound of fingers sliding across the strings, and sometimes the picking, and it's just so cool

[@fenderchamp8241]

Yes, also called sleeve noise. J Walsh was good at that.

[@chuckpapermaker]

Lex, I get your analogy of the teeth and the sound Tony is making on guitar. When he was young he cut the tips off of two of his fingers working in a sheet metal shop. When his nubs healed it hurt too much for him to play guitar. His solution was to melt down pieces of plastic and mold them to fit his finger tips, and then he glued pieces of leather onto the plastic. Even with this he still felt some pain, so he lightened his touch on the strings. The sound you are describing is Tony sliding his fingers on the fretboard. The nasty sound of the riffs is his touch and the leather. An industrial accident was partially responsible for the birth of heavy metal!!

[@mayqueenslithers4078]

One of my absolute favorites by them.

[@craigharrison5406]

[@bapc3billneeley]

My favorite Sabbath tune!!!

[@YedMan01]

Supernaut and Snowblind are definitely my two favorite songs from this album, notice when guitarist Tony Iommi goes into his lead on this song, there also is a rhythm guitar playing. Black Sabbath only has one guitar player and one bass player in order for us to hear 2 guitars, Tony plays both parts, but just like I said about that one part in Pat Benatar’s song heartbreaker where we hear 2 Pat Benatar voices the recording method to do that is called double tracking, so one individual like Tony Iommi on guitar,, or Pat Benatar’s vocals actually can clone them selves so to speak, in reality they perform both parts at separate recording times. I have a very rare Jimi Hendrix cd, called historic Hendrix, where I believe Jimi plays all the instruments guitar ,bass and drums everything and he records it one track at a time, or maybe 2 vocals and guitar recorded at the same time , next, I believe he recorded the bass guitar and lastly the drums!! in essence he was for those songs a one man band🎸🎸However, for some of that CD ,come to think of it he did have a few guest musicians join him I believe for some songs, vocals, and drums!! However, I’m positive there are other songs on that CD that’s just Jimi Hendrix

Funny that Lex would mention "squeaky teeth" at the end. (For those who know the relation between coke and squeaky teeth... yeah, you know who you are.)The band and their entourage were holed up in a rented mansion in Beverly Hills whiffing copious amounts of cocaine during the writing/recording of this album. Look at the liner notes on the back of the album, Vol.IV. They thank the great COKE-Cola company of Los Angeles.
