You cant invent the pentatonic scale, only use it. Iommi is god tier but in your first year of trying to learn guitar you cpuld accidently play one of their riffs just noodling around, its not taking anything away from the music to be honest and say hitting 5 6 7 on the A string isnt trademarkable.

[@metalganjaguy]

My one and only interaction with Matt Pike, which occurred at a High On Fire show at a small venue called Uncle Pleasants, in Louisville, Kentucky. I was taking a piss, and he used the urinal next to me: MP: "What's up man?" Me: "Oh Matt! What's up man?" MP: "Not much, I think I'm going to get the whiskey shits".
