Sabbath Bloody Sabbath - Black Sabbath | College Students' FIRST TIME REACTION!

Once we hit that goal we’ll get studio time and do a cover for a track of your guys’ choosing! Was time for some more Sabbath, always awesome to get into more of their tracks!! Hope you guys are doing awesome, cheers to ya! 🤟🏻🔥

This band is so much more powerful with Dio. Osborne's just a riff singer with a lot of balls.

[@gayleshatzkes8184]

Andy & Alex Hey Guys, enjoyed. Have you thought about giving YES another try. Roundabout is real played out and Closer to the Edge more obscure. How about...I’ve seen all Good People, Long Distance Runaround, Yours is no disgrace, And You and I. These are all lost in the sauce songs and nothing you have to work at like closer to the edge

[@theelectriceye939]

One of the heaviest bridges EVER. And I think Ozzy's trembling high vocals during this part, somehow compliment the song.

[@highcurrent1125]

Somehow?? ....thats one of the creepiest, scariest, metal vocals you'll ever hear!! Classic Ozzy, Classic Sabbath!!

[@guitarkis4969]

Tony and band wrote the heaviest riffs ever. I don't give a shit about today's metal riffs, this stuff was and still is the best metal.

[@CatharticusX]

Jesus, dude, I remember the first time I heard this song when I was a kid. It was like discovering witchcraft. It literally changed my life. Without a doubt, this is my favorite metal song of all time. Ozzy’s vocal breakup is PERFECT for the song.

[@CatharticusX]

guitarkis49 TESTIFY!!! I’m trying to find a simple way to explain it to people. It’s like modern rock has all kinds of compression and processed distortion, effects... They spend tens of thousands of dollars to get that perfect metal sound. Whereas, Tony and Geezer simply walked into the room, plugged in their guitars, turned on their amps and blew up disco.

[@ronnelson7828]

It has that super heavy part made even heavier because of the jazzy sounding bit in the chorus.

[@shelleylucus9385]

Just as you are thinking this is song is kick-ass, it shifts into something even more kick-ass. Sabbath has a way of repeatedly doing that.

[@j.j.4150]

Exactly. They outflex themselves in the same song all the time haha.

[@KJMog]

That is one of my favorite things about this song. It rocks out and you love it, then they drop the hammer. I have the image of looking down a darkened staircase, suddenly a big boot slams your spine and you are kicked into the basement.

[@jonathanlocke6404]

I think it is key to their sound. The shift here is probably my favorite change like that in any song I can think of...

[@iancunningham5576]

Absolutely.

[@CatharticusX]

Absolutely. When I was a kid I wasn’t musically-mature enough to understand what was happening, I just knew that it sounded killer. The more I studied and played music, the more I appreciate how monolithic Ward and Butler really are in the foundation of metal.

[@DENVEROUTDOORMAN]

Never heard oof those losers in Black Loosers

[@TothLaszlo77]

Yeah but in my view, in Black Sabbath specifically, the bass & guitar seem to form a duo, Bill is a fucking phenom on the drums, really being like a third of the overall songs, & Ozzy is usually singing the guitar/bass riffs, idk what this type of singing is called, kinda the reverse with Dio onwards.

I'm an old punk and speed metal guy, and until I was in my 30s, I never really gave Sabbath much attention. I have no clue why, but our musical tastes certainly change as we age. I think these guys are incredible and Bulter and Ward provide one of the best bottom ends in music period. Killer stuff.

Sabbath Bloody Sabbath is for sure their most accomplished album. If you read the context around how this album was created, and what their situation was like at the time of this recording, it is unbelievable how they made this album!

[@stantonvalberg9814]

To think Iommi thought he was done with making music, because of severe writer's block, when work sessions for the album started.

[@jlawishere6685]

Always loved their transitions from super ridiculously heavy to laid back, thoughtful and quite jazzy. Tony Iommi's treble booster making his guitar tone. Thick

[@mojoesixpack]

Before Black Sabbath: No heavy metal. Since Black Sabbath: Everybody playing catch-up.

[@sleepy_druid1001]

The album Sea Chanties by High Tide is pretty fucking heavy and it was released a couple months before Black Sabbath.

[@VIDSTORAGE]

1 song by Iron Butterfly/ In Gadda Da Vida was the closest song to a blue print for heavy metal before any one else ,,even more so than Blue Cheer/ Summertime Blues

[@romanf.9600]

@@VIDSTORAGE I think what seperates sabbath from the other bands and their heavy songs is that they had the heavy riffs, bass, drums and haunting vocals, but more importantly they had a lot of songs referring to satan whether it be telling a story or having a genuine dark scary theme to an entire album. I mean Iommi and geezer brought downtuning into the spotlight in modern music. The songs you listed are definitely proto-metal but sabbath changed the game

[@samkeepintherockalive]

The first time that the term heavy metal was used to label a band, was done by a Rolling Stone magazine writter to describe the sound of Sir Lord Baltimore. Super killer band!!

[@VIDSTORAGE]

@@romanf.9600 In Gadda Da Vida had all that other than the satninc themes but the distortion and the gloom and doom sound with the echo chamber effect just gave it that sound that Black Sabbth took off and ran with but Iron Butterfly never progressed on that sound.. .....kzbin.info/www/bejne/kIW0ooJqeJqUgsk This is the short 45 mono that really brings out that metal vibe that we are trying to describe when it was not called metal..

[@mori1bund]

I completely agree! The "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath" is peak Black Sabbath.

[@jamesfetherston1190]

Yes was recording or rehearsing in the same studio at this time, so any of the synthesizer you hear on this album is courtesy of Rick Wakeman.

[@CatharticusX]

I listened to the album today in my headset while I was doing aerial survey work over the Tetons. I wish I could upload the experience. Spiral Architect and A National Acrobat at 10,000 with mountains and glaciers below. Then my player randomly pulled up “Veteran of the Psychic Wars” from B.O.C., which segued perfectly.

[@grantshenton7079]

James Fetherston - Rick was bored when Yes were honing some tracks , so he went next door got shitfaced with the lads and ending up keys on Sabbracadabra . Ricks son toured with them on the last few tours they did .

You pretty much need oxygen, helium or a kick in the nuts to sing it live. You don’t need drugs or alcohol because of the head rush, but, anybody who tries to sing it just sounds like Brian Johnson trying to do Bon Scott.

I owned Paranoid before I bought this. I wasn't a huge Sabbath fan, but my band played tracks off the Paranoid album, which is why I had it - so I could learn the bass lines. But when this came out, I started to respect the band's musicianship a lot more. For one thing, the transitions in this song were killer - and a challenge to master. I went back and gradually acquired their other albums as a result.

I bought the Black Sabbath debut album when it came out just because of the album cover--I thought, "This has gotta be scary!" And it was. I was blown away at how big the sound a band with one guitar, one bass and one drummer with a singer could be when it was obvious there were no production gimmicks or over-dubbing. This was like nothing that was happening at the time. The closest thing there was, was Deep Purple "Machine Head." That said, I just discovered you guys a couple of days ago. You are playing and reacting to music that I've been listening to for 40, 50, and more years. And now, because of your reactions, opinions, reviews, I am again listening to this music closely and appreciating it so much again. Thank you! It's good to see folks who weren't even around when this music was new, appreciating it and giving it the attention it deserves. And I really respect your opinions. Now, for my suggestions: Yes "Long Distance Runaround" Jethro Tull "To Cry You a Song" Supertramp "School" Pat Travers "Off Beat Ride" Chris Squire "Lucky Seven" Eric Johnson "Cliffs of Dover" Climax Blues Band "Couldn't Get it Right" Steely Dan "Kid Charlemagne" and "Don't Take Me Alive" and Chuck Berry "Maybellene" (the first ever rock-and-roll song) Thanks for considering!!

Sweet "Set Me Free" Way before Judas Priest, Iron Maiden and Motorhead kicked up the tempo.

Hearing this is giving me the 70s feelzzz!!! My next door neighbor was a drummer, he played this for me on 8 track LOL. I was hooked and he became my husband. This whole album is killer!! Randy Rhoads is EPIC!! R.I.P. And if you want to trip out listen to "Laguna Sunrise ", a complete 180 from this song, it shows the range of talent in this band. Thanks guys, loved your reactions, I knew that first transition would getcha!!

I was 4 when this came out and my older sister by 10 years brought it home and put it on when our parents were put one night. Everything changed that night and my whole life has stemmed from that point.

This makes me think you guys would love Bauhaus's "In the Night" and "The Passion of Lovers."

[@jasonsmith666]

Personal fav's of mine are Dark Entries, Terror Couple Kill Colonel and Silent Hedges.

@@jasonsmith666 Oh, hell, yes. And their cover of "Telegram Sam" is just so good. So good.
