Hip Hop Fan's First Listen To Metal - War Pigs by Black Sabbath (Reaction)

[@kurtboyer299]

He nails it where 100 other reactions have whiffed. The coda at 15:10 is among the most imagistic sections of music ever played. You can feel the sky falling in it.

[@SyedRewinds]

Can totally see the imagery when looking back at the section now! Blood red sky caving in. Amazing comment Kurt

[@Kim-hc5si]

Word.

[@NoNameForThisGuy]

That’s where I always pictures a large fissure in the ground opening up and the inhabitants of hell emerging for some earthen fun. The video game Doom, basically

[@parandersson6541]

exactly!

[@pathare3031]

It's a protest song.

[@darrenp5053]

This song was made around 1970 and its just as relevant today in 2022, on top of being such a great song and the beginnings of heavy metal

[@elimccrae5349]

During the Vietnam conflict

[@MrDiddyDee]

@@elimccrae5349 The original song tile was 'Walpurgis' which is a witches sabbath, Geezer Butler was not being that overly political about any specific war, it was just war in general being an ultimate evil. He was concerned though that Britain could get dragged into Vietnam, even though compulsory army service had been abolished the decade previous to this track's release.

[@ulfborgesson]

I would like to dedicate this to Vladimir Putin.

[@lovice]

@@ulfborgesson Vietnam War was between the north communists and the south capitalists while the US got involved by supporting the south... So, if we're dedicate this song to the current situation, since the war is between Russia and Ukraine while the US led NATO got involved by supporting one side (Ukraine)... shouldn't it be dedicated to the US led NATO rather than Putin?

[@sca88]

The Paris 1970 live video of this song is an absolute must. I can't emphasize it enough.

Yes! I can't believe only 29 likes for this comment in 8 months! Should be 100 easy.

[@zoniekat]

Hate it. It takes the focus off the music. So distracting to a music review. Reactors get all caught up in the visuals, which granted, are impressive.

[@dlwseattle]

I've listened to this song for over 45 years and this guy broke it down better than I ever have

[@SyedRewinds]

Thanks for the love Darryl, have a great day mate!

[@jameshuston9589]

I can tell, Syed. I know you preview your reactions. I'm 60 yrs old. I grew up on this and have heard it countless times. I know it.

[@Hollylivengood]

Well...Ozzy. I saw an interview with Ozzy Osbourne, and you know he was born at the tail end of WWII. And he was doing the interview while they walked through his old neighborhood, and he pointed out where the different bomb craters were, where the kids used to play in the bomb craters and the broken buildings. So of course we all make jokes about the Prince of Darkness and how crazy Ozzy was, but he, and probably his whole generation in England had a front row view of the consequences of war. He wrote some sensitive music for a guy who lived through literal hell. You should listen to If I Close My Eyes Forever, or No More Tears, or Dreamer. Politicians and religions pretend war is a noble thing, but every time it leaves craters for little kids to play in. It would be great if history would stop repeating itself.

[@SyedRewinds]

great background info for the track, I'm sure those experiences as a kid shaped his worldview and artistic output. Great comment!

[@ronbock8291]

@@SyedRewinds highly recommended is John Milius’s amazing film about this period from a child’s perspective, Hope and Glory.

[@cuebj]

Not just their childhoods among bomb craters. Song came out of them playing for GIs on holding bases in England on way back from tour of Vietnam to home in US. Thousands of badly educated poor men same age as Black Sabbath group members and utterly traumatized by their experiences. The whole British invasion of US music must have been shaped by being born and infancy among falling bombs or playing in bomb sites after war. I missed that but ought to talk to folk a bit older than me

[@dougca7086]

Born at the tail end of World War II he's called a baby boomer as I am and we're dying off quick we are the Vietnam veterans to put it in perspective

[@Hollylivengood]

@@dougca7086 There's a British reporter doing an interview with him, that's on KZbin. They are walking through his old neighborhood, and he talks about where the bomb craters were that the kids played hide 'n seek in. Just hearing that one, and the number of songs where he asks people to think of the world we are giving to our children, actually brought me to tears. I notice, like some others have mentioned, that that whole generation of Brit artists who lived in a war zone, had a similar message.

[@TROUSDALE1313]

You should see the live version “War Pigs Live 1970 in Paris” …the drummer is F-ing 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😬😬🔥🔥🔥

[@TROUSDALE1313]

I’d rather watch you react to that..to actually see them visually kicking ass and Ozzy nearly possessed singing..

[@SyedRewinds]

Its on the list now, thanks.

[@duncansolloway2497]

that is such a killer live performance-so good

[@elimccrae5349]

When you see how much the drummer gets out of the tiny kit he's playing on (at that time...) you'll be very amazed!

[@dragonflyparade8143]

Bill Ward on those drums! You have to see him to believe him.

[@me109aa]

"Into the Void" will change your life, not kidding. Most don't realize how groovy metal can be.

[@SyedRewinds]

Many ppl have asked me to check this one out, its up next for when I cover Sabbath again. Thanks mate!

[@hellooutsiders6865]

Sabbath was highly influenced by jazz, classical, rock and roll...and post war England... and it shows.

[@dylandenney3980]

For me the best metal always has groove. Funk and jazz are always welcome in heavy music as far as I'm concerned

[@davidfredrickson4107]

Sabbath is a 4 piece band. Base, guitar, drums, & Ozzie. Tommy Iommi is just that damned good.

[@cjschiwal8229]

I was going to point that out too lol

[@2510LuL]

But the album is actually multitracked at parts so hes not wrong

[@lindab.8386]

True, the guitars are all played by Tony Iommi, but some parts have two guitar tracks nonetheless.

[@jonathanlocke6404]

Iommi commonly overdubbed at least two, if not more, tracks...Doesn't take anything away from his skill...

[@68Warpigs]

Who?!

[@markherron3897]

Madman is a perfect description. When he went solo, one of his album titles was Diary of a Madman.

[@davidterhune8277]

I already liked this song, your reaction made me appreciate it even more. Anyone that complains you stop to comment on the song clearly doesn't understand the "reaction video" concept. Ignore them. You want great storytelling with the perfect music to accent the lyrics? Try the song "Black Sabbath" from Black Sabbath's first album, "Black Sabbath"

[@SyedRewinds]

Yeah that's always odd to me, why not just go listen to the actual track if you don't like pauses lol. Thanks for the comment Dave and I've added your suggestion to the list

[@Mike-kv5pl]

Another great Black Sabbath song to check out is INTO THE VOID.

[@KelticKabukiGirl]

Under the Sun is even heavier!

[@thrashersheaf7440]

Man you are one of the few reactors who turn metal UP.... thats the way Metal should be .. LOUD!.... thats where the power comes from. Enjoy.

[@TribulationGuild]

Ozzy is such an interesting character. He's literally everything that most hard rock or heavy metal singers weren't at the time. He wasn't an amazing vocalist, he didn't have any training, he couldn't really hit a note at all, and he couldn't belt out long or high notes or screams like the big superstars. But that is exactly why he was so captivating, because when he sings it's warbling, it's off-key, it's whiny, and it sounds like this manic or deranged voice that gives such an honesty to all of his songs. And he really leaned into that in his solo work, focusing on themes of madness and torment and people who couldn't cope with the world. He's an icon not because he's some virtuoso with a monster voice like Bruce Dickenson or Ronny James Dio, but because even without that he's still honest and a consummate showman and he put everything he had into it.

[@nancysmith38]

Just think- this song is about 50 years old. It was so new and wonderful back in the 7o’s.

[@B0110-x3d]

NIB, Sweet Leaf, Paranoid, Into the void, Hand of Doom, Heaven and Hell etc. All excellent songs by sabbath you need to check out!

I vote for album reviews of their first 6 albums with the original band, that is their classic period and amongst the best music ever made, in any genre in the post WWII era. Enjoy!

Released in 1970 as a protest song against the Vietnam war but applies to all conflicts today. Ukraine

Yes❗Ukraine ❗

[@Slimenator]

It was originally a song that was written about witches & mythology, but was switched to a protest song, which was an apt change. That is a bit of trivia most do not know

[@mojobag01]

Tony Iommi (guitar) does a lot of double tracking and close soloing. He got rather good at it :)

[@Frank-pe9pk]

Back in the 70’s, when I listened to Black Sabbath so did my neighbors. My parents really let me know.😂 You’re right.. this was an anti war song, Vietnam. You need to watch the video, it’s very telling. You mentioned Ozzy being a madman. Ha ha…Story of a madman.😵‍💫

[@debramcmillan1634]

Lovely reactions . You may stop the music to comment , but That's fine because your timing is spot on . Been listening to this song for over forty years now and my initial reaction around 1972 was just as you said, holy f***ing s**t !!! In a word , perfect .

[@BridewellSeniorTube]

I love the jazzy style of bass guitar during that period of rock. The way it goes on its own little path....

[@dmCurator]

The irony is that the band was shunned for being dark and satanic because of their imagery but in reality they were issuing a prophetic warning about evil and its influence on humanity. So dialed in.

[@B0110-x3d]

Gotta keep doing Black Sabbath dude. They're so good. Cant wait for more!

[@lindab.8386]

I've listened to this song thousands of times, and I absolutely love your reaction video. Thank you.

[@kencreten7308]

Great reaction, thank you. This is a straight ahead song about the horrors of war, and it's causes. There's no, hidden meanings or tricks.

[@TomahawkYT]

One of the best Anti-War songs ever.

[@LetItBeSummer-1]

The music depicts the darkness rage destruction madness that comes from war. The guitar at the end sounds like it’s crying, a reaction to the madness & desperate sadness of war. Such an amazing song that’s relevant today.

[@MrDiddyDee]

Respect to you Syed to have really got this. SO glad you give the music and lyrics your full attention, just the way it was intended to be experienced. Way too many reaction channels get totally distracted by videos, half of the videos having very little to do with or add anything at all to the songs. Particularly anything from the 1960's and 70's. In those eras promo videos were not really even a common thing, and such a lot of KZbin clips may be slick but they're often fan made and just stamp the director's own personal narrative onto a song. I'd rather hear the reactors thoughts without them being swayed by any visuals. That air raid siren never fails to give me chills every single time. One of your comments had me laughing, yup, it's not just the delivery of this song, Ozzy is a notorious crazy but loveable character, and his fans have always adored him for it. With the (mostly) self- inflicted ways he has battered his body it's a total miracle to himself and the medical world that he is still with us. This song is five decades old and still so tragically relevant to what's happening now.

[@bernardsalvatore1929]

THE TRUE TESTAMENT TO THE GREATNESS OF A BAND IF HOW TIMELESS THEIR MUSIC IS, AND SABBATH, ESPECIALLY THIS SONG, IS TRULY TIMELESS!!! GREAT INTERPRETATION OF THE SONG'S MEANING! AS FAR AS THE TWO GUITAR SOUND, THAT WAS DONE IN STUDIO, TONY IOMMI PLAYS BOTH!! I LIKE YOUR COMMENT ABOUT DUELING GUITARS!!!

[@OhioCruffler]

You have to listen to "Hand of Doom" from the same album. The imagery and music work so well. What this song is to war, it is to hard drug abuse.

[@warpdriveby]

It was the first song I learned on the bass, and Geezer was one reason I started the bass to begin with.

[@jtraybourn1160]

ABSOLUTELY. !!

[@z-9693]

W0rd!

[@ulfborgesson]

I can't listen to Hand of doom or Shine on you crazy diamond anymore. My daughter is a hard core drug abuser.

[@warpdriveby]

@@ulfborgesson I'm incredibly sorry to hear that she's struggling with addiction, I've been a councilor for 10 years, and as you might guess once battled addiction from the inside myself. The two things I always try to get both patients and their families to internalize is that the highest success rate, currently, is with the slow taper method. The second thing, is how to understand or view the disease, and that is: addiction is a brain disorder where the part of the brain that manages our survival instincts and urges becomes confused and identifies a chemical as necessary for life to continue. Generally, the brain, inserts it into the priorities between breathing and staying hydrated. During both acute and post-acute withdrawal, the brain is convinced that without the chemical(s) in question it will die, and that this is immediate. If you're ever had your airways closed off against your will, you will have experienced this yourself. It is certainly also true that we, as chemically dependent people, have made very poor choices at times, and that they led us to unacceptable behaviors. Deceit, theft, betrayal, continued lying, are all motivated by the imminent death our brains mistakenly perceived. The brain, like the heart or liver can experience dysfunctions. Because the brain is comple beyond any other thing humans have ever tried to study, it still appears mysterious, even to those with decades of experience and education. I never suggest tolerating or enabling continued drug abuse. However, using therapeutic medicines to create a slow and safe path back out of addictions is the method that (so far) has the highest percentage of success. I wish I knew of more programs, but one that is a model is Westgrove Clinic in Milwaukee, WI. I am not affiliated with them, but can reccomend them. They will know of a program in your area.

Guitarist Tony Lommi (guitarist) 17 years old and working his last shift at a sheet metal factory when he lost two fingertips in a gruesome crush injury accident. He eventually fashioned finger prosthetics out of leather, which very much contributes to his edgy and instantly recognizable "two guitar" sound. Great reaction!

Tony Iommi is the only guitar player. Geezer Butler on bass..check out his GZR album. Bill Ward on drums. Ozzy vocals of course

It’s amazing how you described ozzys voice as sounding like a madman but that’s actually how he portrayed himself and was known as a madman and “the prince of darkness”

Fun fact about the guitarist Tony Iommi is that when he was 17 he lost the tips to his middle and ring fingers on his fretting hand in an industrial accident on his last day at work before becoming a full time band member in the birds and the bees. This is why black Sabbath had that heavier sound early on was because he tuned his guitar down 3 semitones to make it easier to play

[@SyedRewinds]

no way! Awesome info man, you might make the next video with this one

[@elimccrae5349]

@@SyedRewinds He only tuned down one semitone for the first two albums, using thin banjo strings. He uses a combo amp, and was plugged into the Bass socket, instead of the Guitar socket. On their third album on, Tony tuned down to three semitones, this is why you'll be amazed with the song "Into the Void"! It's awesome.

Since you started at the beginning, you should explore Metal in a linear way. Definitely check out the more accessible stuff first, circle back on the niche and extreme if it’s too jarring at first. Metal has shockingly fantastic lyrics and obviously great musicians Black Sabbath & Ozzy solo (60s-70s), Metallica (80s-90s), Pantera (90s), Rage Against The Machine (90s), System of a Down (00s) are all guaranteed likes Edit: just finished the conclusion. You have a great intuitive sense for metal. It’s a very mendable medium for expressive and emotional outlets.

I'll take this on board and go chronologically if I can at all. Thanks Dan

[@johncrawford4302]

Hand of Doom By Black Sabbath. It is about being in Vietnam War and turning to drugs as your relief mostly heroin. They wrote this song because where they lived in England where these rehabs for U.S. soldiers to dry out before going back to the U.S.A. after the war. Something most people didnt know especially in the U.S.A. The music and lyrics will blow you away

[@johnnyzip9847]

This song depicts the war like attitude from government and the emotional havoc it creates for society, individuals, families, love ones who leave for war and loves ones who wait for their soldiers return or not.. WW2 was form 1939 to 1945 Members of Black Sabbath( born 1948-49) are from Birmingham England a city known for its blue collar workers smoke stack industrial steel and manufacturing.. The parents/family of the members witnessed WW2 and the destruction it imposed on England(possibly family members were killed in WW2) .. This message of war was most likely echoed to them as children on what the horrors of war are like that just occurred few years before they were born.. That siren you hear in the beginning of the song( is a real siren sound) was used to sound off to warn the local town/villagers that war attack was emanant, a scary sound to hear during that time with most wondering where to go and hide... A very pivotal song

You've nailed Ozzy's voice, lol. He made his career on being a 'madman' type of public persona, especially during his solo career post-Sabbath. HIs vocal strengths, IMO, are his ability to sell horror and anxiety; he's arguably the best ever at that.

[@davidkulmaczewski4911]

Both Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne have a lot of songs that are "anti-bad", but they have the reputation of being "anti-good". They are portrayed as evil and satanic, but have songs that are anti-war, anti-drugs, anti-alcohol, anti-violence. There was a big controversy in the 1980s about an Ozzy song titled "Suicide Solution"; people raged about it thinking it was pro-suicide, i.e., 'suicide is the solution'. In fact, it was anti-alcohol.... 'solution' defined as it is used in chemistry.... alcohol is a liquid that can kill you. This was obvious in the lyrics, but nobody bothered to listen to or read them.

[@elky454]

The guitarist, Tony Iommi, almost gave up the guitar and left the group, that he had started. As a young man he was involved in a metal shop machine accident where he lost the tips of two fingers. He was inspired by guitarist Django Reinhardt, whom he learned was missing all, but two fingers, on one hand and yet still was able play fabulously. He went back to work learning to play basically from scratch. He designed prosthetics to replace the missing parts, of his fingers; and the result, as you can say, is history.🎸🙀

I notice you're a new channel, and since you asked for tips in what metal to react to, I'd like to express that ALL the other reaction channels have overlooked the greatest thrash metal trio in history (IMHO), namely Coroner. Such musicianship as to be able to play anything they want, yet choosing to bless us with countless metal gems. I recommend anything from "No More Color", " Mental Vortex" or "Grin" for a beginner. You'd be the first channel to do so. Seize the day! Another of my favorite overlooked is Immortal - "Sons of Northern Darkness". I like your style. Very smart. Cheers.
