The song references Bible prophecy with Judgement day coming, the Great and Terrible Day of The Lord is most certainly coming 7 years after the Rapture of the believers of Jesus Christ and his salvation. The evil men who plot to destroy mankind will NOT be begging mercy for their sins, they will curse the God of Heaven as the bowls of wrath are poured on their heads during the Tribulation time, and Satan will not be laughing as the smoke of his torment rises forever out of the Abyss. This present world is in "sudden death" overtime, the Restrainor , or the Holy Spirit is moments away from taking The Lord's children out and Hell on earth will be unleashed for all who reject the Risin Savior. " Believe in the Lord and you will be saved, you and your household." Acts 16:31
Fucking kick ass tune. It don't get no better than this. Had the good fortune of seeing Sabbath live in concert in 78. A life changing experience. Wish I could go back in time. Anyway, RIP to the "boy wonder" Bill "Burt" Ward. Fucking excellent!!
The ongoing warring countries between Ukraine and Russia just makes this awesome legendary Black Sabbath's "War Pigs" track once again relevant. Cheers! New Delhi
100% agreement! Also Uriah Heep and their song LADY IN BLACK! War is simply a racket!! A few oligarchs earn fortune and brainwashed poor die committing war crimes and atrocities, taking lives of millions innocent victims, ruining the countries!
This really was one of the most amazing debut albums of all time. So many iconic riffs and musicianship. Really nothing like it at the time. Came out of nowhere to blow minds.
This brings me back to my teenage years sitting in my buddy's basement leaning to BLACK SABBATH and drinking beer 🍻 it was a great time to be alive a METALHEAD for ever RIP Johnny i MISS you Bro
Amen brotber , ozzy lives, this is rock and roll and how ozzy sticks it to the man , definitely not satanic, nobody listens to the words , sharon new she saw a winner the first time they met.l9ng live Ozzy Osbourne.....
Jesus Christ is returning and out of all the hate and sin in this world its not hard to get lead as stray .If you havent been saved its a good time to be..is all im saying
This song came out during anti-Vietnam war protests,pro war,fought all those who did not support war,sentiment was different,so they called it satanic,also ozzie acted like satan!
And, like you, I've seen firsthand who is who, if you understand me. My skin crawls when I hear "just like witches at black masses". I'm a massive Sabbath fan, since 1988. They opened my eyes when I was 14, as did Maiden. Our own children will be likely to go through the same, and more lives lost, and War Pigs the underground anthem, once again 🇵🇸
Because the song clearly discribed the suffering of wars,mentioning satan,was an excuse! I first heard this song 1970,during Vietnam war,loved it,I still do!I am sad all fighters in WAR did not!may they rest in peace
Oh Son, 60’s, 70’s & 90’s is the pinnacle of GREAT music. (Notice I skipped the 80’s?)😂 You gotta listen to Iron Maiden, Dio, Zepplin, Iron Butterfly, Doors, The Who, Rolling Stones, UGH!
Interesting Lyrics in the following album "Master of Reality" In "Children of the Grave" and "After Forever" clearly demonstrating that Black Sabbath were Christian, not Satanic. One of the best bands ever. My favourites are "Wheels of Confusion" and "Supernaut" off of Black Sabbath, Volume Four.
This song was written during the middle of the Cold War, so the war being sung about is global and thermonuclear. As Sabbath said in 'Children of the Grave" - ..."must the world live in the shadow of atomic fear?"
Amazing audio quality! 😃🤘😝🤘 Was this a vinyl rip digital remaster? The bass sounds amazing! Not sure if it's the recording quality or the iPhone speakers, bit it sounds PERFECT as the madmen play on words and bring us inch by inch closer to World War 3! You got any Maiden, Rush or motörhead on your channel? 😊
Definitivamente ese sonido de sirena que se escucha antes de que Ozzy cante me estremece. Imagino las bombas de la Luftwaffe cayendo inmisericordes sobre Inglaterra.
THIS SONG INCLUDED IN THEIR SECOND ALBUM "PARANOID", IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND CLEAR EXPRESSION... OF HOW WAR IS A "FOOLISH" THING... TO DO Max66 Italy
Ozzy was just the singer Geezer Butler wrote all the lyrics for everything, Tony Iommi wrote all the music. that's why Ozzy solo sucks to Black Sabbath. 🤘
