This is the ultimate spliff-smoking joint, am I right? Ozzy era Black Sabbath rarely gets that mellow but there are some progressive tracks that have mellow sections. Seriously, Black Sabbath is a whole rabbit hole.
FACTS. A couple years ago I actually smoked the first joint I rolled to this song in the Adirondacks of Upstate New York where there’s literally no light pollution. I lit up and was surprised by a meteor shower, so I immediately put this song on. Good times.
One of the best examples of a band where the expectations basses on media etc are a long way off. Black Sabbath don't get enough credit for being incredible musicians.
Yes , yes, yes!!!!!!! These guys need to check out hand if doom. Planet caravan is a great song but an unusual song for them. The guy that’s a drummer needs to check out Bill Wards skills
It wasn’t a 🛠T⚙️⚙️L🛠 reaction but I watched, much respect to admitting not a Big fan of Black Sabbath🙏 honesty is everything my friends, looking forward to seeing you react to RIGHT IN TWO
Being able to remove your preconceived idea of Black Sabbath was great. This song is a classic and very well written. You can sense it was a nice jam session when they wrote it.
Without Sabbath there would be no metal. Some songs are written for an arena, and some songs are written for headphones This song was the seed that planted “stoner rock” Check out “Cloak of Feathers” by The Sword for a great example of stoner rock
Good morning gentleman. First video I'm watching with a cup of coffee this morning as I know this tune is proppa chilled. Might I recommend hand of doom by black sabbath. About the perils of drug taking and the Vietnam war. Superb tune
Total shock. Never heard anything like this from BS. Like it. Trance like, psychedelic like….stoner music. Very California late sixties vibe. Had no idea BS had this side. Did not know they were that versatile. They are certainly not known for that, the way Zep is. Pleasant surprise.
Then you obviously have not listened to enough Sabbath.. they have a mellow song or an instrumental on every album.. They are incredibly versatile.. and the different genres of music you hear in almost each and every one,, from metal yes, to blues to jazzy to funk in some a touch of punk and occasionally you can hear a splash of disco if you listen closely their range and talent is far wan wide..
Props to the guy letting us know he wasn't a fan of them, going in. It *does* feel like a tease and I love that there are talented people out there who were inspired by this track and extended it and mixed it into their stuff and so on. Thanks for the reaction.
First time I heard this song was a cover by Pantera, and I was in the right place bit high bit drunk but yea it's a tease. Do Archspire you need to check these drums haha!
👏👏👏🤘🤘 Good job Kane, that was an excellent pick. This track is a little sneak peek into the Django influence that makes up so much of Iommi's style. Glad you guys liked that. It was fun to watch you react to. Rich the Ancient Metal Beast
Keep in mind... The Beatles were recording Get Back (that tv series) releasing the album Let it Be at the same time Black Sabbath put this out. Paranoid. Kinda crazy that those two things were happening at the same time in the same place.
So there is the Ozzy era Sabbath, and the Dio era Sabbath. The band spans many many years, and has many different sounds to explore. I've been guilty of putting bands on the shelf without fully exploring what they have offer. Good on you for giving it another go.
Ozzy's voice is being recorded through a 'Leslie Speaker', an interesting 'tech' of the time which outputs sound through a speaker that is then projected through a spinning 'baffle'.
Just found your channel and I love your honesty. If you dig somethin then I believe you and if you're not feeling something then I get why. Dont change! :)
Really dig the reactions you guys do. I always appreciate a musician’s perspective as I am one myself. I have a few recommendations based on this rock/metal exploration you have started. Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick Live (very early prog rock) Punch Brothers - Familiarity Live (It’s more so bluegrass in roots but it’s very progressive and the musicianship is insane) Opeth - Harlequin Forest (Swedish metal but they are the pinnacle of their metal style, a must hear)
black sabbath drummer bill ward is just amazing, if your a true drum fan then you must go down the black sabbath rabbit hole....the songs i suggest are Hand of Doom, Warpigs,Lord of this World, Into the Void, A National Acrobat and Snowblind....loving your reactions bruvs. im a kiwi who lived 2 years in streatham common london 53 greyhound lane massive!!
Great reaction guys! Black Sabbath has so much excellent music. You should really check out more of their stuff. "The Wizard" is another bluesy song but heavier. Highly recommend. 🤘Rock On!🤘
I feel that you guy's would really like a song from the 80s by Thomas Dolby called "I Scare Myself". This is a little off the beaten path but I think it would push a lot of buttons with you guys. Keep up the good work.
ok. Mars Volta. you have to do “Aberinkula “ off “ Bedlam in Goliath “. First ever song with Thomas Pridgen on drums. This is phsycadellic meets gospel drumming. you got to check it out.
@@marylandstationmusic9422 yes! I've been requesting contortionist over and over again for consistency's sake, but I've been wanting to say something from Mars Volta (although, maybe cliche, but I have to admit I like the first two albums the best)
I love Sabbath and this song but wouldn’t have picked it for a first listen. Symptom of the Universe, War Pigs, Snowblind many many more great songs to explore 😁
Black Sabbath and Ozzy are so misunderstood. They have their dark material but never for the purpose of just being dark; they are making a statement about a dark subject or emotional state. After Forever is another great song that turns people's preconceived notions of Sabbath and Ozzy on their heads.
Hi! Hello! I'm on my first day of pilgrimage to this channel until the next TOOL reaction! In the mean while, have you fellas heard of the great reverend Maynard and his three disciples? Brother Adam, Brother Danny and Justin the bassist? Do carry on!
As much as I love this song, the Pantera cover is my favorite version. Dimebag's guitar solo is godly in that cover version. Also check out Solitude by Black Sabbath and the Ulver cover of that song.
This is a nice little mellow jam. It's not very sabbath-like though. Some War Pigs, Faeries wear boots, The wizard maybe... I know you're gonna feel the drums.
Ay guys. I’ve a suggestion. I want you guys to dive into Classic British prog! Check out Heart of the Sunrise or Siberian Khatru by Yes. You fans will love it I promise 🙏
my dudes.... omg....is there ever been a better spliff song. driver beware........too cool to drool on a long drive. dangerously nod off coolieo song. ~blam blam ~ blam~ blam~
Definitely heard Iron man enough, paranoid, yep they're just those popular tracks that you always kinda end up hearing on tv , social media, or when music stores was a thing, wherever, but will say ( a crime you won't like I'm sure), 1st time hearing Iron man start to end was on the end Credits to the film Iron man, and did enjoy it fed to me that way but in general, just aint my thing, got friends that will mess with Black Sabbath but ain't for me, doesn't mean I ain't willing to give them a listen tho
@@marylandstationmusic9422 Like someone else suggested I would try hand of doom, rat salad, supernaut, and spiral architect. I like most sabbath so I could go in but that's a few you might like.
