Led Zeppelin VS Black Sabbath (Guitar Riffs Battle) 

Thank you very much man! Greetings from Portugal! 🤘😉🤘

You're right

One of the best comments I have seen

L3D Z3PP3LiN

Ambos

Also bassists. JPJ and Geezer are both outstanding.

And guitarists

compared to bonzo steve ward was below average,even he admitted it

@@GeoZeppelin1979 Who's Steve ward? Idiot. Bill ward was fucking amazing.

Oh for sure. Bill Ward really gets overlooked cause he was with tony iommi and geezer and ozzy. But no denying Bill was also a driving force of Sabbath.Same goes for JPJ he seems to not get the credit he so rightfully deserves cause he was with plant page and bonzo. But paul jones did alot for zeppelin

🤘😜🤘

You guys are my favorite cover band then!

i think you are wrong you did go somewhere, and THAT is the true joy on having a band, even if there isn't anyone listening, get your guitar or any instrument and play for yourself, that is the beauty about playing! 😊

@@alanwatts8239 I agree with you man! 🤘😜🤘

Jajajajaja

You win Best Comment.

Hunter02 TV then Kashmir “ok someone’s dead”

Led Zeppelin: _Plays Black Dog_ Black Sabbath: _Plays Iron Man_ Led Zeppelin: *Plays Kashmir* The game: *Over*

honestly sorry to all the Zep fans. i like Kashmir and all i just think the riff isnt that impressive, just personal preference i prefer black dog

It was over with immigrant but paranoid almost got the win

👍😉🤘

Thanks for the entertaining video. I’m a subscriber. You got the licks.

Holy shit you cracked the code

Which is which?

Bright and Tight, and Boom and Gloom are really the only words you need. Nailed it right there

More like LZ: Blues rock, and BS: Hard rock

Skirmantas Stankevičius no lol

@ black Sabbath is definitely metal...they created it

MrCat Fans decided it, but it as “heavy” as Uriah Heep, for an example and somehow the later one is not considered heavy metal.

MrCat I’d say both are credited for creating it, along with Deep Purple. Zeppelin is definitely not as hard as Sabbath, but just as heavy IMO

Yeahhhh... 🤘😜🤘

@Vambo Rools Fair enough!

I agree with all of you gentlemen

@Vambo Rools LOL @ Black Zeppelin....good one !!

Damn Black Zeppelin already stolen

Tony was more into riffs while Geezer on bass played the main course

Lol Sweet Leaf iron Man, and nib is definitely blues scale based. Tony was a blues guitarist like page they both just spiked it with psychedelic scales when soloing, Tony mostly took the Dorian stuff, page was a major/mixolydian stuff, but Jimmy was much more versatile using more scales that are both major and minor. But they are too close to say who's better.

JJ Frost p

@@Chiarobscur q

lotta of Iommi riffs is inspired by blues scales

🤘😉🤘

Good name)

Led Sabbath

led sabbath

Kurt Cobain you’re dead tho

@@miguelsequeiraguitar Vejo os teus vídeos ja algum tempo e só agora é que soube hahaha é bom saber isso. Um abraço e continua com o bom trabalho :)

@@joaobartolomeu4323 Mais uma vez muito obrigado João! Forte Abraço! 👍😉

The ocean is possibly my favourite riff ever !

We've done 4 already but now we are steady and then they went: 1, 2, 3, 4...

To many to choose but I agree

CHILDREN OF THE GRAVE

Yea, how come no riff battle videos that features Led Zepp neber includes The Ocean? That entire song is wonderful

👍😜🤘

Hmm interesting comparison but it might make sense

Thank you very much man! Greetings from Portugal! 👍😉

🤘😉🤘

John Paul jones wrote that one too, not page!

Not as cool as Into The Void😏

My favourite riff of all time.

Nathan923 vocals too

And so does the bass! Give a try listening to the bassline in isolation , it's so damn tasty.

If you think war pigs is good listen to rat salad

@@goofyblud Rat Salad is good for what it is, but like Moby Dick and other well known drum solos, the live renditions are always far superior.

👍😉

Oh yes

What??? Motorhead vs ZZ Top, WTH?? You may as well compare Slayer and Lisa Loeb...!

@@patrickmcleod111 hahaha true

I agree. We can't do battle. Heretic idea.

🤘😜🤘

Such a truth... And I'm not even a sabbath fan! 😂

@@edoardoluppi6455 🤘😉🤘

Atom turtle very well said👍

I totally agree, I do however think it criminal that the Supernaut riff wasn't included. Bloody good video though.

Hahaha... 😁 🤘😜🤘

more like Bonzo Ward and Ozzy Plant

Robert Osbourne, Tony Page, John Paul Butler and Bill Bonham

@@coolzr573 Ozzy Plant sounds great! 😂

bobby osborne

Rock 'n' Roll agreed

Yes i know, Lord of the rings-ish

🤘😉🤘

That is a copy of Eric Claptons Sunshine of love

@@benjaminpehm1914 ow yeah,like tony is need stole riff other musicians,You dumbass

@@benjaminpehm1914 hahahahahahaha hahaha

@@benjaminpehm1914 First off, there are only so many possible combinations of notes and chords, so some riffs are bound to be similar. But NIB is a power chord progression with only about .8 seconds of similarity with Sunshine.

🤘😉🤘

John Paul Jones created the Black Dog riff tho.....not Page.

Fish man yes

One of my least favorite Zepp songs...

same with Megalomania :v

Martin Javalera megalovania is shite

@@jroz1692 I said Megalomania XDDD Learn to read please

Thanks

Sabbath riffs are simple. Led Zeppelin, not much. I learned all of the Sabbath songs listed by ear before i was 15.

@@guitarplayer2846 sometimes simple riffs make the most awesome noise. Rock on Guitarist - a fellow bassist

No Achilles?

It literally says on the video the name of each song lol

🤘😉🤘

Achilles Last Stand, No Quarters, Dazed n Confused are metal, zep and Sabbath are both the Gods of metal.

JIMMY PAGE IS THE GOD'S OF ALL FATHER OF THE HEAVY METAL !!!

@@fredricCartier no. Too much blues stuff going on. Tony gave us low tuned heavy distorted guitar and the b5th interval wich is the evilest note on an instrument.

@@beatlejuice5951 The blues is the basis for all rock. Iommi himself admits this and always hated the term heavy metal.

​@@beatlejuice5951 that interval is in the blues scale like twice man

I agree with you! Regards from Portugal my friend! 🤘😉🤘

Sabbath wins obviously

Without question. My favorite is Into the Void.

Yup I agree, one person I also really like is Mick Mars from Motley Crue, his riffs are god level as well

SORRY DUDE.. JIMMY IS THE MAN AND ALWAYS WILL BE.... MORE CREATIVE AND WORKED A GUITAR LIVE LIKE NOBODY'S BUSINESS,...

Arthur D Duda it’s great that we all have our own opinions. Jimmy Page is very good for sure.

how can he be a goat if hes not even close to Page?

I just did Metallica vs Megadeth and Iron vs Priest! Check the videos on my channel! Regards from Portugal! 🤘😉🤘

Rainbow vs Queen? That’s an odd pairing but Queen will win the moment the Bohemian Rhapsody metal part comes in. I’d like to see Queen vs Aerosmith. Them two bands toured together as support acts when they were first starting out.

@@itslikethesamebutdifferent8020 Queen would win without Boh Rhap. They got awesome riffs such as Stone Cold Crazy, Son And Daughter, Now I'm Here, Tie Your Mother Down, Ogre Battle, Modern Times Rock And Roll, Keep Yourself Alive, Fat Bottomed Girls... Even 'White Queen' riff would battle against Stairway To Heaven imo.

I would prefer iron maiden vs motorhead

Rainbow? Rainbow wins!

Yes! 😁 Greetings from Portugal! 👍😉

Yesssss... Regards from Portugal! 🤘😉🤘

@@miguelsequeiraguitar 😈🤘🤘🤘🎸🎸🎵🎵🔊🔊

Laughing Out Loud everything is complex about his playing, look at the heartbreaker solo

Go pats!!

Iommi invented the power chord

“Into the Void”, “Under the Sun”, “A National Acrobat”, “Symptom of the Universe”, “Lady Evil”, “Falling off the Edge of the World”, “Methademic”

@@eldangster1616 let’s be honest though Page was more inconsistent live. You could get a show where he’s playing his ass off or you could get one where he’s sloppy all over the place. I watched a live version of heartbreaker and the solo was not great really muddy and hard to hear

🤘😉🤘

Black Sabbath were 10x Times more blues than Zeppelin

Don't wanna be that guy... but I'm gonna be that guy. Half the Zeppelin riffs were stolen other artists.

@@luismarioguerrerosanchez4747 No. Other than Dazed and confused, they really didnt steal that much. They did alot of covers but they admitted they were covers even if they didnt know who the original writer was. Even when they did covers, they really only used the lyric and maybe the chord progressions. Technically DAC was a cover of a Yardsbirds song which Jimmy Page did steal from james holmes but he really only stole the lyrics and melody not the actual riff.

I'm gonna be that guy and tell you that Paranoid ripped off both Communication Breakedown and one of the original riffs on Dazed and Confused

Ryan Brown Yeah okay, why don’t you have a look at Communication Breakdown, 1969, the solo especially. Does it sound familiar, yes it does because everyone copied it later. Also Dazed n Confused, the fast part of it. It is straight out metal, in 69. Black Sabbath also ripped off Paranoid’s riff from Dazed’. He even said “There would be no Sabbath without Zeppelin”. So zeppelin invented metal, and Judas Priest/Black Sabbath took it to new levels.

Blue Cheer in my opinion birthed metal

@@xdd782 led zepplin inspired heavy metal, they didn't invent it

i don’t disagree but cream is also in the conversation

AgentOfOblivion hell yeah. you really got me changed everything

Yeahhh... 👍😉

Have to agree. Sabbath had some better melodic riffs.

LedSabbath😂

I protest :) There is no winner... This is Black Zeppelin, MAN! They are in perfect harmony :) Listen ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ThU9BOWcmjM.html :D

Youre ouf if your god damn mind if you cant see the Led Sabbath is clearly better.

Duffloop Or Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. Or CORNUCOPIA.

SABBATH BLOODY SABBATH (the riff at 3:18 in the song)

Supernaut and Snowblind

Yeahhh... 👍😉

hell ya

I just did that video! Check the videos of my channel. Regards from Portugal! 🤘😉🤘

Never listened to megadeath. Literally no idea what they even sound like. Just know they are a heavier rock/metal thrash type things. But man i cant stand metallica. I always thought it was the worst damn music. I feel like i was too young for it. Im onky 25. But grew up listening to like yarbirds. Cream. Fleetwoodmac. Pinkfloyd. Eagles/joewalsh. Zepplin Aerosmith hendrix. And was heavily influenced by the OLD blues guys like john lee hooker. Etc. Bb king. Got. Little into grunge. Was loving nirvana. But rhe heavier stuff like metallica always just seemed like it didnt fit somehow in my mind. But thats why i love music so much. If we all loved the same exact thing music would suck cause all the greats from like 1850s to late 1990s would all sound exactly rhe same. Kinda like how new pop bs does. The fact that there is soo much music in every damn style LITERALLY makesme so happy

Patrick Rosington agree with you, I play guitar I really like how the guitar sounds with this bands Megadeth and Metallica , but the blues is the best everything came from the blues, and Hendrix man he was the best

@@ephufer1 Blues? The best? Are you talking about guitar?😂😂😂 Have you heard about flamenco?

Leyenda Negra 🤦🏻‍♂️ rock, metal come from blues. That’s what I mean, we are taking about rock here

Hahaha... love it! 🤘😉🤘

😂 i feel like this when hearing those godly-good riffs

That is cool.

Hahaha... 🤘😜🤘

🤘😉🤘

mine is under the sun and snowblind . Sabbath for life

It really is but i love it

The Rover

Kenmoops heck yes

Underrated?????

Plagiarized

Yep! 🤘😉🤘

Sad, people tend to bucket everything nowadays into non existent categories..... There were no such categories when these two played in the 70s..... Besides both have great influence on both rock and metal across ages....

🤘😉🤘

that’d be Tony Iommi. With a capital ‘i’

jimi hendrix...?

LOMMY SORY BUT WTF

@@immatheww now people are spelling the spelling mistakes wrong, he said Lommi not Lommy 😂

@@TK21700 WTF😂😂😂😂

Yes they are! 🤘😉🤘

🤘😉🤘

I love sabbath. My top 4 favorite bands of all time. I grew up on it. While i don't hate zeppelin at all, i will say that i'm just not that big of a fan.

I'm the opposite of Marin: Led Zeppelin is the greatest rock band of all time, IMO, but Black Sabbath was just okay, to me.

💯

Zeppelins lyrics alone are more appealing to ME . Sabbaths lyrics are more appealing to a lot of people today given the state of the world ✌

🤘😉🤘

Sabbath is the way to go

@@chegwalker618 The prince of darkness claims them all in the end.

The singer for Black Sabbath ozzy osbourne

👍😜🤘

I like that idea my friend! 👍😉

Lol it's could be coolest duet ever

Ozzy all the way

the problem there, is that you are asking for a battle between 2 vocalists

@@rowanwills9698 lol

Like

Miguel Sequeira tom morello vs jack white??

Clapton vs Beck

Hendrix the one and only

Hendrix v Vaughan

Thanks a lot! Greetings from Portugal! 👍😉

The song remains the same vs megalomanía y en la armónica when the leeve breaks vs the wizard

Children of the Sea aint bad either!

Sir SwearsAlot except maybe the bands they stole the riffs from

@@iniqu1ty A bunch of 12 bar blues please, that's not stealing

Sabbath can compete.

ACDC

Excuse me, but what about DEEP PURPLE?

And Page a god on solos

He didn't even do Zeppelin's best riffs, like "The Ocean", "Heartbreaker", "Out On The Tiles", "Good Times Bad Times", "Celebration Day", "In My Time Of Dying", etc. I absolutely love Black Sabbath and consider Iommi a genius but Led Zeppelin is 50,000 times better. Literally every Zeppelin song has an amazing riff, and every song has it's own unique atmosphere. With Black Sabbath, many of the songs have one signature sound.

Tony is the master of riffs, Page is the master of lifted riffs

@@KTF0 Actually he's more the master of lifting lyrics and writing original riffs. "Black Mountain Side" being the one exception.

Totally two different type of bands. Led Zeppelin is a Classic blues rock band and Sabbath invented a whole new style of bluesy rock. Led zeppelin and blue cheer would of been a better comparison. I don't know any band that had a style like Sabbath back then.

Dictator's word is the law

Not even close. Zeppelin

Purple 💜

I think Zeppelin ;)

Thanks a lot man! Regards from Portugal! 🤘😉🤘

I feel psychedelic era started with Hendrix. Those English boys all standing around watching Hendrix doing all his reverb, distorted, pedal effect chords Yeah i think so Remember Jimi started over there in late '66 .

Yes, it was Keith Richards girlfriend who discovered Jimi and took him to the UK. He had 3 UK chart toppers in the first year. Hendrix was a huge influence on Queen guitarist, Brian May. Where most guitarists hated feedback, Brian loved Hendrix and embraced his feedback and fuzz tone.

@@masterplots -No it was Chas Chandler of the Animals who found Jimi

@@roberts.6575 Sorry, I phrased it wrong. Linda Keith, girlfriend of the Stones’ Keith Richards, persuaded Chas Chandler, bass player of the Animals, to go and listen to Hendrix play at the "Cafe Wha?".

🤘💀🤘

Unfair battle. Slayer always wins

🤘😉🤘

👍😉

I disagree Black Sabbath is the creator of heavy metal they’re the gods

and Black Sabbath is the best band in the history of metal, Rock on bro! \m/

Led zeppelin change the rock and roll history forever.

@@cristianulloa4304 and black sabbath invented metal

😂😂

The best thing is that this video doesn't even include most of the better Sabbath riffs, such as Killing Yourself to Live, Megalomania, Snowblind and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath

No he escuchado nada (literalmente) de Rush, me recomiendan escucharla? :vvv

Ya, but jimmy played his riffs without his soul

@@furlong337 😂

He had all his fingers, they were just shorter than normal!

In a parallel rip off blues songs universe,yes!In this universe,IOMMI is God

@@Ecclesiastes11718 which one of the Zep songs played here were ripped off?

With so many riffs any amateur could have come up with? 1:11 2:27 7:18

Tony Iommi created infinitely more memorable riffs than Jimmy Page, don't know wtf you're talking about or if you've ever actually listened to Black Sabbath's Catalogue. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Snowblind, Megalomania (2 memorable riffs), Iron Man, Killing Yourself to Live (which has like 4 insane riffs in one song), Wheels of Confusion, A national Acrobat, Fairies Wear Boots, Electric Funeral, Black Sabbath, Supernaut, Hole in the Sky, Looking for Today, the list goes on and on and on.

@@Schizosepsis how many of them are memorable? Iron man, paranoid, war pigs, black sabbath and the others are great, but not memorable as fucking Whole Lotta Love, Stairway To Heaven, Heartbreaker, Communication Breakdown, Good Times Bad Times, Black Dog, Immigrant Song and here are only few, I can name many more. Not saying Iommi was a bad guitarist, he was also a god, but Page was really on another level of composing

Communication Breakdown > Iron Man.

immigrant song is just better than anything black sabbath have.

@@randomguy3000 i think iron man is better than Immigrant but Kashmir is better than iron man😅

@@magnusbley1665 respect

Yeahhh... 🤘😉🤘

I think Sabbath is more rhythmically complex, while Zeppelin is more harmonically complex. Those chord changes are easy, but timing them is another story!

@@Gguy061 Noothing about Sabbath was more complex than Zeppelin. Some of Zeppelin's time signature experimentation would have completely confused Sabbath. That's why they did almost everything in straight ahead 4/4. Unimaginative band that just wanted to be "heavy."
