Members dr_love6977 Posted June 8, 2008 Author Members Share Posted June 8, 2008 that song is from 77!Black Sabbath.orDoctor Please - Blue Cheer Wow, I didn't realize it was from that late. Still tho, I think the most metal riff Black Sabbath had was from the song of the same name, and that's because of the augmented fourth. Other than that, I think they had a pretty heavy, distorted, detuned thing going on. But c'mon, the gallop in Barracuda paved the way for modern metal.

Members Terminus Posted June 8, 2008 Members Share Posted June 8, 2008 A real hair-splitting question of definition, but in my book one of the earliest steps of metal is The Kinks' You Really Got Me". Some people say In A Gadda Da Vida by Iron Butterfly too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members glenecho Posted June 8, 2008 Members Share Posted June 8, 2008 I've heard a lot of musicologist types mention the Kinks...You Really Got Me...etc. I know I've heard them mentioned as being both "the first metal song" and "the first song with distortion" etc. Very much up to personal opinion. To me...those Kinks tunes ain't metal but hey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me...those Kinks tunes ain't metal but hey. yeah. people love to throw the word "metal" around. lots of bands from the 60s love to say "we invented heavy metal". even dick dale likes to say that. I think that, in order for something to be Metal, there should be an inherent desire to kick all asses, musically speaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I'm saying. I cited 'Barracuda' as an example because it has that big galloping rhythm guitar, which is a technique still used in modern metal. Being the first to use distortion, etc. does not mean you're metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Iron Lotus Posted June 8, 2008 Members Share Posted June 8, 2008 I vote these threads are {censored}ing stupid, Being nobody here will EVER know what the true first "metal" riff was. Not to mention how the meaning of things change over time. I mean doyou really think some dumb {censored} by a band of chicks was the first metal riff... There was probably guys underground doing things long before that {censored} came out. And nobody ever knew them since they stayed underground until their dying days.
