Members eSoTeRiK Posted September 27, 2006 Members Share Posted September 27, 2006 I love Sabbath. I hadn't listened to them in a long time, though. I put on Children of the Grave... wow. That's a badass riff if there ever was one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Elric Posted September 27, 2006 Members Share Posted September 27, 2006 Originally posted by blind_man_at_mystic_lake Black Sabbath - s/t. Every time I hear "the wizard", it gives me chills. Sabbath rules. Like others, I think the Ozzy era was the pinnacle and I think of Dio-era Sabbath as a different band but still absolutely killer. I like Dio both as the Sabbath singer and love Dio, the band. Post-Dio Sabbath is hit or miss, but there is a lot of worthy stuff in there, and I actually think Iommi's solo albums have been great.

Members again with this Posted September 27, 2006 Members Share Posted September 27, 2006 Originally posted by pol just get all of them with Ozzy on vocals, there isn't really one that dissapoints. +1 Also, give the Dio Sabbath (Mob rules is one of my all time fave's even though everyone else seems to like Heaven and Hell. Dehumanizer is okay but not great) and the Purple Sabbath with Ian Gillian a listen. After that it's {censored}. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members V-Type Posted September 27, 2006 Members Share Posted September 27, 2006 I just listened to Seven Star and Eternal Idol and they both have some killer riffs as well. Also the Iommi release has a few good collaborations. I still have to get Live at Last on cd to round out my Sabbath collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Allthewayto11 Posted September 27, 2006 Members Share Posted September 27, 2006 When I was in 5th grade (circa 1980), some 8th graders were trying to tell me that Blue Oyster Cult was "heavy." I told them they didn't know what in the hell they were talking about, almost got my ass kicked, then suggested that they listen to Master of Reality. They came to look at me as a guru of sorts.

BoC heavy..lol.Back on topic...Whichever disk Wheels of Confusion is on...great disc!It's an insightful point about the jam/roots origins though. I never really thought about it before but it;s right on the money...since they were originally jazz/blues band Earth of course...the Dio stuff was definately more straight ahead metal, as was Sabbath after that point.

I also prefer the less obvious choices - I'd NEVER play a cover of "Iron Man", for example. "Electric Funeral" is one of my favorites too. I even have a video of me playing it up on youtube, but the sound isn't synced with the video, for some odd reason... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members rhino bucket Posted September 28, 2006 Members Share Posted September 28, 2006 PARANOID, SABATOGE, and HEAVEN & HELL would cover alot of ground. i like some of the none Ozzy stuff, but don't get along very well with the none Bill Ward stuff. Ward is one groovy mofo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jmartin Posted September 28, 2006 Members Share Posted September 28, 2006 "Can sing better yes. But his pretentious songs are horrible. Take the lyrics to "Rainbow in the Dark" Just silly. His whole stage act was pretentious and "evil" While he was a good singer, he didn't have the voice that made BS popular. You'll find a singer that has a DISTINCT voice will be more popular than most any other singer, EVEN if someone can sing BETTER than they can. It's the distinct original sound that hooks people. And Ozzy has such a voice. You ALWAYS know when it is him singing" Exactly how much time-per day-DO you spend sniffing glue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members CyanideChrist Posted October 2, 2006 Members Share Posted October 2, 2006 Originally posted by pol Dio is a great singer technically, but his band DIO bores the hell out of me, I mean what the hell is a song like Holy Diver about ?

Members chrisaxeman Posted October 2, 2006 Members Share Posted October 2, 2006 Originally posted by blackmoreisgod personally, while I LOVE ALL Black Sabbath - Tony Iommi is THE guy that made me start playing guitar - Ronnie James Dio is about 2000% a better singer/songwriter than Ozzy ever thought about being... so I think the albums "Heaven and Hell" & "Mob Rules" are the BEST Sabbath albums, hands down... again, just my opinion. Live Evil is a must for the Dio-era Sabs-I agree that Dio ownes Ozzy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabbath is like a completely different band with Dio vs. Ozzy...I can't wait for the new Sabbath - Dio era boxed set!! *drool* It's supposed to have a couple of NEW songs too!

I hear what you're saying about Iron Man but people do want to hear stuff that they can sing along too.As far as Masters of reality. Into The Void is the one song where people really go nuts. It sounds so heavy live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
