Rock and Metal's Black Sabbath Thread

[TerryThorne]

Actually, better paranoid than We Sold our Souls if you are inclined to get it. We sold.. has like half of the songs from paranoid

[JACKROXYOU]

yea but its a good beginner

[pigonthewing82]

I think a good starting place would be Past Lives. It has good songs to start out with, and it gives you a tast of their live stuff.

[acefrehleyjendell]

yea but its a good beginner


I would reccomend paranoid to anyone to become introduced to
Sabbath.

Most greatest hits albums usually have all of Paranoid except like
rat salad and hand of doom.

Maybe The Best of is the way to go, as it has Dio and Gillan tracks also.

[Josh]

what gillan tracks are on the best of black sabbath?

[shadow_stalker]

Welcome back Andy. :thumb:

Even though I am not a n00b, I have been posting for quite a while as most of you will know I still quite like the Paranoid album(especially electric funeral) the only gripe I have is that the songs Paranoid and Iron Man get boring so quick there great when you first listen but I was sick of them in about a week. As pointless as that seemed I felt that I had to say that.

[shadow_stalker]

i love the paranoid album there isn't a song on it that i dont like, tis all good stuff

[02058]

Sabbath are one of my favrite bands but my cd just skrewd up, any way, yeah there

[02058]

great

[02058]

Who thinks the paraniod solo is one of sabbaths easyest solo's to play

[pigonthewing82]

Who thinks the paraniod solo is one of sabbaths easyest solo's to play

Well it was written in what 15 min or somthing.

[Brew]

Scotland was great.

Paranoid blows goats with big horns and floppy testicles.

I'm hungry.

[Josh]

its all this bloody global warming. and i just realised that technically we're spamming.
/ is listening to sabbra cadabra

[pigonthewing82]

Thats right sorry, yea I'm listening to the reunion cd. I wish they did The Wizerd instead of Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. It was just sad hearing him try to hit those high nots like he used to and fail.

[JetPiolit472]

Sabbath's best albums were Paranoid and Vol.4. anyone ever hear supernaut? great song... :)

NIB
Fairies Wear Boots
After Forever
Snowblind
Black Sabbath
Sweet Leaf
Electric Funeral
Into the Void

[pigonthewing82]

Custom avatars > the bog standard mx ones.

I'm sorry to turn away from the point of this fourm again, but I just have to know how do you get custom avatars? I'm sick of this crappy Led Zepplin one. (sorry but I am a noob :upset: )

[Brew]

You need a pic thats 70x70 pixels, on the choose avatar screen go down to custom avatar section(its near the bottom) and find it on yer comp then upload it.

[IAJP]

That setlist would rule,
but you know it's gonna be mostly Paranoid material,
my bet is that they will deffinitley do Black Sabbath

[ToRidTheDisease]

You guys seen the new Tony Iommi distortion pedal?

[IAJP]

No, but I already want it so much.
:upset:

[Brew]

Oops, I missed out Black Sabbath.

/me edits.

[IAJP]

Heres my setlist:
Every track off Paranoid, plus a few random ones, including Black Sabbath,

[Brew]

Even Planet Caravan?

A song they've never performed live?

And it has Heaven and hell and turn up the night are on it too.

[rippa32]

No can you give us a link?

[JACKROXYOU]

[Josh]

The dark/Zero the hero.

yeh i know, heaven and hell , and turn up the night are dio i think. which albums did gillan do with sabbath?

[ArcLite]

yeh i know, heaven and hell , and turn up the night are dio i think. which albums did gillan do with sabbath?

I think he only did Born Again. I may be wrong.

[Josh]

ok, thanks
/is very bored, is now on third snow day this week.

[shadow_stalker]

is school actually off today? (to sack-man)

i don't like the last 4 songs on the best of black sabbath (including 'a hard road')

[rippa32]

I think he only did Born Again. I may be wrong.

Yeah that was the only one. Underrated album or so I've heard.

[relayer]

Born Again is not only underrated but "apparently" it's considered to be crap. The cover is said to be the worst album cover ever, which may be true...it's pretty bad.
Anyway, the album is quite good- the title track is great, the riff from "Zero the Hero" can be heard in GnR's "Paradise City", strangely enough, and "Born Again" is where the whole "Stonehenge" idea in "This Is Spinal Tap" came from. I think, but I could be wrong...

[rippa32]

I quite like the cover. And no I am not disturbed.

[acefrehleyjendell]

I think he only did Born Again. I may be wrong.

Yeah he did, the Dio tracks are heaven and hell, and turn up the night.
The Dark/Zero the hero are the Gillan tracks.

[IAJP]

SS:A Hard Road is good, one of the best off NSD.
Rippa: Yeah it's a good/underated album

[shadow_stalker]

i dont like it, it's not bad but it really isnt on of my favourites

[HEDRIXISGOD]

led zepplin sounding like sabbath, well hey, their both brits. i was just listining to some sabbath the other day, and man do they got some sick guitar.

[IAJP]

Yeah, Iomi is my single biggest influence.

[blackshuck]

Black Sabbath are getting together to play Download this year, if i can go it will be the best show of my entire life

[willis2441]

i got iron man live on my musicmatch jukebox :thumb:

[pigonthewing82]

I love The Wizerd I think thats Black Sabbath's most underrated song.

[Brew]

I can play all of Iron Man on bass.

I normally improvise over the Sabbath bass lines, for example in The Warning there's at least 5mins of solid bass improvisation thats great to play if ye have a good idea of what yer doing.

I wish people would read the thread, we've known about Sabbath being at Download for ages.

[shadow_stalker]

The Wizard is a brilliant song, but im not sure if it's their most underated. But it's pretty high on the list.

[shadow_stalker]

i tried to play iron man on the drums but i thought my arm was going to fall off by the end of it.

[Brew]

First time I played all of Iron Man full speed my arm did fall off.

[pigonthewing82]

I can play all of Iron Man on bass.

I normally improvise over the Sabbath bass lines, for example in The Warning there's at least 5mins of solid bass improvisation thats great to play if ye have a good idea of what yer doing.

Wow impressive. Yea I do a lot of guitar improv on Iron man, but its easy to find improv areas on that song for guitar.

[shadow_stalker]

First time I played all of Iron Man full speed my arm did fall off.

wow thats amazing, how did you get it back on?

[Brew]

Super Glue.

[Josh]

ROFLMAO

titch hurry and do your music coursework so i can borrow your bass

yea,its pretty hard but i can play all of it.i was once so obsessed with that song i learned it all.im prolly rusty on it now...

[Danger Bird]

Anybody know where I can download a Black Sabbath font for free?

[acefrehleyjendell]

Wow impressive. Yea I do a lot of guitar improv on Iron man, but its easy to find improv areas on that song for guitar.

Yeah i have to improvise when i play Sabbath solos lol.

I pretty much wrote my own for paranoid, N.I.B, and War Pigs.

[pigonthewing82]

Yeah i have to improvise when i play Sabbath solos lol.

I pretty much wrote my own for paranoid, N.I.B, and War Pigs.

Yea I do improv on all those but I think N.I.B is my best work, well and that that song is fun as hell to play.

[Brew]

I improvise the bass solos to NIB.

[pigonthewing82]

I love improv, even if its sh1tty improv. Whats the fun in learning a song if you don't add your own thing to it. I find that Black Sabbath are an easy band to add improv to.

[acefrehleyjendell]

Yeah, and whatever your style, theres always something to add.

[pigonthewing82]

I feel so let down when I buy a live album from a band that I like, and they don't even change any of the songs. Its like why preform live if your gonna do that.

[willis2441]

dosent war pigs have a low solo instead of high one?

[Brew]

To give the fans what they want, not everyone is into 10min+ improvised songs.

[Hot Darn!]

I bought the Symptoms of the Universe 2 CD set recently. My first Sabbath cd and I absoultely love it. i actually hesitated at first because I really only knew their radio songs and a few others, but it was really cheap in the used bin, so it was all good :)

[willis2441]

bill ward is my favorite old guy drummer,hes rusty and out of his game but he could still outdrum most drummers nowadays(and by rusty and out of his game i mean not as good as he used to be)

[pigonthewing82]

To give the fans what they want, not everyone is into 10min+ improvised songs.

Well I don't mean just 10min+ I mean like playing it exactly the same note for note, I'm trying to think of an example but its hard because I don't listen to bands like that.

[shadow_stalker]

yea,its pretty hard but i can play all of it.i was once so obsessed with that song i learned it all.im prolly rusty on it now...

the only parts that get me are the amount of times Bill changes the fills and the end bit, because i can't find any decent tabs. :angry:

[rippa32]

Well I don't mean just 10min+ I mean like playing it exactly the same note for note, I'm trying to think of an example but its hard because I don't listen to bands like that.

Im currently learning the solo to NIB and I noticed it was slightly different live not much but still a bit. And I still like Black Sabbath live because the seem to have a different sound when on the stage. But if you really want long solos get Past Lives they do a nice long one that is jazz at some points for Wicked World.

[shadow_stalker]

Past Lives is awesome, and you get a free Black Sabbath pick with it.

[rippa32]

Yes but I have not used it yet (Im paranoid about breaking it or something)

[shadow_stalker]

Yeah, i want to use it but what if something happens to it?

I would have to buy a new past live's for a new one.

[lensmand1]

paranoid about breaking it :amaze: :amaze: :lol: :lol: be ashamed of your punning :naughty: Anywayz, for me the best album was 'Bloody' still playing it now after all these years......
Attempting to learn the Bass solo for NIB at the mo ( Very new to the whole thing) and having fun. When geezer played it at the reunion gig it was awsome, simply indescribable.
Love the band and always will :evil:

[rippa32]

I wouldnt go to that extreme. You might be able to buy em separate at a music shop.

[rippa32]

Actually I didn't realise the pun until I had already posted it.

[lensmand1]

It amazes me how Ozzy suddenly has full use of his body again when on stage. And he suddenly has an american accent!

[rippa32]

Its not american.

[lensmand1]

i know he is a brummie, but he certainly don't sing like one. It wouldnt be very satanic would it :-)

[rippa32]

Singing voices are always different, look at Brian Johnson of AC/DC hes a Geordie for God's sake.

[shadow_stalker]

Woo go Geordies!

[shadow_stalker]

It amazes me how Ozzy suddenly has full use of his body again when on stage. And he suddenly has an american accent!

I hate it when people say that Ozzy puts on an american accent.

[rippa32]

So do I. At least he didnt say PaRanOiD ROX like most n00bs.

[shadow_stalker]

So do I. At least he didnt say PaRanOiD ROX like most n00bs.

...good thing i havnt said anything like that...

[rippa32]

lol What I actually meant was that most n00bs are pretty close minded when it comes to Sabbaths other songs but over time they understand the magic of their other music. This guy already knows that I think because he said something about Sabbath Bloody Sabbath.

[shadow_stalker]

ok, hmm havnt got much to say about sabbath today.

Anyone got a favourite song that they like to play by sabbath (on any instrument).

[rippa32]

I can play Iron Man main riff, NIB and children of the grave intro(incrdibly easy but also incredebly cool and sounds great)

[rippa32]

Well this post is kinda pointless because I jus wanted to reach 400 posts before I left so
Go Black Sabbath and all who have played for the band.

[angus-young]

paranoid is by far my favourite, it may not fav a crazy riff but it is awsome

[pigonthewing82]

My fav to play is Fairies Wear Boots. Its just awsome.

[shadow_stalker]

I always meant to learn Fairies were boots on the guitar but never got round to it.

Electric Funeral is good to play (on guitar) and the intro to 'behind the wall of sleep'.

[KILO5203]

i always meant to learn sabbath bloody sabbath but never got around to it. i love that song though.

[IAJP]

Bollocks Rippa is beating me.

[IAJP]

Uh yeah, my favourite Sabbath song to play is:
Supernaut, mainly because my band does a cover of it, I know it all, and it's cool. Good lyrics too.
(It's been my MSN name for over 2 months) the "Don't try to reach me cus I'll tear up your mind, I've seen the future and I left it behind"
God I love that song so much,

[shadow_stalker]

I'm beating you all.

Mwahahaha!

[IAJP]

Meh, as long as I'm up there.
Did Rippa leave? I just read up it looked like a leaving post :eek:

[shadow_stalker]

I think he ment 400 posts before he went off line...at least thats what i hope he meant.

[IAJP]

It looked like a leaving post,
oh well I guess.
I'll let this Megadeth song finnish and I'll get some sabbath on,

[shadow_stalker]

Hurray, everyone loves sabbath and if they dont they should.

[Brew]

Under the Sun, Sabbra Cadabra, Tomorrow's Dream, The Warning and NIB are my fav. Sabbath songs to play.

On bass that is, quite easily the greatest instrument ever.

And for showing off's sake, I can play Paranoid with my bass over the back of my head.

[ToRidTheDisease]

A National Acrobat is now officially my favorite Sabbath song.

[shadow_stalker]

This may seem weird but, can anyone play a sabbath song that they have come to hate palying for any reason?

i know how this feels because for a time i didnt like playing paranoid.

[ToRidTheDisease]

Iron Man, because people play it way too much.

[shadow_stalker]

Iron Maiden?

[Brew]

Paranoid.

I used to play way to much in my old band, we (read: the guitarist) sucked at playing it.

[ToRidTheDisease]

Iron Maiden?
Edited. Oh man, that was quite a Power Metal Nerd Brain-fart.

[Brew]

pwned by a great band.

[willis2441]

the only parts that get me are the amount of times Bill changes the fills and the end bit, because i can't find any decent tabs. :angry:
i learn by ear,**** tabs,i cant seem to comprehend them,its easier to just learn by listening

[rippa32]

I think he ment 400 posts before he went off line...at least thats what i hope he meant.

I wish. I was thinking about getting it through Amazon but theres already so much stuff I want to buy this month.

Meh, I already have all the Ozzy era Sabbath albums and I've seen the DVD footage.

I prefer the vinyl sound of my albums :)

I love the vinyl sound, it sounds so good, especially with sabbath.

I reckon cd's really do a dis-service to bands like

Sabbath
Led Zep
The Who
KISS
Rolling Stones
AC/DC

I really want one :upset:

i don't think its available to the uk though. :angry:

[Brew]

They called it Paranoid?

What a joke!

[JACKROXYOU]

215 bucks ****

[Brew]

They also say you can get the early Judas Priest style distortion, so why not call it Starbreaker?

[JACKROXYOU]

yea

it would kick *** if it was called british steel

[shadow_stalker]

They called it Paranoid?

What a joke!

Why couldn't they have called it the Iommi distortion pedal? It would have been a better idea :lol:

[ToRidTheDisease]

:lol: I knew Andy would say something.

[rippa32]

Even though I am a beginning guitarist If I get good enough to be in a band I would still not like to sound exactly the same as the original.

[shadow_stalker]

I don't think i would buy it (i couldnt afford it).

I like the distortion my amp gives off anyway so i wouldnt need a pedal (also im a drummer so...)

[handicap$]

u gotta love black sabbath out of all the guitar players in the world randy rhodes of black sabbath was the best and made black sabbath what it was and him and ozzy made the band awsome .......

[IAJP]

Rhandy Roads was Ozzy's guitarist, Tony Iomi was Black Sabbath's.

[acefrehleyjendell]

Rhandy Roads was Ozzy's guitarist, Tony Iomi was Black Sabbath's.

some people just never learn do they, i think i've told about 200 people
the exact same thing. :confused:

Yeah, it gets annoying after a while*

Nevermind, here's a link to look and buy.

cool thanks. i want one, but $212 is way too much. id rather buy a laney amp.

[Brew]

Never mind im sure that it wont happen again... :lol:

It probably will happen again.

And again.

And again.

Ah well.

[sabbathfan37]

Never mind im sure that it wont happen again... :lol:


ha...haha...ha... yeaaah... sure....

[JACKROXYOU]

wow a randy rhoads fan

[GFEBassist]

I picked up bass because of Sabbath, they are a tremendous band and will always have a place in my CD wallet. My favorite song is "Wicked World." I love that solo after the interlude.

[rippa32]

Yeah the solo is good, but have you heard it on Past Lives? That is freakin awesome.

[acefrehleyjendell]

I'm buying vol.4 yet again.

On friday... It's the 2004 reissue

[pigonthewing82]

some people just never learn do they, i think i've told about 200 people
the exact same thing. :confused:

Yea about everybody who I talk to think Randy Rhoads was in Black Sabbath. Him and Tony sound way different.

[Josh]

they definitely do, although i prefer the rhoads solo on paranoid to iommi's

[pigonthewing82]

they definitely do, although i prefer the rhoads solo on paranoid to iommi's

Yea as much as I hate to say it I love Rhoads solo much more then Iommi's. Don't get me wrong I love Iommi, but it was Rhoads playing Paranoid that made me pick up a guitar for the first time, not Iommi :thumb:

[ToRidTheDisease]

I updated the first opening post, check it out.

Also, Iommi >>>>>>>>>> Rhoads.

[pigonthewing82]

I updated the first opening post, check it out.

Also, Iommi >>>>>>>>>> Rhoads.

Oh yea defenetly I never ment otherwise. I just prefer Rhoads.

[sabbathfan37]

I updated the first opening post, check it out.

Also, Iommi >>>>>>>>>> Rhoads.



iommi >>>> (to the infinite'th power) >> rhoads

{ iommi >>>>>>>>> (hundreds more >'s) >>>>> every guitarist on earth }

[pigonthewing82]

iommi >>>> (to the infinite'th power) >> rhoads

I'm just wondering, but who said otherwise?

[sabbathfan37]

nobody, just improving on laihorocker666's statement.

[rippa32]

I'm buying vol.4 yet again.

On friday... It's the 2004 reissue

Whats the point? They sound exactly the same. I have that particular reissue and one song from a Best Of made in 1995 (Between Heaven and Hell) they sound exactly the same.

[shadow_stalker]

Unfortunatly i only have the 2004 reissues, but i don't mind them they are all good.

Is the Sabbath box set worth picking up?

[sabbathfan37]

(even though i dont have it) id say it is if you dont have many of their albums

[pigonthewing82]

Is the DVD any good.

[rippa32]

Hey sack man what non-ozzy albums do you have?

[Josh]

i have dehumanizer on my computer, but thats it, the only sabbath album i actually have a genuine copy of is sabbath bloody sabbath, and i want more non-ozzy albums before i get any ozzy-sabbath albums. i thought maybe genuine copy of dehumanizer, and possibly something like TYR?

[rippa32]

Yeah TYR is really good, but why non-ozzy first?

[Josh]

to be honest i find ozzy's vocals quite annoying, and i have one of his solo albums as well - ozzy era sabbath is good but i want some variation.

Dio + Martin pwn Ozzy for vocal range, but Ozzy's voice is just so...unique.

I stil say ozzy is a better singer, not for vocal talent but he is just great.

[Hammerheart]

Heaven and Hell is the best Black Sabbath album. That is all.

He got pretty much the same thing in a neg rep aswell.

ozzy apparently admitted that when he started, he used to step up to the mic, shout and hope it sounded ok. he is definitely unique though.

[JACKROXYOU]

i like his voice though

[Josh]

for what i said earlier, i suppose really i should have said i find his vocals annoying in large doses. anyway, sabbath rocked with and without him

[sabbathfan37]

Black Sabbath was all Tony. without him, they wouldnt have started writing darker music, and had he not lobbed the ends of his fingers off and needed to tune down, bands like metallica(ick), slayer and most other heavy metal bands would more than likely not play metal.

[JACKROXYOU]

you really like tony dont ya

[Brew]

^Man, no-one ever listens to me when I make those points.

Its all true, Sabbath = Iommi, 'nuff said.

[JACKROXYOU]

ah lord brum speaks his genius

[Brew]

If I was feeling non-lazy I'd dig up one of my old rants about Iommi being Sabbath.

Meh, maybe later. :p

[JACKROXYOU]

iommi is kinda important

[sabbathfan37]

like brum and i just said, Iommi is black sabbath. Heck, Iommi is heavy metal.

[Brew]

I heard a quote the other day: ''Black Sabbath are hard rock, Judas Priest, now they're Heavy Metal!''

Pretty much says it all about who 'invented' Heavy Metal, the Brummie band that is: Judas Priest. Iommi just created hundreds of heavy riffs.


I'm off to sleep, night all :wave:

[kurt98]

like brum and i just said, Iommi is black sabbath. Heck, Iommi is heavy metal.
I agree that Iommi got black sabbath where they were in turns of "writing" music. But I deffinetly think Ozzy lifted them off the ground because of his natural energetic talent at gigs. Whatch a sabbath dvd and whatch Iommi, He does NOT move, Ozzy gets the crowd goin nuts.

Also take this into consideration, they did soo well with Ozzy, and when they got rid of Ozzy, Sabbath went downhill. And Ozzy made his own band and continued being huge.

[pigonthewing82]

I think Butler was the strongest member of Sabbath. I think his bass drove a lot of the songs. And I belive he wrote lyrics too.
(just my opinion.

[kurt98]

IMO I think they were all equal, noone really stood out. without bills fills, iommis solos, geezer's bass lines, or ozzy, they would be totally differnet

[pigonthewing82]

True they are one of the few perfect bands out there.

no Black Sabbath = Butler, Iommi, Ward, and Osbourne. that is the only Black Sabbath there will ever be.

[Riva]

(just my opinion.

Yes, Sabbath has one of the more recognisable bass lines of any band.

[rippa32]

And Iommi wasnt the only to create those riffs. Geezer had a huge part in that as well as his lyrics.
