this stuff didn't get played on the radio back in the 70's, when i was a little kid, but i remember hearing it blaring out of a car or house or something, and man, the heavy low sound was, for me, impossible not to like. no internet back then, so when you're 7 or 8, you just gotta keep your ears open until you hear someone playing this stuff, and ask them who it is. no way in the mid seventies was my mom and dad going to buy me, a little kid, a Black Sabbath album, lol. they did score me Kiss Alive! when i was 11, so it was all good after that.

This whole album is just great and it just cements the fact that Sabbath were the most important metal pioneers

And to think that was in 1971 - unheard of sound. Those albums literally inventing & drawing the blueprint of heavy metal as we know it to this day. And it's still badass too lol

Despite all the advances in metal and technology over the years, it never really got much heavier than Sabbath. Faster? Sure. More aggressive? Sure. More technical? Sure. But you take a band like Cannibal Corpse, and they don't make me feel anything at all. That's not heavy. I'd suggest "Dawn Of Megiddo" by Celtic Frost for about as truly heavy as it gets.

Great reaction. This album was my first exposure to Sabbath when I was 14. Loved them ever since.

Soundgarden actually did a pretty fantastic cover of this song where they ended up changing some of the lyrics. It's pretty amazing how great Cornell sounds on the track....even sounds like Ozzy at some points on the track.

Lex REALLY gets it. This is nasty riffage, tanks plowing through mud vibes. Brad, this is exactly the kind of metal song I knew you'd like. This is why I keep pushing for a"Metal For Brad Stream". I guarantee that you would find "Albatross" by C.O.C. to be one of your favorite metal songs so far.

Lex is a magical creature! She literally became the music. Gets it in every way. Fascinating to watch!

Gotta love it, you think you are going on a trip with Sabbath and all of a sudden they take a HARD LEFT and you are going somewhere else !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lex instinctively makes MetalFace at 2:15, a most MetalFace worthy part. Lex, once again, showing us she genuinely Feelz The Noize. *Bonus points for the big smile at "everywhere is misery and woe".* A couple more points for the pure joy at 6:46 - "There's so much METAL going on!"

I'm 50 but all my cousins were 8 yrs. or more older than me , I got to listen to everything from the 60s and early 70s when I was a kid . Metal Head since I can remember .

This album is one of there later ones and they were expanding their range! LOVE THIS BAND!!!

Love that Lex is groovin on the music/beat and Brad is checking out the lyrics for the meaning. I still love listening to these classic albums.

I can't help but feel like having a peek into Lex's mind would be like a serious acid trip; her musical metaphors are something else 😂

If there was ever a Black Sabbath song that never got enough attention is Megalomania off the Sabotage album. I really think you will like it! It’s a mood song of the first order.

Tommy Iommi is The Riff Master! You gotta try "Electric Funeral" !

Awesome! One of my favorites of Black Sabbath. Another favorite is Under The Sun. Such amazing riffs and sweet switch ups.

Hahaha!!! Probably the best description of the song I've ever heard. "On the scale of nasty riffs, that was disgusting " hahaha. Brilliant

These guys were one of the pioneers of bluesy metal back in the days. Influenced grunge metal and grunge punk bands in the future. Slower and heavy thick distortions. Lex is correct about Doc Marten boots! That came with grunge style in the future jaja.

This entire album is killer, heavy metal origins right here. Some of the heaviest riffs on this album.

Here I am letting Lex put a smile on my face again. So glad you guys checked this tune out. It's the prototype for SO MUCH music from the last 50 years.

You guys got to do Snowblind next, Bill Ward killed it with his jazz influenced drumming. Along with Geezer Butlers bass and the Rift Master himself firing on all cylinders!!

This album was the Holy Grail for every male teen to own in the late 70's early 80's. I had this album and would play it during lunch in sixth grade, right in the lunchroom💜

Makes me think of when l was Young that’s when this album came out l was a teenager jeans t shirts leather jackets smoking pot and hash going to concerts listening to great music with head phones on my whole life ahead of me That was Fifty years ago where has all the time gone.

Black Sabbath "Master of Reality" is a fantastic album loaded with hits: "Sweet Leaf", "Children of the Grave", "After Forever", "Lord of this World", "Into the Void". Cancer Bats do a great cover of "Into the Void", you should check it out as well.

I don't have many vinyl records but I do have Master on vinyl. Had to get it when I saw it in a record store one day. I lost the cd I got for my Walkman when I was kid. One of my all time favorites

Iommi is the riff master, and this was one of his best. And whole Master of Reality had the greatest sludge sound.

Very ahead of it's time nothing sounded like this at the time. The Godfather of What became Heavy Metal. Well Sabbath Motorhead and Judas Priests

My favorite BS song. Heaviest riff ever.

i think this is their best song and it is one of the absolute best songs ever by any band - that good. Your reactions were priceless - thank you for a great video!

The solo in Warning is devastating, Tony going totally into new territory for the time and one of the greatest solos in Rock History! If you do it start with Bit of Finger and Sleeping Village, which seamlessly flow into Warning. Enjoy! 🎸

This song is just as relevant today, as the day it was written, just like all of their other songs. Timeless.

Sabbath had a Rhythm Section that was just on like any other. The beat and the Rhythm did pulsate and waiver here in there with its own sort of Crazy Life. Not in the distracting way, but it just had an energy that was very unique to these musicians. This is my favorite Sabbath song, for my favorite Sabbath album.

So glad you played this classic!

This album is definitely the most sludgy. The feel this record is awesome! There’s a lot of creepyness to it

This is my favorite Sabbath song. A classic in every way. All Hail Sabbath!!!!

You’ve got to love that, groovy, swing, jazz rhythm 🥁 that Bill Ward and Geezer Butler lay down in this track and appreciate Tony Iommie epic riff work as well.

*Zeppelin and Sabbath...they both were far ahead of the pack in relation to ROCK bands at the time.

I used to sing this one in a garage band back in the day. It was one of our better ones. Thanks, cats.

What a classic tune. Just one of the classic albums us kids used to rock to back in the hood in Toronto. Early 1970’s was our time to shine. I can smell the black hash burning now.

An older cousin introduced me to Paranoid, went out and bought Sold Our Souls For Rock n Roll the next day, and a metalhead was born, changed my life!

It's a different energy said Brad referring to the vocals. Yes that was part of Sabbath's talent they could produce so many different feelings and moods within their songs.

Another one of my favorite Black Sabbath songs, this kicks off the album Masters of Reality!!! And this song opens up with Mr. Tony Iommi’s fantastic heavy metal guitar number five GOAT on my list!!🎸🎸

Enjoy you both very much! This is my favorite Sabbath song - great choice! You can't go wrong. This is heavy! \m/\m/

Best metal band of all time. Actually the creators of metal..

Detuned guitar and bass (down three semitones from E to C#) and a relatively slow (100bpm), satisfying song... and so many metal tropes borrowed from blues and reforged as pure metal... alternating the fifth with chromatic motion from the octave through the sevenths, with a flatted fifth along the way, but never forgetting the root... such a NASTY hook, crawling up from the abyss only to slide back down in a seemingly Sisyphean effort... several times before being loaded onto the riff train with its insistent chug with a quirky bend/release at the end... this is the birth of doom metal and the death metal that followed. I can't recall any examples of songs with guitars - especially with a heavy tone - using such a low tuning before Sabbath. You might catch people tuning to Drop D or D# but that was about it, until Tony. Extended range (7 and 8 string) guitars and drop tunings have pushed the envelope since then, but at the time, Sabbath at C# was a revelation. The low tuning is partly a result of Tony Iommi's industrial accident. He experimented with slackening the strings to make it easier to play, but I guess they ultimately liked the sound.

Happy to have lived until now to see a description of Black Sabbath riffs by Lex. I still love them more. This is one of the songs that paved the way for "sludge", a metal genre (EyeHateGod, Sleep, Acid Bath...)

"Doc Martins walking in sand" is a pretty accurate description of grunge music which is derived from this.

My fave Sab Jam Ever. Lyrics are on point. My Fave Sab Album as a whole.

NOW....you're ready for "Supernaut" and "Symptom of the Universe".

I used to have this LP, hot off the press! Freakin’ Amazing! We were so spoiled as teens, didn’t even realize it! It was everywhere, such a luxury 🫶🏼❣️

This whole album you need to lay in bed , close your eyes and simply mellow out... will change your life... People can't believe you can enjoy Black sabbath so much but this album is just simply amazing.

My favorite Black Sabbath. 1st time I heard it I accidentally walked into traffic. Decided to listen to the rest when I got home.

The bass makes this song! That’s what makes heavy metal what it is 🤘🏻

¡ Gracias chicos por hacerle tanto honor a mis Black Sabbath ! 🙏🙏🙏

My first concert... Sabbath Bloody Sabbath tour, Chicago Stadium, 1974. There went almost ten years of my life I barely remember, lol.

This song is a great example of Black Sabbath being the fathers of metal music.

I had the honor of seeing the Sabbath on their The End World Tour, front row floor seats. Nothing will ever match the heaviness of this song live. It was like being swallowed alive by doom.
