Black Sabbath
This nOde last updated January 8th, 2006 and is
permanently morphing...
(13 Imix (Alligator) / 19 K'ank'in - 221/260 -
12.19.12.17.1)
progenitors of the
heavy metal meme. the original whole is greater than any of the
combinations of its parts. Ozzy's naive singing and poetic
lyrics. Iommi's bludgeoning riffs still hold power today.
the rhythm section is unparalleled exept maybe for Rush. before
they named it anything, then marketed and stereotyped to death, this
shit was called "acid rock". of course, as with most things
seventies, coke and other bad drugs imported by our govt. ruined
anything hallucinogenic (i.e. entheogenic), and cock rock heavy metal
egos were born. - @Om*

personal space/time
relevancy: s/t release in 1970 up through
_Sabbath Bloody Sabbath_, and one astonishing come back album _Heaven
And Hell_ in
1980 with Ronnie James
Dio's throat.

named after the film _Black Sabbath_ (vhs/ntsc)
1963 aka _Black Christmas_ aka _Three Faces Of
Fear_
A trio of atmospheric horror tales: "The
Telephone" A woman terrorized in her
apartment by phone calls from an escaped
prisoner
from her past; "The Wurdalak" - face: Boris Karloff - a Russian
count in the early 1800s who stumbles upon a family in the countryside
trying to destroy a particularly vicious line of
vampires; "The Drop of
Water" - a 1900-era nurse who makes a fateful
decision while preparing the corpse of one of her patients - an elderly
medium who died during a
seance.
formerly known as Earth
Members:
Toni Iommi - guitar
John Ozzy Osbourne - vocals
Terry Geezer Butler - bass
*(Geezer is a
vegetarian)
Bill Ward - drums
_Black Sabbath_ 12"
- (1970)
i imagine this was
genuinely frightening when it first came out. bluesy, sludgy, the
cover alone still terrifies. you got to remember that this was
before anything cheesy in metal came along. this was potent stuff.

covered by 1,000 Homo DJ's - sample: "practically
every one of the top 40 records being played on every radio station in
the united states, is a communication to the children - to take a trip,
to drop out, to
groove... the
psychedelic jackets on the record albums
have their own hidden symbols and messages as well as all the lyrics of
all the top rock songs, and they all sing the same refrain - it's fun
to take take a trip - put
acid
in your veins."

unbelievable. kind
of like a short two-minute _Yellow Submarine_ but totally rude
and sexually explicit - a horny ozzie getting it on with the locals
while geezer and toni come off as proper paul mccartney clones in their
speech. bill ward is portrayed as a grunting alcoholic. oh
yeah and their dog is called Doom Doom. - @Om* 2/7/02

Toni Iommi lost parts of
two fingers of his right hand in a work related accident, on the last
day of work. an album by Django Rienhardt, a
gypsy guitarist with two fingers on his fret
hand, gave him inspiration to continue playing.
