After making that comment, I went and compared first album dates with other bands I thought came out at a similar time, and sabbath was 5 or 10 yrs ahead of them. And Ive no idea when Earth got started. But yea King Crimson and some hippy rock who were getting a little heavier where the only big names I saw listed as metal in 1970.
I stand by he didnt invent it singlehandly, but dam if anyone else could contend for title of Grandfather of metal. I made it to a few ozzfeasts in the late 90s early 00s, great time. He fucking rocked.
My only complaint here is like, can we not get a dedicated back rest? Then again if we are full squat instead of a seat, we probably aren't staying any longer than is
No one person has ever invented a genre of music. Dont get me wrong, I won't argue against calling him the grandad of metal or whatever it is, but he INVENTED heavey metal? Fucking insane take.
I dont love them, or ever even hit play on them myself, but that is true of a lot, if not most good music. And when I hear them on the radio, yea, its def not bad music.
Ahhh, and here I thought the dumb name was just to make people feel better about eating an entire cake in one sitting. But you have an even better point
