My how times have changed. The big four are Metallica, Anthrax, Megadeth, and Slayer? Notice the special guests part: a group called "Heaven and Hell"...Its the members of some obscure group called Black Sabbath...They started all this "heavy metal" stuff. Vinnie Appice has a brother named Carmine... Let's just say Carmine was kinda good.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mubB20PUXLk&feature=related
Holy Shit. times have changed alright. But Black Sabbath may be one of the pivotal bands for the genre and certainly their contributions are legendary... but the roots of Heavy Metal are in Led Zep.
Yes, of course. Who doesn't like Black Sabbath? Let's just not forget all those who came before. For instance; Deep Purple.
