Wait, if you aren't familiar with Black Sabbath's discography, why are you the one most persistant and confident in this argument? Perhaps it wouldn't be wrong for you to get your hands on Sabbath Bloody Sabbath and Sabotage and see it for yourself, no?
 
You simply should not judge Black Sabbath by Paranoid, Iron Man or War Pigs or whatever other popular songs they have. For a comparison, it's like if you asked me if I thought Yes and Genesis were worthy of inclusion in PA and I would say "Are them the bands that played "I Can't Dance" and "Owner Of A Lonely Heart"? I played these on my keyboard, they definitely aren't prog, NO WAY!" A stupid example, but you should have understood what I mean by now.

ClapThumbs Up

As much as I love BS and admit they had their proggy moments, I wouldn't put them in any "Proto-Prog-Metal" category. I absolutely agree about the mighty "Master of Puppets", and possibly also about its predecessor, "Ride the Lightning". And what about Priest's "Sad Wings of Destiny"?

Thumbs Up


I think that that album might qualify as "Proto-Prog-Power-Metal" ... Wink
