Re: Worst albums you've ever heard

Worst album I have ever heard? There are so many. One of the biggest disappointment for me has to be Demon - Commercial Dynamite It got good reviews. I can't understand why. The Demon made 4 classic albums. The Night Of The Demon (NWOBHM), The Unexpected Quest (NWOBHM), The Plaque (hard rock/prog), ...

So I finally watched The Decline of Western Civilisation Part II

My random thoughts: Nearly all the younger ones were completely idiots, no wonder most of them never made it. The veterans seemed to handle the interviews much better (Ozzy, G&P, Lemmy, Steven&Joe...) Even the drunk Holmes of W.A.S.P. seemed sympathetic compared to the giggling bimbos (both ...

Re: Can someone please explain me what is so good about War Pigs?

Honestly when I was first getting into Black Sabbath/metal it didn't do much for me. So I at least know where you're coming from. Sometimes a song is so hyped by the time you hear it, it can be disappointing. But I can appreciate it is a well crafted song. It's still not my go to when it comes to S...

Re: Can someone please explain me what is so good about War Pigs?

It's one of Black Sabbath's best songs. What really makes is work is the swing feel on the drums during the heavy guitar breakdown, a juxtaposition not often heard either before or after. It both rocks and grooves, and the whole thing works despite Ozzy's pretty simplistic melody. Lyrics do feel a ...

Can someone please explain me what is so good about War Pigs?

While I like Black Sabbath I really cannot understand why War Pigs is considered being such a classic. It is a boring song and it does not get better with the age. It sounds dated both lyrically and sound wise. My guess is that the song was intended to be some kind of Black Sabbath pastiche to the V...

Exciter may be the best song by Kiss. Good solo also.
