lawrocket 3 #26 January 17, 2010 I think you are right. But I also think there are other grandfathers. Sabbath and Zeppelin are easy to point to. I can also make the argument for bands like Slade. Crue just went all out in putting n a show. And some hard music. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jcd11235 0 #32 January 17, 2010 QuoteI would say the granddaddy of all metal bands was undoubtedly Black Sabbath. Agreed. I remember an interview with Ozzy in which he talked about the band (at that time they were a blues rock band called Earth, IIRC) seeing a poster for the movie Black Sabbath, w/ Boris Karloff, and the band thought it was outrageous that people would pay good money to see a movie designed to scare the hell out of them. The band had their new name, and the concept of horror rock was born. The band changed their name and style, and the rest is history. (Apparently their name for their new genre didn't stick.)Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSE 5 #33 January 18, 2010 Never liked Crue much at all after Shout At The Devil, but they gave birth to Monster Circus and Steel Panther, so kudos are owed there. (Warning, the Steel Panther video is NSFW. Lyrics are raunchy). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thanatos340 1 #34 January 18, 2010 Crue was good band (Shout at the Devil was a GREAT album) But when it comes to the best Metal Band Ever.. Sorry but Iron Maiden immediately comes to mind. Rock is broad a Category to pick any one band as the best ever. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DSE 5 #41 January 18, 2010 Quote I'm sorry but Steel Panther a friggin HILARIOUS You clearly have an "untrained ear" because they are very serious about their music. "Community Property" lyrics are different on the CD than on the video. I think they couldn't get "cock" on the radio, so "dong" had to suffice. Between "Eatin' ain't Cheatin' (Sucking ain't Fuckin')" and "Fat Girls," my culture quotient has been fulfilled for a while. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunately far to many who came to the party late simply don't get that Ozzy is not Sabbath. Iommi is Sabbath..the continuing triumph of style over substance blinds them from the truth.____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

tigra 0 #45 January 19, 2010 Quote I hope you saw Metallica with Ozzie at the R&R hall of fame concert. You could really tell how much they enjoyed playing IRON MAN I think they had more issues sharing the stage with someone so "over medicated." I thought Metallica was great at that show. Ozzie, on the other hand???? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
