wasn’t a record breaking album when it was first released. Clark (2022) explains, the album paved the way for the band’s domination of heavy metal throughout the 70s, as well as the eventual rise of the bands following like Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Pantera and Slipknot. Heavy metal was born, shaped, and defined: on the albums Black Sabbath released during the 1970s. Much attention is paid to the band's historic first two albums, and rightfully so.

“Only an atheist can be a good Christian; only a Christian can be a good atheist.” This quote from Ernest Bloch summarizes Friedrich Nietzsche’s parable of the madman in one sentence. If a sophomore theology major can be taken by surprise at the fact that Friedrich Nietzsche was not a Christian, this either speaks virtuously of Nietzsche’s legacy or poorly of this student’s intuition. Upon an initial personal reflection, the mindset of Nietzsche could be defended as compatible to the a-theistic pyro-theology

case. In a community blinded by stereotypes three boys, from West Memphis, Arkansas, we’re wrongly accused for the gruesome murders of three eight-year-old boys. Based on views held purely by stereotypes, including the fact that they listened to Metallica and read Stephen King, the three outcasts were wrongly accused of murder. All sentenced to life, with the exception of Damien Echols the supposed ringleader, the boys’ thought their lives were over at the age of eighteen. Which would have been true

One song that is one of my favorites is “For Whom The Bell Tolls” by Metallica. That song is one of my favorite songs because I remember when my brother played it in front of me, and i loved it. That was the first song to get me into hard rock/metal. Another favorite song of mine is “Painkiller” by Judas Priest. After a boring

METAL. A sharp edge We all know the sound, enormous arenas packed with people who come to hear the distorted guitars, aggressive and sometimes violent lyrics, and fast drum beats. This is metal, by far the most controversial genre of music in America.

status as a legend. They were over before they could burn out. They were still at the height of their career and that was a huge driving force in their continued success. Rock bands tend to fizzle out when their careers go on too long. For example, Metallica faced major success in the 1980s and 90s. They didn’t follow the “quit while you’re ahead” rule, and their music suffered for it. While Led Zeppelin and other bands and artists that suffered similar fates, such as Nirvana and Amy Winehouse, are tragic

century. It is because of this I have few favorites and that I am open to experiencing new and hopefully amazing things. I was brought up in the 70’s because my parents raised me in the environment they were. Raised listening to music similar to Metallica, Queen, and Jonny Cash, played on the Atari before a handheld game system, and because of this I grew up with a very unique experience. I enjoy all that music to this day, but I eventually developed my own tastes. Musicians such as Twenty One Pilots

Punk Rock returned rock & roll to the basics -- three chords and a simple melody. It just did it louder and faster and more abrasively than any other rock & roll in the past. The Ramones were part of this “Punk” music era of the 70s. Their self-titled first album released in April of 1976. Ramones stripped away two decades of musical experimentation and left behind the “pure clarity of industrial-strength rock” (Runtagh, 2016).
