One of the best Anti-War songs by one of the best bands ever.

One of the harshest anti-war songs ever written. Back when it came out, the `establishment` if you will, criticized this song as being satanic, because it mentions witches and Satan. They were full of crap. They knew exactly what that song was about and they didn't like the connotation one bit.

"Hand of Doom" by Black Sabbath is one of their best, it has a great groove.

I'm so glad I hit you with this mind blowing band. I saw this song performed Live 1970. No other group is anything like the original HEAVY METAL band.

This was their anti war song over 50 years ago. Just as relevant today.

EVERY SONG ON THE "PARANOID " album is A BANGER !!!!. I was 16 in 71 .4 years before the Vietnam War ended. I saw them in the fall of 71 , a life changing experience.

Your grasp of lyrics and meaning of songs is impressive...The Wall...no interruptions...life changing

Yeah, 50 years later and this song is still so relevant today!

My fav is "The Wizard"... you'll see why.

Ozzy .... recognized as one of the greatest hard rock and heavy metal singers of all time.

I highly recommend Hand of Doom, and Fairies wear boots.

Black Sabbath - Snowblind

Notice how the Bass plays along with the guitar.

We need more songs like this in today's music, one of my favorite rock songs

Man, the sound quality of the music you react to is some of the best I've heard from a reaction channel. Wow, keep up the good work.

I'm so happy you didn't choose the fan-made video! Bill Ward beating that kit like it owes him money!

Perfect 'stink face' reaction timing to the first high note Tony hits! 🤌 I trust no reacter that doesn't have that.....😂

In the words of Country Joe McDonald at Woodstock "If you want to stop wars and stuff you've got to sing LOUD !!!"

Nicely done, JM. The 3 guys in Black Sabbath had extended periods of brilliance. I did not see them until 1978. In one 7 day stretch I saw Foreigner open for Van Halen and The Cars opening for Black Sabbath, in Jacksonville, FL. In the week prior I saw Rick Derringer w/special gues Edgar Winter - twice. Good times!

Ozzie on a wicked-evil sounding Harmonica to start the song gives the feeling.... Something Evil Comes This Way.... "The Wizard"

A Masterpiece. the speed up at the end is the world imploding

The drums sound like machine gun fire and bombs dropping.

The entire “Paranoid” album is full of bangers! Not a single bad song on it. If you ever do full album reactions, you gotta start with “Dark Side of the Moon” and then “Paranoid’!!!

Geezer and Bill killin' it , as always. Glad you did not watch that distracting video but lemme tell ya , this song live Paris 1970 is worth a reaction. Hope you get to it.

That album cover is most appropriate. When Black Sabbath hit the world they set it on FIRE. Just imagine what the churches thought. I was only 14 years old and remember what I thought... Music is never going to be the same again... I was right.

6:22 I have to smile because I know what's coming...:)..Not bad for guitar, bass, drums and vocals...Sab head since 1975 and never stopped loving them...Sab till I die...

I grew up with this song. No concept of what metal was, just my father picking me up in his 18-wheeler and rocking out to Sabbath and Dio.

I was watching One Hit Wonders from the 60's... Here are two with outstanding vocals and a great tune... Brooklyn Bridge - "Worst That Could Happen" and... The Spiral Staircase - "More Today Than Yesterday"

…..great reaction to an iconic track from Iommi/Osbourne 🔥🎸🔥☠️

Hand of doom

They brought in metal.

As much war as I dealt with, I wish people could speak to one another instead of taking young man’s lives one way or another. God bless you young men

Another Simply Brilliant Analysis Comments, as usual, as expected, I just smile. Thanks again.

I am listening to Death Metal but even compared to it this stuff still feels powerfull and heavy. They have achieved the ultimate metal greatness in the 1970.

2nd Hand of Doom . A amazing song.

The greatest band for war

Oh my lord the soul of BLACK SABBATH IS HERE

The Sabbath rabbit hole is filled with great music.

When this album came out, it took hours just to get it, get home and listen to it.

Gotta love the Klaxon sirens in the beginning. So nasty/dirty and indicative of the horror to come.

oh snap now you need to give Black Sabbath Hand Of Doom if you like this you will Love Hand Of Doom thanks and keep doing what you do keeping GREAT music ALIVE

Another Classic Rock 3 Man Band that has several huge songs like this one...... Grand Funk Railroad - Closer To Home (I'm Your Captain)

Hard hitting truths. Got to watch this live. Incredible tallent

Sweet leaf gotta be next ! Then snowblind 😼

This is one of the first albums I ever bought. Think I was 16. I still have the original vinyl and it sounds SOOO much better then any CD! 🤘🤘🤘

Classic! Hey jm. I'd love to see your reaction to a great but little known Elton John tune titled INDIAN SUNSET. tells a story about the end of the Native American's fight against the European conquerors.

Yes, Hand of Doom is great but it needs to be backed up by Rat Salad (it's a continuation & drum solo).

This one of 5 or 6 songs that are perfect . Then again what do I know.

Black Sabbath 1968-eternity🤘

Ozzie's Vocals.... One of those guys you know from the first word who it is... you know the names of those artist.

sabbath was ahead of their time..

Talking about the Industrial War complex. The idea that war s are started mostly for profit.

I always thought that John "Bonzo" Bonham got his powerful technique from Bill Ward... and many others. He set the table many fed off of.

Nothing was heavier than this in 1971.

Great job! I suggest Black Sabbath's Symptom of the Universe in a lyric video.

Music was so much deeper in the 70s then now, you could literally feel the emotion in just the instrumentals alone

that bill ward, just wow

Lmao...more likes than veiws.....firee....but they missing out frfr ❤ fire song.....fire reaction the whole package

The Wizard / Sabbath Bloody Sabbath / Fairies Wear Boots / Sweet Leaf / End of the beginning / God is dead

Takes you on a ride

Looking for Today next bruv,you’ll love it.

Live version was great,total commitment

Awesomeness!!!

This is so Wickerman

I approve of this!

They do leave an imprint on you the first time you hear them. The first time I listened to them in the mid 70s it kinda scared me. I'd never heard music like that before. I love their early stuff with the original lineup like in this tune. I think my favorite tunes are Paranoid and Fairies Wear Boots.

The wizard black sabbath 1 best album

First visit. Great job!

Reverend!! 🍄🌲🍄💥✨🌈

I'd stick with the Paranoid album for now since you've done a couple of them. Most of my favorite Sabbath songs don't really have such heavy meaning. It's usually more about the music and the delivery than the lyrics. You already did Iron Man so you probably get what I'm saying.

One of President HW Bush favorite Ozzy Osbourne song and a fan. Go figure. Lol

Try Gary Richraft flying turkey trot live REO Speed wagon best guitar solo ever

Subbed!

H@LL YEAH

Listen to hand of doom

One of the truly great anti-war songs.

🖤🖤🖤

Do you mean just like today?

Great reaction to a classic anti-war anthem. With NATO hellbent on out-escalating Putin in Ukraine, and the accompanying daily increased risk of Things Suddenly Spinning Out of Control so that the last thing most of us see will be the FLASH in the distance, I'd say this is a pretty timely song. Actually, what's awesome AND shitty about this song is that it never gets old...

have you reacted to 'war' by edwin starr' yet?

🤘🍺✌️

what the Song gets wrong. Sometimes the War Pigs are the public.....

Later rendition of Black Sabbath was Heaven and Hell with RJD. Equally superb. Check it out.

If gods exist? Ozzy is one!
