Welcome to the first episode of the Heavy Metal History Podcast!

In our first episode we talk about the band that started it all, Black Sabbath! We go in depth of the bands start of their career between the years 1970-1975, their recording process for each album as well as interesting and little known facts about the band.

While maybe not the exact beginnings of Heavy Metal, Black Sabbath truly pushed the sonic boundaries of sound and shaped the way the genre would evolve and grow. Throughout the 70’s the band was an absolute power house in terms of writing, recording and touring. This cemented their legacy long before anyone in the band would realize it. Their output in the bands first 5 years see’s easily the some of the bands most well known and prolific work. I attempt to dissect and go behind the scenes of the making of each one of these albums to tell the history of the genres biggest fore fathers.
