t. "I'm not like the other dadrockers"

I agree

>>75166708
Black Sabbath, a highly influential band, further deteriorated the degree of skills required for playing hard-rock, but their distorted and booming riffs, their monster grooves, their martial rhythms, their monotonous singing and their horror themes, that evoked the vision of a futuristic medieval universe, laid the foundations for black metal and doom-metal. Melody and any instrumental prowess were negligible components of their most typical works, Paranoid (1971) and Master Of Reality (1971). They were not the inventors of gothic music, but they were the first to turn it into a genre.

>>75166718
The fact that so many books still name the Beatles as "the greatest or most significant or most influential" rock band ever only tells you how far rock music still is from becoming a serious art. Jazz critics have long recognized that the greatest jazz musicians of all times are Duke Ellington and John Coltrane, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Classical critics rank the highly controversial Beethoven over classical musicians who were highly popular in courts around Europe. Rock critics are still blinded by commercial success. The Beatles sold more than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore they must have been the greatest. Jazz critics grow up listening to a lot of jazz music of the past, classical critics grow up listening to a lot of classical music of the past. Rock critics are often totally ignorant of the rock music of the past, they barely know the best sellers. No wonder they will think that the Beatles did anything worthy of being saved.

Not liking the Beatles is the most Contrarian thing you can do

>>75166872
Liking the Beatles is contrarian on this board because they're such boring entry level trite. How do you honestly listen to the Beatles? Their songs lose their value after just a couple listens, and after hearing them played to death everywhere for decades now, they are well beyond annoying.
I seriously don't get how someone can unironically sit down and think
>I'm gonna play an ENTIRE Beatles album to my ears today in one sitting
Possibly the worst way to waste a half hour of your life.

>>75166718
It's weird how the Beatles are the only "Influential" band in the mainstream
Throbbing gristle were a massive influence on industrial, synth pop, electronic music in general
King Crimson all but invented the concept of progressive rock
Sugar Hill Gang invented hop hop
Etc and etc
But all these artists are rarely discussed and covered the way the Beatles are
Yes I am aware these bands are discussed in large, but there's no Joy Division station on the radio, there aren't people devoting their entire careers to Chuck Berry and Link Wray and Jello Roll Morton and there's just no influential band that gets even close to the same attention as the Beatles
Just my 0.02, feel free to reply with whatever you want

>Possibly the worst way to waste a half hour of your life.
hey, this isn't a Beach Boys thread

>>75166708
>kek, OP thinks a shit derivative version of the cream is the best band ever.

The cream invented black sabbath.

>>75166995
Who cares who came first? What's more important is who did it better, and Sabbath easily beats Cream.

>>75166954
Now that's an example of a band that did Sunshine pop right. Their songs actually hold up after the first listen and have many layers of depth to be discovered with subsequent listens. Their albums are crafted as one cohesive thought, so there's actually a reason to listen to the whole thing. The only Beatles album that you could say you need to listen to an entire album for is Sgt. Peppers. Once you've heard a couple Beatles songs, you've heard them all.

>>75166995
>muh cream invented sabbath
So?

>>75167022
Prove it anon.

>Pro tip: youre a shill

Cream are more loved influential technically better and with better pop tunes than sabbath ever were.

>>75167083
Cream fucking sucks
Clapton sucks
Go jerk off to your shitty blues dadrock somewhere else

>>75167110
And who the fuck are you. Sabbath is far worse dadrock.

Sabbath cant even play ginger baker jack bruce and eric shillton were all GOATs in their fields.

>>75167083
> better pop tunes
Sabbath isn't a pop band lmao. Black Sabbath set the foundation for metal and hard rock, what has Cream done again?

>>75167083
Ginger is the only good musician in this band.

>>75167145
If gingerr is the only good one sabbath have none. No cream invented hardrock jewfag. Cream were far more versatile and sorry but black sabbath is a pop band. Paranoid is a pop tune.

>>75167183
You are so stupid that you cannot even quote me correctely. What a joke.

>>75167183
> Paranoid is a pop tune
Are you drunk? Paranoid is blues/prog rock straight up

>>75167183
I tell you to end your life
I wish I could but it's too late

>>75167226
Its their lead single its a pop tune and did well. It was marketed.

>>75167285
Black Sabbath never had a charting single with Ozzy prior to 13.

>>75167285
>it was marketed
Oh, thanks, captain obvious

>>75167257
Youre just a stupid ass. Listen to cream live. Crossroads, sunshine for your love, toad, rollin and tumblin, born under a bad sign, spoonful, outside woman blues. Cream invented hard rock along with the who and invented all the early 70s metal.

>>75167307
Still designed to be pop.

>>75167337
>invented all the early 70s metal
No, Led zeppelin did this.

>>75166708
Great, meaty riffs. Definitely a contender.
>>75166718
Tried to hard to be sophisticated like classical music and failed at getting even close to that while completely watering down what makes rock music good. Influential, but mainly just to the shitty aspects of pop music.
>>75166754
Not enough heaviness and riffing; not even close.
>>75166995
Cream has Clapton's dumb as shit wank all over it, and they were nowhere near as creative nor heavy from a riffing perspective.

>>75167361
Urghhh no, the who invented led zepellin. Led zepellin just stole shit from people. Led zepellin was soft shit. Just a poppy sabbath

>>75167362

Nah far more creative and live was where its at. The who and cream pooneered the equipment.

>>75167419
So? What the hell these shits that are you saying have to do with the fact that they invented the early 70 heavy metal material?

The Who and Cream are the blandest, most boring of the dadrock bands
kys

>>75167463
Exactly. The who have just one album that is good, the others are shit.

>>75167443
Not at all. Cream was too busy playing the stuff in a generic Blues style with wanky solos. They didn't even pioneer the equipment gtfo.

>>75167083
Cream were good but they never made an album as good or as infuental as Sabbath's first four albumd

>>75167463
No they fucking intellectual stalwarts. Black sabbath were seen as trash and just made trash genres

>>75167555
Simply not true

>>75167555
They were the first to use it. And you dont know what you talking about because cream dont sound like generic blues.

>>75167476
They have atleast 4 top albums. All bette lr than black sabbaths. Paranoid is good first one decent but derivative master of reality boring as fuck

>>75167855
It is 100% true. You haven't cited anything specific either, just said "they innovated". That's it.

>>75166718
Beatles more like Mediocretles xD

>>75167882
>>75167855
Your argumentation is fucking pathetic. You are just saying that these bands are better than sabbath without any reason.

Jesus christ Cream poster kys. Black Sabbath is leagues above that garbage generic le acid blues xD band.

Besides Blue Cheer invented Black Sabbath not Cream, and what matters is Black Sabbath took that influence and made a whole genre out of it.

Here is an argument that Van Halen is, in fact, more influential than BS. Not sure I buy it but he does make some great points

http://thequietus.com/articles/23095-van-halen-the-band-the-velvet-underground-could-only-dream-of-being

>>75168605
He does make a few good points but at the end of the day this is just one man's opinion.

If you like black Sabbath, check out ORB. They're on flightless, same label as king gizz. They're pretty cool.
