I think that was the Johnson govt? Was a while ago now? Or more recent? Can't find anything after 2021 myself

Stupid thought but BS's first two albums both came out within like 14 months of that song. Perhaps it was the kernel that got their sound together. I wonder if there are any recordings of Sabbath from before the release of that song...
If that song doesn't count, then I think you really do have to hand it to Black Sabbath as the defining progenitor of the genre. Even if it does, it was an impressive exploratory foray; Black Sabbath set up camp.
King Crimson's '21st century schizoid man' came out in '69, after the formation of black Sabbath but before their first album was released, and I think it has a decent claim to being a 'metal' song. There was definitely a vibe for that kind of musical experimentation around that time, although Black Sabbath can claim to be more defining of what 'metal' was.
Anyway yeah, agreed.
I worry that the prevalence of ill-informed hot-takes dilutes the validity of complaints, and I appreciate your work here

I can't speak to that, but the two films I did go see ('ironically' apparently with my gf and our mate) were atrocious, despite a strong Robert Patterson
The exceptions are when stuff really goes to shit.
Never patch sober. You're too emotional.
Through big chunks of my Saturday being sober was an exception.
Your move.
Ah. You know theory.
This is a very very good video. I loved the review of Atlas Shrugged
Oh wow that article's a blast from the past
