This site
This is the only fanlisting for Black Sabbath approved and listed by The Fanlistings Network. It opened in August 2007 and has been in my care since the beginning. The name of the site is of course a reference to their song Iron Man.
Black Sabbath is a band that means a lot to me personally, it was one of the first bands I listened to when I started getting into the metal music scene. I saw them live for the first and probably only time in my life in Stockholm in June 2005 with Ozzy Osbourne as lead singer.
Black Sabbath
Black Sabbath are an English heavy metal band from Birmingham. The original band line up of Ozzy Osbourne (vocals), Tony Iommi (guitar), Terence "Geezer" Butler (bass), and Bill Ward (drums) is the same as the current line up (2007) although there have been many shifts of personnel over the years.
Black Sabbath remain a dominant influence in the heavy metal genre they helped create. VH1's 100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock ranks them second, behind Led Zeppelin.
Currently, the early 1980s line-up of the band featuring Iommi, Butler, Ronnie James Dio and Vinny Appice are touring under the moniker Heaven and Hell, a title taken from the 1980 Black Sabbath album of the same name.
