An alternative (and occasional) music posting highlighting something out of the ordinary. Perhaps of limited appeal, unconventional, experimental or just far-out ! Call it what you like (or switch it off, if you don't like). 

Another big show this last weekend in Birmingham saw Black Sabbath play what was billed, along with the title 'Back to the Beginning' and an all-star cast, as their last ever show. We will see ....

Time for this song originally from their second album released in 1970. It's an anti-war protest song and bassist and lyricist Geezer Butler says "it's about how these rich politicians and rich people start all the wars for their benefit and get all the poor people to die for them" - sound familiar ?

I heard it the other day and thought the guitar and drum playing towards the end sounded brilliant, so had to post it. Considered the greatest ever Heavy Metal song and one of the group's best tracks, this is 'War Pigs' >
