A Hideous History
If you have a metalhead friend you might
have heard them say something like
this: “Yeah man, back in Medieval days the
Catholic Church outlawed it because they
thought it was evil and if you got busted
playing it they would cut off your head.
Brutal right?.” Well, that’s what mine says
anyway.

Making Metal
On their 1970 self-titled debut album, Black
Sabbath incorporated a tritone in the main
riff of their also self-titled track Black
Sabbath. It was a hook that would change
the way heavy music developed for years to
come and set the mood for the metal genre
as a whole, particularly subgenres leaning
to the side of doom. The initiative is
credited to guitarist Tony Iommi, who
despite not receiving classical training,
heard a certain phrase in a classical piece
that he just had to borrow.
