5982. Coven - Black Sabbath
 |
| From: Witchcraft Destroys Minds & Reaps Souls; Year: 1969; Genre: Hard Rock/Psychedelic Rock |
I guess since today is Halloween I should probably get with the program and pick something appropriate.
Coven is one of the earliest bands to embrace the dark, "satanic" lyrics and imagery that would define much of the hard rock/metal genres ever since; still it is rather interesting to think that their most noted and biggest hit song was One Tin Soldier, which was quite different from their style.
Anyway, Black Sabbath is the first track from their debut album and actually was released a year prior to the debut album and song of the same title by the band Black Sabbath. As always, for me, Jinx Dawson's powerful vocals are the main draw, but the music is also quite good to boot.
