He invented Metal
>>129049202Blacks invented everything
>>129049202that's weird since he didn't play metal
>>129049202John Lennon accidentally discovered feedback while recording 'I Feel Fine'. That's when metal was invented. That's when Hendrix was invented. Great guitarist though.
>>129049202but he played psych not metal
>>129049202
Black Sabbath invented metal. There isn't a single jimi hendrix song that sounds anything close to metal. If this isn't bait, please show me what song of his you think influenced metal.
Jefferson Airplane invented metal
DNA of metal was already in Hendrix’s and didn’t invent only feedback... Sabbath came later, but Hendrix had already shown how heavy music could sound. They codified it, sure, but Hendrix made the guitar scream first Sabbath and the rest only existed because he shattered an era of gentle, almost acoustic playing with a new, brutal intensity.
Wagner invented metal
>>129049202He invented being the token black
>>129049591Na nigga it was Debussy
>>129049281usually spanish castle magic is mentioned as such a song
He invented Metal.
You Really Got Me Now was the first real rocker, and hard rock was basically metal anyways
>>129049281purple haze, if 6 was 9, voodoo child slight return
>>129049202he invented cool
>>129049901oh and my generation was the first punk song, easily
>>129049901>the first real rockerNo, it was Milk Cow Blues Boogie
>>129049905yeah voodoo chile especially has a flow to it much like a metal song, also>>129049281led zeppelin released their first record before sabbaths first which had Good Times Bad Times, Dazed and Confused, and How Many More Times which all had early elements of metal
>>129049366which song? don't you want somebody to love? or some lesser discussed song
>>129049202Cream did it before him, and so did the Yardbirds.
>>129049398i think you could argue the more rocking Who and Kinks songs beat hendrix to the punch
Honestly it was Dick Dale.
>>129049991>Honestly it was Dick Dale.This.There's a weirdly underdiscussed fact that metal and the later heavier forms of rock music have far more in common with instrumental guitar music than they do with early 60s 'rock groups'. Tony Iommi's favorite guitarist was Hank Marvin from the Shadows for example.Instrumental guitar music was incredibly popular in the 50s and 60s, including surf rock like Dick Dale in that, and yet no one seems to talk about how much of a big deal it was. I'm assuming part of this is because music critics never mentioned it.
>>129050014The Fender Dual Showman (100 watt head, 15" speaker cabinets) built to Dale's specs so he could play big halls was the first monster guitar amp (or at least the most successful one). Equipment matters as much as anything to heavy music.
>>129049202I mean he definitely played a massive part in influencing the distorted guitar and flashy solo / riff driven style of early metal and definitely influenced early metal guitarists like Iommi (Who was also deeply influenced by acts like Cream), but to say he "invented" metal is just false lol
>>129049963White Rabbit is the song I had in mind
>>129049366Lmao if this isnt a joke then the people on here truly are retarded
If this guy didn't just sing about cocaine & wahwah spam pentatonic box scales, zoomers migth actually have appreciated him
posting ratthew one of jannies
>>129049905Nothing metal about any of those, hemdrix yourself
>>129049991>>129050014I'm gonna have to go with Link Wray on this one guys>>129049991
>>129049959>early elements of metalThat's not the same thing as actual metal, though.
The thing is, metal isn't just a sound, it's also the subject mater, specifically teen angst, war, drugs and occult. A riff-based distorted song with lyrics about butterflies and rainbows isn't metal.
>>129051393tell that to Dio
I LIKE SMOKE AND LIGHTNING...
>>129051393>and rainbows isn't metal.
>>129049268Who is this zest pest?
>>129050899>ratthewDo you mean Matthew or are you calling him a rat?
>>129049202Black Sabbath invented metal.
>>129049591>>129049661Actually Bach invented metal
>>129049281>There isn't a single jimi hendrix song that sounds anything close to metal.Orly? the year 1968 says otherwise.https://youtu.be/pwfTqgrFumk?list=PLUyqzejg3LA2JqrX3R9dYGGVatEkObGLk
bloop
>>129049202I think the same The soul of metal comes from him
>>129049202He did not.
>>129049202Real heavy metal as it is understood today didn't occur until the NWOBHM of the late 70s. Yeah, heavy metal, the term existed before that, and it was used interchangeably with hard rock but since NWOBHM are we even talking about heavy metal as a genre completely separate from rock.
metal was just rock/blues with distortion. It was invented with the distortion pedal
>>129051412who these nigga's?
>>129049202Pink Floyd invented metal with The Nile Song.
Johnny Burnette invented Heavy Metal
>>129049202most people on this thread won't get it because most of them are zoomers that won't ever experience the bliss of listening to Jimi before getting into metal or hard rock. Man i tell you going from rolling atones, the who and yardbirds to what Jimi was doing, it was a fucking kick in the teeth. No one played with such aggression and made the guitar scream like jimi. Voodoo child and purple haze is all it took to make a whole genersation crank the amps and go crazy.
People who don't listen to/like metal love claiming some wiffle ball riffless groove shit like Helter Skelter or Purple Haze "invented metal".
>>129056005>No one played with such aggression and made the guitar screamDick Dale. But he's not even close to metal because he lacked the British influence that Jimi had.
>>129049218the copest cope of all copium
>>129056005>LARPing as an 80yolmao
In 4th grade I knew this white nerd who told everyone his dad was Jimi Hendrix and didn’t realize how absurd this lie was until almost a decade later.
Grug created metal 1 million years ago
>>129049591You got a point
>>129055395based
>>129051980Debussy
>>129049235John McLaughlin recorded feedback a year earlier, playing through a Fender Bassman.3:06, with Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker.>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O36t_tW2geM
To sum it all up: it was Beethoven, Wagner, Debussy, Link Wray, Johnny Burnette, Dick Dale and Vanilla Fudge.
