- The bands who influenced Black Sabbath was Vinnie Moore's Time Odyssey, Yngwie J. Malmsteen's Oddyssey and Trial By Fire, Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, Alice in Chains, Faith No More, Danzig, Mercyful Fate, King Diamond, Melvins, Queens Of The Stone Age, The Offspring, Black Flag, and Tool are the bands who had influenced Black Sabbath on some heavy metal bands who cut on one of the albums.
This doesn't make much sense, and what sense that is in it seems backwards. --Ihcoyc
I removed the modern incarnation of the above:
Influence:
Black Sabbath had a notable influence on Vinnie Moore's Time Odyssey, Yngwie J. Malmsteen's Oddyssey and Trial By Fire, Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, Alice in Chains, Faith No More, Danzig, Mercyful Fate, King Diamond, Korn, Melvins, Guttermouth, The Offspring, Queens Of The Stone Age, Crass, Black Flag, and Tool.
I'm not saying there's not a place for this in the article, but this is not the way to do it. Tuf-Kat
- The Offspring? Malmsteen? Tool? What have you been smoking? Tool's music sounds nothing like Black Sabbath's, and is arguably not even classifiable as heavy metal. The only thing that Sabbath has in common with a lot of these bands is dark imagery and a penchant for loud rock guitar. -- goatasaur
