Notes "confiscated" from the Sky Arts website: http://www.skyarts.co.uk/music/artic...home-of-metal/

We explore the new exhibition at Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery, which looks at the city and the Black Country's role as the birthplace of some of the biggest names in rock.

'Birmingham: Home Of Metal' is a celebration of the music that was born in the Black Country and Birmingham, and is a project created and produced by Capsule. It brings people together to share their passion and explore themes of Heavy Metal through exhibitions, film screenings, live events, a conference and family-friendly activities.

We travelled to Birmingham to speak to legendary Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi about growing up in the Midlands, working in the factories and creating the Heavy Metal sound. We also spoke to Jim Simpson, Sabbath’s first manager, about the early blues-rock influence on the band.

'Birmingham: Home Of Metal' aims to celebrate the bands that helped put Birmingham & the Black Country on the musical map, but also had the imagination and talent to create new genres and movements, all in their own individual ways.

Black Sabbath, unquestionably the founding fathers of Heavy Metal, who introduced a sense of darkness, the supernatural, and huge, heavy riffs to an era still celebrating peace, love and flower power. Led Zeppelin, arguably one of the world's biggest-ever bands, who were one of the first to dirty up R 'n' B and recreate it as Hard Rock. Judas Priest, defenders of the faith whose twin-guitar attack paved the way for multitudes of melodic metal acts in their wake. The 80s and 90s are also represented by Napalm Death, whose first two albums introduced grindcore to an unsuspecting world, and finally Godflesh, whose brooding, desolate soundscapes pioneered industrial metal.

Apart from their postal codes and accents, all of these bands share a common trait in that they all were unwilling to conform to the established rules and guidelines of their respective musical scenes, and instead, embraced originality and all brought something staggeringly new to their respective musical scenes, and for the most part, established new genres, sub-cultures and continue to inspire to this day.

Four decades since Heavy Metal was unleashed onto an unsuspecting world, 'Birmingham: Home of Metal' honours a truly global musical phenomenon.

RATING YOUR UPLOADER IS APPRECIATED & ENCOURAGES FURTHER UPLOADS.....

Looks interesting. Thank you.

My metal friend and I both had our first kids within a few months of each other. This should help in our lessons about real music. (I'm sure my daughter will just end up listening to boy bands, but it's worth a try.)

Stuff like this makes me glad I bought a DVD player that plays PAL.

[yellowpearl]

Thank you very much! Bring back memories of me and my pals roundtrip in the Black Country this summer. Visiting K.K.'s mansion in Cropshire, the "doorsteps" of Ozzy's childhood home in Aston etc.

How did you get on with the local accents? They can take some time to get used to, particularly for non-UK citizens...

He-he! Quite well actually. I met Nigel Halford (brother to Rob) and his cousin (cousin to Rob then ), and the conversation with them was nice and fun...and went well. A lady with a big male Doberman outside K.K.'s mansion, who asked if we were friends of Kenneth...nice conversation there as well Managed to get my usual Jack and Coke in every bar I went, no language barrier there, He-he!
