"The longtime bassist for the legendary heavy metal band Black Sabbath looks back on their early days in working class England and their ascension to worldwide stardom as well as the band's later years"--
With over 75 million records sold, Black Sabbath created the heavy metal genre with their distinctive heavy riffs, tuned down guitars, and apocalyptic lyrics. Butler, the group's bassist and primary lyricist, tells its story, from the band’s beginnings as a scrappy blues quartet in Birmingham through the record breaking tours and the international hell-raising. He writes candidly on his childhood in Luftwaffe-battered Birmingham, his almost-life as an accountant, and his fascination with horror, religion, and the occult. -- adapted from jacket
