In fact my journal is currently focusing on this time period of the early 1970s at the moment. Just click the link at the bottom of this post "Pounding Decibels"
Yeah, after giving it more thought over the last day or so I did think of Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath as probable for that OWOBHM, but thanks for clearing that up.

As for this thread? It's pretty awesome. I never knew that so many "Satanic" leaning bands were part of the catagory. Learned about a lot of stuff here, thank you for the read!
