it all happened in 1968 in Birmingham, England, when a guy called tony iommi got the ends of his fingers on his right hand chopped off my a metal-bending-chopping machine in a factory. this accident happened on the day he was going to leave the factory and begin a career with a band called earth. since he was left handed, he couldn't play guitar anymore, and he couldn't switch to right hand either. so, he melted some plastic on his fingers and covered them with leather, and decided that he could tune down and play with his finger. the sound was a lot more thicker and heavier, which later became the core of the band's sound. then, after that, the band's satanic bassist geezer butler received a satanic book from their singer (the almighty) Ozzy osbourne. the same night, the book disappeared and geezer saw an evil figure standing next to his bed, so Ozzy came up with the lyrics to "black sabbath", and the first heavy metal song was created. plus the band changed their name to black sabbath. and that's how heavy metal began.
