What can I say?

Its a fun little book that you can read in bite-sized chunks, but, well, its a philosophy book based on Black Sabbath. There is a very strong sense that the writers went looking for ways to match Sabbath up to anything approaching philosophical questions. Id never put the two together and its worth the slight cost of admission. There are essays on evil, on musical genres, and even one on my favorite philosopher ol Art Schopenhauer. The most interesting questions center around definitions and identity: what makes a thing a thing? Who or what is the real Black Sabbath? The writers use the large number of changes of band members over the years as a spring board to question the reality and definition of a thing any thing even a kind of silly albeit successful group of doping musicians from Britain. Its a fun and light read. Probably wont lead to any real revelations or Oprah a-ha moments but just might get you thinking about question of mastering reality, cranky German philosophers, and war. So I say give it a go.
