the best fucking band ever. im a cajun from Louisiana state but this band FUCKING GETS IT!! they may be british but they were the evilest, most cynical and realist metal band than even Black Sabbath. only pussies listen to black sabbath. real men listen to Jethro Tull. (a band with obvious intellectual ability, and very politically incorrect and street smart. what other band could write a song dedicated to a pedophile named aqualung, all the way back in 1971? absolutely brilliant people.)
Jethro Tull, hmn where to start? they're certainly more preferable than black sabbath. and they have a kickass flute player who knows what he is doing. and they talk about the degeneracy of post-ww2 western civlisation.
