Black Sabbath - War Pigs Live Performance from Kisstadion, Budapest
In June 1998, Black Sabbath performed at Kisstadion in Budapest, showcasing a lineup that included iconic members Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and drummer Vinny Appice. By this point in their career, the band had recently released the album 'Reunion' in 1998, which marked their first new material together in years and a triumphant return to the live scene. Notably, the 'Reunion' album featured re-recordings of classic tracks and was fueled by the band's strong connection with their fans, reigniting the passion of a fervent metal community. This performance of 'War Pigs' is particularly iconic, symbolizing not just the band's enduring legacy but also the political undertones inherent in their music. It’s amazing to think how much their sound has evolved while maintaining a core of powerful messages that resonate with listeners.
