Hooked: Does It Doom?'s Steve Reis on Black Sabbath's "Black Sabbath"

Does It Doom?'s Steve Reis on Black Sabbath's "Black Sabbath" | Hooked

The envoy of evil honors Tony Iommi's ominous opening odyssey that is a foreboding fight between light and dark that ultimately sparked several subgenres of metal.


Steve Reis's Does It Doom? website features guitar lessons and gear demos in the stoner, doom, and sludge metal genres.

On his YouTube channel you will find weekly breakdowns of your favorite stoner, doom, and sludge metal songs; demos of badass doom gear; and the occasional dip into music theory and other guitar related items. His passion is to help you learn and understand songs by your favorite doom metal artists in hopes that it will leave you with a better understanding of the genre as a whole, and a greater ability to write killer songs of your own.
