- Synopsis
- Tony Iommi, rock guitarist and Black Sabbath legend, invented the heavy metal sound that changed rock music forever . . . from working class Midlands roots, Tony Iommi's unique playing style - a result of a disfiguring hand injury he suffered working in a sheet metal factory - created a dark and gothic sound unlike anything that had been heard before, spawning generations of devoted fans. Black Sabbath went on to become a superband, and Iommi led the life of a rockstar to the fullest - with the scars from all the nights of wild excess to show for it. In Iron Man, Iommi goes on the record about Sabbath and tells his story: the life and adventures of one of rock's greatest heroes. 'Tony Iommi is the true father of Heavy Metal, a continuously creative genius riff-meister, and one of the world's great human beings' Brian May 'Without Tony, heavy metal wouldn't exist. He is the creator of heavy! Tony is a legend. He took rock and roll and turned it into heavy metal' Eddie van Halen 'Mr Iommi, aka . . . The riffmaster. It's all his fault I am where I am' James 'papa HET' Hetfield
