joeschmoe Punk Posts: 965 Registered: Jul 2002	posted 07-26-2002 12:42 PM Slayer remade the song into a superfast thrash metal song.. I remember they would play it on Z-Rock back in the day. Nowadays metal stations are pussies. Iron Butterfly are like metal godfathers and get no respect. And you have to listen to MetalShop just to hear Slayer, if you are lucky. IP: Logged

troll Punk Posts: 258 Registered: Jan 2002	posted 07-29-2002 09:07 AM I don't know why I'm admitting to it, but I still have my father's Iron Butterfly album. When I was a kid he would play INNAGODDADAVIDA mainly to piss off my mother. I think the original song was titled In the garden of eden. I haven't heard it in decades. IP: Logged

Finn McCool Punk Posts: 500 Registered: Jul 2002	posted 07-29-2002 12:14 PM According to ancient legend, "In a Gadda Da Vida" is what "In the Garden of Eden" sounds like when spoken through a bong.

Billy V Gan Punk Posts: 1116 Registered: Jun 2002	posted 07-29-2002 12:21 PM It says in the CD writings he had a gallon of wine when he was writing the song. When he told his bandmates about the song he was writing his slurred speech said "inna gadda devita" rather than "in the garden of eden." IP: Logged

trailerdiva Punk Posts: 576 Registered: Feb 2001	posted 08-19-2002 04:53 AM When I was in high school, I babysat for this couple with a killer stereo and headphones. He liked country, she liked rock. When the kids were in bed, I would zone out to Iron Butterfly and Led Zeppelin Two. Years later I heard they got divorced.

Billy V. Gan Punk Posts: 765 Registered: Jul 2001	posted 09-27-2002 09:30 AM I'm listening to in gadda devitta right now. During the slow, weird part it sound like they are actually playing an upright bass, not a bass guitar. IP: Logged
