For people who witnessed the start of heavy / thrash metal

What was it like then especially with songs against the system like "war pigs" by Black sabbath or "peace sells" by Megadeath?
Did authorities tried to oppress the heavy metal movement? did sheeps try to protest against it?

And why did it stop? I don't find songs against the system these days except in some death core music

War Pigs is a true evaluation of those who rule over us.Rather than draw attention to a truth,it is a time trusted method to simply ignore any such trruth,just like today.I worship "System of a Down" and they do exactly what the label promises.SSSSSSSSSSSSSUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!|
