Just in case you somehow have been living under a metal rock the last few months, you may have missed how yesterday, July 5, was “Back to the Beginning,” the final live concert for Ozzy Osbourne and the rest of the OGs of Black Sabbath. It a big as fuck day, with a lot of artists taking the stage to tribute to the legends. One of those bands was Lamb of God, who covered “Children of the Grave” during their set. Now, they’ve officially released its studio version and it’s clean as shit. Give it a listen below.
Lamb of God’s guitarist Mark Morton announced the release in a post:
“Lamb of God being invited to perform with Black Sabbath at their final show is one of the greatest honors of our career. As an offering to the celebration, we’ve recorded our take on their classic ‘Children of the Grave’, a protest song with lyrics that are as relevant today as they were in 1971 when the original was released.
“Black Sabbath invented heavy metal and in doing so, they changed the world. This genre that they created brings immeasurable joy to fans all over the globe. We are so grateful to have the heavy metal community to call our home, and so grateful to Black Sabbath for the gift of their music that they’ve given to all of us.”
