After debuting their rendition of Black Sabbath‘s “Children Of The Grave” live during today’s (July 05th) ‘Back To The Beginning‘ live sendoff for Sabbath and their frontman Ozzy Osbourne, Richmond, VA-based groove metallers Lamb Of God have dropped a studio version of their take. This new recording of the Sabbath classic was produced by Josh Wilbur (Korn, Avenged Sevenfold).
Lamb Of God guitarist Mark Morton stated the following of their rendition and the impact Sabbath has had on them:
“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 world. 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.”
