LAMB OF GOD Drop Crushing Cover of Black Sabbath’s “Children Of The Grave”

After debuting their rendition of Black Sabbath’s “Children Of The Grave” live during yesterday’s (July 05th) ‘Back To The Beginning’ farewell celebration for Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne, Richmond, VA-based groove metal giants Lamb Of God have now released the official studio version of their take on the Sabbath classic.

The recording was produced by longtime collaborator Josh Wilbur (Korn, Avenged Sevenfold) and is available now on all major digital service providers.

Lamb Of God guitarist Mark Morton shared the following about the cover and the influence Sabbath has had on the band:

“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.”
