Nativity In Black: A
Tribute To Black Sabbath Track
Listing: Line-Up: Website: www.blacksabbath.com Shev's Rating: B |
Shev's Review: Biohazard: Sweet Leaf – This is a generally good song ruined by this popular as it is pathetic hardcore outfit. White Zombie: Children Of The Grave – Normally, I can’t stand White Zombie. This industrial mix, however, makes for a great interpretation of an equally great song. Megadeth: Paranoid – Love ‘em or hate ‘em, Megadeth are talented musicians who at least at one point also had a talent for writing good music, and they did a fantastic cover of this one. 1,000 Homo Dj’s: Supernaut – Al Jourgensen’s the man. Enough said. Ozzy Osbourne with Therapy?: Iron Man – Just like the original but with a new intro and slightly different music. Obviously not the original, and really nothing to write home about. Corrosion Of Conformity: Lord Of This World – It’s no secret that Black Sabbath were the most influential band towards the progression of doom and stoner metal, so it makes sense a band like Corrosion Of Conformity would pay homage. Mainstream status aside…this rocks. Sepultura: Symptoms Of The Universe – My personal favorite Black Sabbath song. Basically, Sepultura does a fantastic job on the drums, but completely butchers everything else. Especially the nice outro. Bah! Bullring Brummies: The Wizard – Remarkably brilliant…Ozzy should be paying tribute to Rob Halford. Bruce Dickinson with Godspeed: Sabbath Bloody Sabbath – Musically, almost too good. Vocally, Bruce utter destroys Ozzy. You know what? This is better than the original. Ugly Kid Joe: Nativity In Black – This is actually a pretty good cover from a band I otherwise hate. Kudos. Faith No More: War Pigs – Awesome musicians that do this song great justice. The fact that this has the live flair is icing on the cake. Type O Negative: Black Sabbath – Mega-slow, crushing cover with
typical Type O Negative flavoring before they became way too pop-goth.
Surprisingly awesome, especially towards the end when the rolling snowball picks up a little speed. Also be sure to read: |
