in #music7 years ago

Black Sabbath is sadly coming to the end this year,after 49 years band is officially over.Next year is announced farewell tour of Ozzy Osbourne,slowly older generations is going to more than deserved retirement.
Though,Tony Iommi didn't rejected maybe occasionally one off concert on some festival,but touring days is over for Black Sabbath.

They left us impressive legacy,they inspired so many bands and i'm sure that Sabbath is one of the most covered bands in history.List of bands who cover them is also impressive,and in this post i'll remind you on some of this covers.

Max Cavalera is one of the biggest Sabbath fan in metal world,and it's not so strange that he covered them with every one of his bands.
First he did it with Sepultura,amazing cover of Symptom Of The Universe :

With Soulfly he covered Under The Sun :

And with Cavalera Conspiracy Electric Funeral :

Metallica always like to point that Sabbath is one of the reasons that they gone into music. When Metallica released Master Of Puppets in 1986 Ozzy took them as a opening act on his tour,and gives them chance to play in front of a bigger audience.
It was not until 1998 and Garace Inc. album that Metallica cover Sabbath,song Sabbra Cadabra :

They also played with Ozzy in Rock'N'Roll Hall Of Fame in 2009 :

Pantera covered Planet Caravan on their 1994 Far Beyond Driven album :

And also for various compilations Electric Funeral and Hole In The Sky :

List goes on and on and on... Black Sabbath is fathers of metal,and all this covers are just the way of bands saying thank you for everything,for inspiration,for creating one magical kingdom and wearing the crown of best metal band ever.

So thank you : Ozzy Osbourne,Tony Iommi,Geezer Butler and Bill Ward.Sabbath is maybe finished but your work lives forever.
