There are TONS of them. Which ones do you think did them justice?

A few of my favorite covers:

KYUSS - Into the Void
PRIMUS - N.I.B.
JOHN TESH w/ AZ/DZ - The Wizard (priceless!)
CORROSION OF CONFORMITY - Lord of This World
CATHEDRAL - Wheels of Confusion
CATHEDRAL - Solitude
FAITH NO MORE - War Pigs (studio version)
ICED EARTH - Black Sabbath
SCREAMING TREES - Tomorrow's Dream
MEGADETH - Never Say Die
SLEEP - Snowblind

SLEEP - Lord of This World
FORSAKEN - Neon Knights
LAST CHAPTER - Children of the Sea

SPIRIT CARAVAN - Wicked World
SYSTEM OF A DOWN - Snowblind

As far as tribute albums go, there have been almost 30 different tributes released to date with a WIDE range of styles available. I've been checking out many of them lately and I tend to prefer the oddball ones over the typical metal tributes.


The Kind of Black jazz tribute by THE CASUALTIES OF JAZZ is stellar and quite possibly the best overall tribute album I've heard yet. It's a jazz trio made up of a drummer, upright bassist and an organist playing a Hammond B3. Sabbath's stuff was full of jazz influences, especially in the beginning, so this tribute really brings out some cool nuances in their music!

I'm also checking out IRON HORSE's bluegrass tribute (Black & Bluegrass) right now, which is a hoot! As Steve Martin said, "Yyou just can't be sad when you're playing or listening to banjo!" How right he is! Favorite BLACK SABBATH covers/tributes... 309780

Other oddball tributes include Lullaby versions, Indian/Hindu versions, Acoustic version w/ female vox, String Quartet versions, Folk versions, Electronic versions and a Medieval tribute played entirely on authentic period instruments and sung completely in Latin! Awesome! Very Happy

I always thought MEGADETH's version of Paranoid was hilarious, just for the ending. ...Nick! Nick! NICK. Classic. Also, this will probably be blasphemy, but I actually really like System of a Down's cover of Snowblind.

Yes, very funny! I preferred their cover of "Never Say Die" to "Paranoid" though.

No, not at all! I love that cover too, and I probably should have included it on my list. Totally unique.

Type O also did a GREAT slow & doomy version of "Paranoid" when I used to see'em live all the time in the early 90s...it was so friggin' cool, first time they played it my friends & I didn't even realize what song it was because it sounded nothing like the original... it wasn't till we were able to pick out some of the lyrics that the light finally went on and we were like "Holy crap, that's f**kin' "Paranoid!" I believe they recorded it as a bonus track on their "live" CD ("Origin of the Feces")

The US release of the Masters of Misery tribute on the Earache label from 1997.

Here's a link for ya: http://www.amazon.com/Masters-Misery-Black-Sabbath-Tribute/dp/B00000585K/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/002-1959427-7037648?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1184790993&sr=1-1

The Japanese version contained some different tracks, including another cover of "Shock Wave" also by CATHEDRAL - though Lee Dorrian's vocal performance on that track left a little to be desired... Neutral

Yep! A one off, on the spot performance when John Tesh and Dweezil & Ahmet Zappa were all booked together on the Conan O'Brien show one night - which I just happened to be fortunate enough to download an audio version of online back in the heyday of Audiogalaxy and Napster. VERY cool, IMO. Very Happy

I've heard the recorded version a couple of times and as much as a Type O fan I am, don't really dig the cover. I guess because I was expecting it to be more... Paranoid-y.

I agree with all those, particularly the System Of A Down cover. They really did a killer job on that one.

I'll add:

White Zombie - Children Of The Grave (absolutley killer!)
Solitude Aeturnus - Heaven And Hell
Elis - Heaven And Hell
3rd Strike - Paranoid (a rapcore version!)

I've never heard the recorded one (my copy of ORIGIN OF THE FECES was the original pressing with the infamous bung-hole on the album cover, which didn't include the track) but it was quite an experience when they played it live!! Once my friends and I were hip to it, it was pretty funny at a few shows after that when they'd bust into it and you'd see half of the crowd straining their ears like "WTF is this? Is this a new song?!?" Hahaha
