This coming Saturday, July 5th, the world will bid farewell to Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne with the Back to the Beginning concert event in Birmingham, U.K. Not able to participate in the send-off due to prior obligations is Judas Priest — but Sabbath’s heavy metal brethren saw fit to honour the band nonetheless. Debuted by Priest this week is a studio version of their cover of “War Pigs,” the Black Sabbath classic that Rob Halford and his colleagues play every night over the PA at their concerts.

We are honoured to show our love for Ozzy and Black Sabbath with our homage to ‘War Pigs’ – A song we play at every show around the world that fans sing along to – reinforcing their love as well for the legendary Prince of Darkness….!! The show will have an accompanying global live stream, ensuring fans all across the world can tune in to watch what promises to be an unforgettable show.
