This message came through today on the e-Prog mailing list.  This
"Sabbatum" album sounds kind of interesting.  Kind of similar to the
band Apocalyptica playing Metallica songs on cello.  Will have to give
the mp3s a listen.

can read BOC-L online?  Thanks.

Black Sabbath songs covered by medieval music band Rondellus

“Sabbatum” is a tribute album like no other – 12 Black Sabbath classic
songs played by early music band Rondellus and sung in Latin language.

Can You imagine what Black Sabbath would have sounded like if Ozzy
Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward would have formed the
band in the 14th century? Would “War Pigs” or “The Wizard” have been as
powerful if played on medieval instruments like lute, fiddle and harp?

Curious? So was Rondellus, the renowned Estonian medieval music band.
They took 12 Black Sabbath classics and turned them into something
totally unheard.

You don’t have to take history lessons to get the feeling. It’s all on
the new CD Rondellus recorded – “Sabbatum”. An amazing collection of
Black Sabbath tunes played on medieval instruments and sung in Latin
language.
