Into The Void (Black Sabbath Song)
"Into the Void" is a song by Black Sabbath, released in 1971 on their album, Master of Reality. An early version of "Into the Void" called "Spanish Sid" was released on the deluxe edition of Master of Reality. It is written in the key of C# minor.
Owing to a noticeable difference in structure from the rest of the song, the introduction of "Into the Void" has been known to be called The Death Mask.
Various artists have covered the song, including Kyuss, Sleep, Dr. Know, Cavity, Exhorder, Lumsk, Soundgarden, Melvins, Monster Magnet, and Orange Goblin.
In Soundgarden's version, the original lyrics are replaced by words of protest by Chief Seattle, which fit the metre of the song. At the 1993 Grammy Awards, the appropriately renamed "Into the Void (Sealth)" received a nomination for Best Metal Performance.
