2009 studio album by W.A.S.P.
Babylon is the fourteenth studio album by American heavy metal band W.A.S.P. , released on October 12, 2009.[8] The album was inspired by biblical visions of "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse".[9] The album contains covers of Deep Purple 's "Burn" (originally recorded for W.A.S.P's previous album Dominator , but not used for unknown reasons) and Chuck Berry 's "Promised Land". "Promised Land" was also covered in 1973 by Elvis Presley , and it was Elvis' version that the band had in mind as demonstrated by the ending comment "How about one of them peanut butter & banana sandwiches."
