Babylon is the fourteenth studio album by American heavy metal band W.A.S.P., released on October 12, 2009.[2] The album was inspired by biblical visions of "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse".[3] 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."
All music and lyrics by Blackie Lawless, except where noted.
