Black Cross

"Black Cross" is 45 Grave's debut single, released in 1981 on Goldar Records.[3] It and B-side "Wax" were not featured on their 1984 debut album, Sleep in Safety, but were both later included on the Autopsy collection, and remained staples of their live performances.

"Black Cross" was covered by alternative rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers on their Live in Hyde Park album.

gollark: <@336962240848855040> How goes the random project I offloaded onto you?
gollark: Which is not a very comprehensible sentence.
gollark: Apparently, a correct thing I said "is like saying that QM is predictable because you can just calculate the position of a molecule in ALL space at the same time".
gollark: I don't see how that actually fixes the problem.
gollark: Yes, but I don't think it runs on discretized space and time.
