"Electric Funeral" was the fifth song off of Black Sabbath's second album Paranoid, released in 1970. The song deals with nuclear war and its aftermath. While thematically similar to War Pigs, the song lyrics are even darker, a fact complemented by an eerie main riff. The song did not appear in the live set until 1978, and then was not played again until the Reunion Tour.The song was covered by Pantera on the second Nativity in Black 'Sabbath tribute album, by Soulfly, as well as by power metal
