Crusaders to Release Metal Version of Belgian Classic “Seven Horses in the Sky”
The band Crusaders is working on a new metal version of “Seven Horses in the Sky”, the well-known Belgian hit by The Pebbles. With this release, a classic from Belgian pop and rock history will receive a heavier, darker and more powerful reinterpretation.
“Seven Horses in the Sky” was originally released in 1968 by The Pebbles, a Belgian band that became one of the notable names in the Belgian rock and pop scene of the 1960s. The song became their biggest hit and spent several weeks in the Belgian charts. For many music lovers, it remains a recognizable song from that era.
Crusaders does not want to create a simple cover version, but a true interpretation of its own. The melody and recognizability of the original will remain important, but the atmosphere will become heavier, darker and more clearly metal. Expect powerful guitars, solid drums, a threatening atmosphere and an epic sound that fits the title of the song perfectly.
The choice of “Seven Horses in the Sky” fits Crusaders very well. The title immediately evokes images of stormy skies, galloping horses and an almost mythical energy. That makes the song especially suitable for a metal version with plenty of power and drama.
With this new version, Crusaders pays tribute to a Belgian classic, but with a sound that feels completely contemporary. A piece of music history is given a new layer, aimed at fans of classic rock, hard rock and heavy metal.
