also in the blabbermouth article it says Brad Wilk of RATM was the drummer for the album, dunno if it said that in slaps article. not familiar enough with RATM to know if he's a good drummer..
BIRMINGHAM, ENGLAND (January 13, 2013)--Today, the 13th of January 2013, rock legends BLACK SABBATH have announced the title of their new album, 13, which will be released this June (exact date TBA). The original BLACK SABBATH--OZZY OSBOURNE (vocals), TONY IOMMI (guitar) and GEEZER BUTLER (bass)--have recorded the album primarily in Los Angeles and were joined at the sessions by drummer Brad Wilk (Rage Against The Machine). Produced by Rick Rubin (seven-time Grammy winner, two of those as Producer of the Year), the album will be released on Vertigo (worldwide) and Vertigo/Republic in the U.S. 13 marks the Grammy-winning, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees’ return to Vertigo, the band’s original label; it’s the group’s first studio album together since 1978’s Never Say Die! They have sold over 70 million albums together.
In advance of the album’s release, BLACK SABBATH will head to New Zealand, Australia and Japan for live performances (see below for tour dates). Additional tour plans will be revealed in the coming months.
BLACK SABBATH’s initial tour dates are as follows:
DATE CITY VENUE
Sat 4/20 Auckland, New Zealand Vector Arena Mon 4/22 Auckland, New Zealand Vector Arena Thu 4/25 Brisbane, Australia Entertainment Centre Sat 4/27 Sydney, Australia All Phones Arena Mon 4/29 Melbourne, Australia Rod Laver Arena Wed 5/1 Melbourne, Australia Rod Laver Arena Sat 5/4 Perth, Australia Perth Arena Sun 5/12 Tokyo, Japan Ozzfest - Makuhari Messe
I thought about buying or having printed a huge flag or banner to take when I go see Sabbath on 4/20. Not sure where to buy one as none are listed on eBay. Then I could hang it over the rail. I guess I could try a screen printer? Thought about just a long narrow banner with Sabbath Bloody Sabbath on it.....but it would be cheaper/easier to buy one from somewhere... Any better ideas?
Or just the writing We Sold Our Soul for Rock N Roll
Cautiously optimistic about new Sabbath album, Geezer and Tony I'm sure can deliver, and technology and studio time can make Ozzy sound alright, but I'm keeping my expectations at a reasonable level so I'm not disappointed. Also Brad is a good drummer, it's nothing on Bill but he's solid.
