Legendary metal/ doom pioneers BLACK SABBATH have announced an APRIL 2013 Australian tour to coincide with the bands first studio release of original material since 1978's "Never Say Die".
BLACK SABBATH announced the band is reuniting last year with legendary producer RICK RUBIN at the helm for a new studio release.
BLACK SABBATH have been confirmed for the first edition of OZZFEST JAPAN (MAY) 2013.
In early 2012, Black Sabbath’s Tony Iommi had been diagnosed with the early stages of Lymphoma. While Iommi recovered, BLACK SABBATH continued working on the bands next release, revamping the bands show schedule.
FROM TONY IOMMI:
What a year! Certainly not the one I was expecting.
Thanks to you all for your massive help and support, it was very encouraging. I'm still working on the album and managed to play three shows, not bad given the news a year ago. I'm looking forward to next year, seeing what you think of the record and touring as much as we're able.
My Best Wishes to you all, I hope you have a great Christmas and New Year, most of all, stay positive,
- Tony
