Black Sabbath

Black Sabbath s-au reunit iar informatia este confirmata oficial de Tony Iommi.

Iommi, Ozzy Osbourne, Geezer Butler SI Bill Ward se afla deja in studio si lucreaza la un nou album.

Se pare ca sunt sanse ca albumul sa fie lansat in 2012. Intre timp trupa pregateste un turneu.

'Totul a fost secret. Ozzy a fost cel mai greu de controlat, era gata sa strice surpriza.' declara Iommi.

Chitaristul declara ca singura problema in ce priveste reuniunea a fost legata de starea de sanatate a lui Bill Ward.

'A suferit o operatie acum cateva luni insa acum se pare ca e ok. Vom vedea ce se intampla.'

Vestea (teoretic) pune capat zvonurilor conform carora trupa nu are de gand sa se reuneasca in urma unor conflicte intre membrii trupei.

Black Sabbath s-au reunit in 1997 si au incercat sa inregistreze un album in 2001 insa conflictele in program au oprit toate planurile.

In luna februarie Geezer Butler declara: 'Nu va exista o reuniune Black Sabbath.'

In aprilie Ozzy a completat: 'Eu sunt gata. Daca trebuie sa se intample atunci se va intampla.'

Metal legends BLACK SABBATH will headline a number of Europe's premier festivals in 2012.

After announcing their reunion on 11.11.11, these worldwide appearances are one of the most anticipated music events of 2012. Kicking off on Friday May 18 in Moscow at Olimpski, the tour will bring Black Sabbath to the masses at: Download Festival (UK), Azkena Rock Festival (Spain), Hellfest (France), Graspop Metal Meeting (Belgium) and Gods of Metal (Italy). However, that's only the beginning of the group's global tour which will take the band around the world including countries the band has never played before and others they have not visited in more than three decades.



The four original members of Black Sabbath - guitarist Tony Iommi, singer Ozzy Osbourne, bassist Geezer Butler and drummer Bill Ward - are currently recording their first studio album in 33 years with legendary producer Rick Rubin (METALLICA, SLAYER) for release worldwide on Vertigo Records, and Vertigo/Universal Republic Records in the US in the fall 2012.

Revered music and spoken word artist, HENRY ROLLINS, has said that “Black Sabbath’s music is ultimate bone-powderizing gear. Any band worth their weight in napalm wishes they had written ‘War Pigs.’ The critics never got it, but the fans did and still do, and the music has not lost any thunder with time but in fact resonates more loudly…Hail the mighty Black Sabbath now and forever.”

Music fans across Europe are in for a night of epic proportions from the Grammy-winning, Rock And Roll Hall of Fame inductees on this very historic return.
