Noticed this morning that several Black Sabbath CD’s are on sale at Amazon.com.  Given it’s an internet sale, there’s been a rush on them, and some might not be in stock at the moment, but Amazon is still taking orders at the discounted price.  So if you need a new copy, or just want another… [Continue Reading]

I got an email with some really cool looking photos of a slick 13 promotion.   This is more a thing around Europe than here in the States where I am.  In Europe I always see pictures of band posters on the walls in public.  Don’t nearly see that as much here, but I’m familiar… [Continue Reading]

I just realized that I totally neglected to post the winning answers and those who won the contest!   I mailed them out on Monday afternoon (even tweeted on the way to the post office), but forgot to even email people and tell them that they won!   One guy only lives an hour or… [Continue Reading]

After what seems like an eternity, the 13 album is now out worldwide.   If you’re reading this, you probably have it.  Let us know below what you think of the album.  Where did you buy your copy? For more info on 13, including pictures, videos, and trivia, check out my “13 page” elsewhere on… [Continue Reading]

Got this sent to me in email this afternoon.  Thought it was cool, so I’d post it online.  Sabbath fan Anthony Roof got a Black Sabbath cake from his wife.  I’ve attached his story with the picture.  Check ‘em out, and you’ve got a keeper there, Anthony!  :)

Today I received a box in the mail from a rather kind benefactor that contained a bunch of copies of the Deluxe Edition of “13″ as well as a vinyl copy of the album for myself.  I intend on giving away the majority of the copies of the CD in the next couple of days,… [Continue Reading]

Check out this quick video I posted to Vine.    I’ll be running a giveaway for “13″ shortly, but I’m about to start work.  When I’m done with that, I’ll get a contest up.  Probably late tonight.   I’ll also summarize my thoughts on various aspects of the thing now that I have physical media… [Continue Reading]

LEGALLY, TOO! Short and sweet.  The iTunes store is streaming the entire “13″ album for free.  Go there, and look at the “Black Sabbath” page, and you can listen to a free streaming version of the entire Deluxe Edition of the “13″ album now. THE STREAM APPEARS ON THE ARTIST PAGE FOR BLACK SABBATH NOT… [Continue Reading]

Short and sweet.  A full track version of the studio recording is now streaming online!   We’re getting close – less than two weeks until full worldwide release!

I’m directing y’all to a new interview I watched tonight for the first time.  It was with Tony Iommi.  Given there’s a new Black Sabbath album now in a couple of weeks, an interview with Tony is not a surprise.   There’s bound to be a ton of them.  But this one I wanted to… [Continue Reading]
