Well, the official cover art for the new studio album has been released. Turns out it’s mostly the same as the leaked one from a week ago. At that time, I was told it was not exactly the same, and that appears to be the case here. It pretty much mostly looks the same as […]
Devil You Know Cover Art?
I’ve avoided this story for two days now due to my inability to verify the information in it, but now that it is starting to make it’s way around music news sites, I thought I should say something. A couple of days ago, the image below first appeared on my site’s forums, posted there by […]
Black Rain
Random comment. I broke out Black Rain today. I had forgotten how much I liked this album. There’s some good musical construction to this one. Go get it out and listen again.
Distribution News
There’s a couple of releases coming out in the next month (The 3 Disc Paranoid, and the new studio album). That part is not news. What is news was something I found out yesterday, part of which is probably going to irritate some fans. The 3 Disc Paranoid Release: This has been talked about for […]
Poll Results
Normally I don’t run poll results as a news story, but the results of the current poll surprised me. The poll that I just closed ran from Dec 3, 2008 through till March 1, 2009. The question was this: Would you rather the new album be called Heaven & Hell or Black Sabbath? I offered […]
Paranoid 3 Disc Reissue Update
Got an interesting link sent to me tonight by Norwegian journalist Roy Hilmar Svendsen. It’s an interview with Tony Iommi talking about the three CD Paranoid release due in April. The page itself is in Norwegian (auto translate to English here by Google). Roy was kind enough to send me over a direct English translation […]
The Devil You Know Track Listing
I just received an email from Rhino records with some news that you are going to want to hear. It contains the official track listing for the forthcoming album, “The Devil You Know”, due April 28th. So without further adieu, here is the official track listing, premiered first on the Internet here at Black Sabbath […]
Paranoid 3 Disc Release
Remember that 3 disc Paranoid release that’s been stopped about a dozen times or more at the last minute before it comes out? Well, in the last two days it’s popped up again. Yet again, I approached Iommi management about it, and inquired as to the status this time. This time I’m told that it […]
Win an Autographed Copy of “The Devil You Know”
Last week, it was announced that the new album is called “The Devil You Know”, and the release date is going to be April 28th. In the formal press release that came out, two things were not included. One was a track list, and the other was cover art. So that brings me to my […]
After Forever Cover by Bio Hazard
Could it be you’re afraid of what your friends might say If they knew you believe in God above? They should realize before they criticize that God is the only way to love. 15 years ago a cover album came out called “Nativity in Black”, and it was (in my opinion) a pretty decent record. […]
