With rumours circling the internet this week, it seems now this is official. According to Sundaymercury.net, the original BLACK SABBATH line-up is getting back together.
Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward have begun rehearsing for a tour and new studio album.
In June this year vocalist Ozzy and guitarist Iommi wrote new material for a record that will be released next year.
Were really looking forward to it and I think the stuff weve been writing is really good, said 63-year-old Iommi. Its more back to the old original stuff.
He added that the reunion has been kept under wraps for some time.
Its all been very hush-hush. Ozzys been the worst at trying to hold it back. Hes doing a lot of TV and hes being asked stuff about a reunion and hes going well I never say never.
He told me, I dont know what to say.
Iommi's last version of Black Sabbath, called HEAVEN & HELL, came to an end when singer Ronnie James Dio died in May 2010.
I had umpteen number of people on the phone asking if I fancied getting together with a band but I couldnt tell them what I was doing. I just had to say I was busy.
