21 years ago there was a really badass concert held in memory of then recently deceased Freddy Mercury of Queen. The three surviving members played with a host of other guest stars for a medley of Queen hits over the years. I remember watching this when it was new – and in fact, […]
The Mezmerist Surfaces
June 22, 2013 by 9 Comments
As anyone who actually follows the FULL history of Black Sabbath will know, the 80’s can best be described as unstable. In that decade by my count, there were seven different lead vocalists, six bassists, and five drummers. Heck Bill Ward himself came and left a couple of times. It’s during one of those times […]
Amazon.com Black Sabbath Sale
June 18, 2013 by 8 Comments
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 […]
Cool 13 posters
June 16, 2013 by 6 Comments
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 […]
13 Giveaway Winners
June 11, 2013 by 12 Comments
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 […]

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! :)
Comments on “13” Packaging
June 6, 2013 by 33 Comments
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, […]
The Giveaway is on!

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 […]
From Queensryche to Queensryche
June 4, 2013 by 25 Comments
UPDATE: If you go to the bottom of the page, you can listen to a FULL ALBUM stream now. :) In the last site redesign, I said that from time to time, I’d write something about music that isn’t directly related to Black Sabbath, and today is one of those posts. I’m here to write […]
