This morning my inbox exploded with people telling me about a story going around that Black Sabbath is going to start recording a new album in 2015. Lets look at that, eh?
Cassette Tape Set
Last weekend, I had a cool submission from Daniel Renna – he’s got more today. Something I don’t believe I’ve ever seen before. It was a cassette tape box set of the four of the first five Black Sabbath albums. Check it out:
Photos from 1992
I got an email the other day from Sab fan Daniel Renna sending me some photos from Sabbath’s tour in 1992. Here’s what he had to say about the photos he sent in:
Headless Cross Cover
It’s fitting that on the week of the 25th anniversary I discover a new cover. The Italian band “Hollow Haze” has a cover of the title track from the “Headless Cross” album. This came out a couple of years ago, but I’d never heard of it before today. Check it out, the video is […]
Happy 25th Headless Cross!
I don’t have time to write one of the giant 5,000 word essays at this time, but I didn’t want to let this anniversary pass. Today is the 25th anniversary of the Headless Cross album, originally released back in 1989. While technically the second Tony Martin era album, it felt like the “first” to me, […]

Cal Jam 1974 is 40!
Sunday April 6th is the 40th Anniversary of the famous Cal Jam Festival concert. One of the more known pieces of concert video, and was the period where Tony Iommi didn’t wear a mustache. :)
Video from NY show on Monday
Short and sweet, you don’t want to read my blathering. Here’s video of the whole concert (from multiple sources) from Monday night, which kicks off this current (final?) leg of the 13 Tour. Also, here is the setlist:
14 EP
Hot on the heels of the July 4th Hyde Park show comes this little tidbit I found in my inbox tonight. Cover art for something that should look awfully familiar to some people, who were excited about the new Black Sabbath studio release from last year. We’ve been hearing rumours of another new Sabbath […]
July 4 Concert Announced
The tour continues on. A date at Hyde Park in London on July 4th has been added. Normally this called “British Summer Time”, but it’s been amusingly renamed to “Black Sabbath Time”. A press release and video about the new gig are below. Tickets go on sale 9AM Wed Apr 2:
