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, […]

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 […]

Spotted this video tonight that shows the making of the “13” album cover.  Check it out:

UPDATE: This episode is on TONIGHT – Wednesday the 15th on CBS.  Check your local listings! Noticed today that CBS has put a behind the scenes video online for Black Sabbath’s appearance on CSI next Wednesday the 15th.   Check out the video, it’s 3:08 long, and is definitely worth watching.   However, in the […]

Get ready to bring the hate.  Found out tonight that there’s a Best Buy Exclusive version of 13.   As far as I can tell, it’s exactly the same as the 2CD Deluxe version, with it’s 11 studio tracks, but the Best Buy version has 12.  Here’s the track listing for that version:
