After 33 years since the release of their last original material album, Ozzy Osbourne and his band Black Sabbath have announced their reunion.
At the iconic rock venue Whiskey A Go Go in LA, guitarist Tony Iommi, 63, bassist Geezer Butler, 62, drummer Bill Ward, 63, and 62-year-old singer Ozzy shared this exciting news.
The band, which has held the name Black Sabbath since 1969, revealed plans to perform at next June’s Download Festival in England, followed by a world tour.
Additionally, they shared that a new album is in the works and may be released next autumn.
Ozzy, who was dismissed from the band in 1979, expressed, “It’s just time.
“For some magical reason, we’ve written about seven or eight songs this time.
“It’s now or never. We’re getting along great. Everything’s really good.”
Iommi remarked, “It’s like putting on an old glove.
“It’s fantastic.”
