Black Sabbath

Black Sabbath vocalist Ozzy Osbourne dropped by the L.A. Gay and Lesbian Center's 'An Evening with Women' cancer fundraiser on May 18. Hosted by comedienne Kathy Griffin, musicians Natasha Bedingfield and Sia performed at the function, but the highlight of the night was Ozzy himself, who performed a short set consisting of both Black Sabbath and solo hits.

After much anticipation, Black Sabbath finally premiered the new track 'End of the Beginning' on CBS cop drama 'CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.' Sabbath got some pretty good TV time on the program, performing the new song before vocalist Ozzy Osbourne showed off his acting chops during an after-show interview.

If you're a fan of both Black Sabbath and 'CSI: Crime Scene Investigation,' you're about to be given both an eyegasm and eargasm all at once! The legendary heavy metal band will be appearing on the season finale performing a new song "End of the Beginning,' but here's a behind-the-scenes clip that you can check out right now.

Last year, original Black Sabbath drummer Bill Ward took his exit from the band's reunion plans. Ward had cited an "unsatisfactory contract" as the reason for his departure, but in a new interview, Black Sabbath singer Ozzy Osbourne says Ward was unable to meet the physical and mental demands that come with performing a full set behind the kit.

Black Sabbath recorded way more than the eight songs that will appear on the standard edition of their '13' album and one of the ways that they are making sure that fans will get a chance to hear them is through the "bonus track" option. One of those extra songs -- 'Naivete in Black' -- will turn up exclusively on the Best Buy deluxe edition version of the album.

Black Sabbath have just introduced the world to yet another new track, this one from the deluxe edition of the highly anticipated album '13.' On Monday, April 29, in Melbourne, Australia, the band played the new song 'Methademic' in front of a stadium crowd.

Ask and you shall receive. After teasing fans last week with the announcement of four North American 2013 tour dates, Black Sabbath have now revealed the itinerary for the entire tour. The summer trek now boasts 20 dates that span across the United States and Canada.

According to an expert gardener from England, plants love Black Sabbath just as much as metalheads do! Garden guru Chris Beardshaw recently began an experimental program to analyze the reaction of plants when exposed to music, and according to the gardener's studies, the tasty jams of Black Sabbath "worked wonders on a greenhouse full of plants."

The highly anticipated live return of Black Sabbath this year has finally happened, and unlike last year's handful of shows, there's new material being worked into performances. The group is currently on a tour "down under," hitting venues in New Zealand and Australia and they kicked things off with a blistering performance Saturday (April 20) at Auckland's Vector Arena.

Audiences are just getting familiar with 'God Is Dead?,' the epic track that was just released by Black Sabbath as the first single off their highly anticipated '13' album. Ozzy Osbourne took time out from Australia, where the band is preparing to tour, to call in to Zane Lowe's BBC show to speak about the group's album and he also dished about where the inspiration for the new single came from.
