June 3, 2013 9:30PM ET. 13. By. Will Hermes. 13 is steered by an Rick Rubin, and it shows that, for all their innovations, Sabbath were a product of their era – at core, they’re a blues-rooted prog-rock band, and 13 may surprise some people in its proto-­metal traditionalism. The eight-minute opener, End of the Beginning, goes through various time shifts, beginning with a sludgy stomp, switching to a galloping midsection and ending with a floaty, almost Beatlesque outro. Philosophically, of course, 13 is more monstrous, at times comically so. Down among the dead men’s vision/Faded dreams and nuclear fission, Osbourne whines on Zeitgeist in a voice as piercingly unpretty as it was back in the day; on the single God Is Dead? he rhymes gloom, doom and tomb – metal’s unholy poetic trifecta.

The Rick Rubin-produced 13, featuring Rage Against the Machine/Audioslave drummer Brad Wilk, is the first Black Sabbath album to involve more than two original members since 1983's Ozzy-less Born Again. That it isn't an out-of-touch embarrassment is a surprise. That it's cohesive, engaging, and even fun is a near-shock. The current Black Sabbath reunion has been star-crossed almost from the start. Original members Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward staged a splashy press conference in November 2011 to announce a tour and a Rick Rubin-produced album, but the.

Black Sabbath are back!" Fans of the Ozzy Osbourne-led lineup have been waiting to hear that statement for nearly 35 years, and on Wednesday night (April 10) in Hollywood, Calif. a small theater full of select media and VIPs could officially finally make that claim. Thankfully, Loudwire was among the lucky attendees. Before the songs off the disc were played for those in attendance, Ozzy Osbourne's son Jack welcomed the audience and played a short film on the making of the album that his company created. That's a lofty expectation to meet, so with that, let's delve into our first impressions of the '13' album with a track-by-track rundown of the album's eight songs: 'End of the Beginning' - Knowing that Black Sabbath would need an opener to catch people's attention, the band didn't disappoint.

There have been countless reunions and mutations of the band following vocalist Ozzy Osbourne's first dismissal in 1978, and even 13 doesn't quite deliver on fans' decades-long desires to see all four original members back together. Original drummer Bill Ward sits the record out due to disputes over the recording contract, with Audioslave/Rage Against the Machine drummer Brad Wilk providing beats in his stead.
