Black Sabbath Reform: 10 Facts You Need To Know

Ten things you may not know about Ozzy and co...

 

  • Black Sabbath were set to perform at an old English castle, but strange things happened during night. Ozzy fell asleep in a room with a fireplace. A piece of burning coal fell off the fireplace and the whole room started to burn. Luckily Ozzy escaped in the last minute. 

Later the band saw an unknown person which walked in a room. They followed him but the room was empty and only door out was locked from the inside.

In the end the members were so scared that they had to leave the castle the same night.

Heavy metal godfathers, Black Sabbath, announced their reunion, along with plans for a new album and 2012 reunion tour over the weekend

The veteran band made the announcement at a press conference in Los Angeles over the weekend, confirming the long-rumoured reformation. The reunion will feature the band’s full original line-up - Ozzy Osbourne, guitarist Tony Iommi, bassist Geezer Butler and drummer Bill Ward. The last time this original four performed together was back in the early 2000s.

Black Sabbath formed in Birmingham back in the late '60s, undergoing many changes - over 20 in fact - since then. The band has sold more than 15 millions records worldwide and have influenced endless heavy metal bands of our time. Their breakthrough album was the classic record 'Paranoid', released in 1970.

To celebrate Gigwise has put together the 10 facts you need to know about Black Sabbath - you can view the gallery below.
