Black Sabbath back at top of charts
« on: June 16, 2013, 22:21 »
Heavy Metal veterans Black Sabbath have scored their first number one album in the UK for nearly 43 years.

Frontman Ozzy Osbourne, guitarist Tony Iommi and bassist Geezer Butler - along with drummer Brad Wilk - beat Liam Gallagher's Beady Eye to the top spot with their long-gestating album, 13.

"I'm in shock!" said 64-year-old Osbourne. "The success of this album has blown me off my feet."

The band last topped the charts in 1970 with their second album, Paranoid.

The current album, which reunites three of the four original band members, has taken more than two years to write and record.

Although I prefer the Dio era of Black Sabbath, this is actually a bloody good album - if you like that sort of thing.

Not my scene Simon.  But my son was into heavy metal bands so it's little wonder Mrs Clive reckons I'm going deaf!   :laugh:
