Black Sabbath finally confirmed their reunion at the press conference that had been arranged on 11.11.2011 in Los Angeles.
The original band members, as we knew in their start in Birmigham, England in 1968, Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward will be back together on stage in June at the Download festival. Then world tour will follow.
The surprise, however, was not so much the reunion, but the announcement that they will release a new album after 33 years in the autumn of 2012 with production by Rick Rubin.
