It's been 33 years since the original lineup of the legendary British heavy metal band Black Sabbath released an album together. That album was 1978's 'Never Say Die'. Now, Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward are reuniting to record a new album and tour. The new album, to be released in fall of 2012, will be produced by infamous producer Rick Rubin. The band will also tour in 2012 and headline the 2012 Download Festival in England.

This isn't the first time that the original lineup reunited. They headlined Ozzfest in 2005 and 2005. But this time it's official! According to the band, the new material will have the same style as early Sabbath records. 2012 is the year of Black Sabbath! Be ready!!
