BLACK SABBATH Finished Recording New Album; Begin Mixing New This Month

Black Sabbath have been recording their new album, tentatively titled 13, for the better part of the last few months. The band are currently working with session drummer and Rage Against The Machine skinman Brad Wilk.

The latest word from bassist Geezer Butler? The band is done recording and getting ready to mix the album. 

Butler was interviewed by Eddie Trunk at NAMM last weekend and offered this update:

"We've finished recording it. Tony's back in England putting down a couple of solos. Then we start mixing it in February and it will be out in June. The provisional title is '13' — unless we can come up with something more constructive."

He also pretty much confirmed that the band will be touring the States in the summer:

"We start [touring] at the end of April in New Zealand, then we go to Australia, then Japan. June, we'll be promoting the album, then July and August [is] USA. Then October is South America and Europe in November and December."

Geezer lated added that he's not sure if Brad Wilk will join the band on the road due to his commitments to Rage Against The Machine. He added if Wilk couldn't do it, Ozzy's drummer, Tommy Clufetos would get the gig, as he performed with the band at their shows last year. (Here's some footage).

Overall, Sabbath is coming back, and there is nothing that can stop them!
