Despite them being total dicks in their treatment of Bill Ward I so can't wait to hear that new album.

Well, there's Black Sabbath albums with only Tony Iommi from the original lineup.

Yeah, but that's not Black Sabbath either... it's Tony Iommi with a bunch of people. It's not a reunion of Black Sabbath, like it was promised, without Bill Ward.

Beginning today, 13 will be available to pre-order
in a variety of formats.

Options Include:

• 

  Standard
  CD

  Standard CD album
• 

  Deluxe
  2-CD Set

  Deluxe double CD album in a deluxe soft-pack (includes a second disc of exclusive bonus audio material)
• 

  Vinyl

  A 12” heavyweight (180g) vinyl album in a gatefold sleeve
• 

  Super Deluxe
  Box Set

  A Limited edition 12” clamshell box set which contains: Deluxe double CD album, 12” heavyweight (180g) vinyl album in a gatefold sleeve, Exclusive DVD containing “Black Sabbath--The Re-union” documentary, plus 5 behind-the-scenes videos, Download card containing exclusive track by track interview with Black Sabbath, 13 exclusive photographic prints and hand written album lyrics.

In addition, anyone who pre-orders any of these formats via the Black Sabbath store links above will be entered into a drawing to win a pair of VIP tickets to an official 13 album launch event in London, including a meet and greet with the band, flights, and hotel accommodation! Additional details and full terms and conditions on the contest can be found here.

And what about those Black Sabbath albums without Ozzy Osbourne?
