Black Sabbath

According to an expert gardener from England, plants love Black Sabbath just as much as metalheads do! Garden guru Chris Beardshaw recently began an experimental program to analyze the reaction of plants when exposed to music, and according to the gardener's studies, the tasty jams of Black Sabbath "worked wonders on a greenhouse full of plants."

The highly anticipated live return of Black Sabbath this year has finally happened, and unlike last year's handful of shows, there's new material being worked into performances. The group is currently on a tour "down under," hitting venues in New Zealand and Australia and they kicked things off with a blistering performance Saturday (April 20) at Auckland's Vector Arena.

Earlier today (April 20) at the Vector Arena in Auckland, New Zealand, Black Sabbath began their 2013 world tour. The metal legends introduced 'End of the Beginning,' another song off their upcoming album, '13,' to the world. The video can be found above.

It's finally here! Oh, glorious day, you've bestowed upon us the newest Black Sabbath song, 'God Is Dead?' and we give thanks while raising our horns to the sky.

In a surprising Facebook message posted tonight (April 15), heavy metal legend Ozzy Osbourne has admitted to "drinking and taking drugs" over the past 18 months. The revelation comes after rumors earlier today that he has split with his wife Sharon.

In support of their highly anticipated forthcoming album, ‘13,’ metal legends Black Sabbath are gearing up to hit the road, and have now announced four North American tour dates for 2013.

With the release of '13,' the first Ozzy Osbourne-fronted album by Black Sabbath since 1978 only a couple of months away, the band recently took time to discuss the new work. The interview was conducted by Jack Osbourne, Ozzy's son and filed from the listening party they threw on Wednesday (April 10) in Los Angeles.

Excitement for Black Sabbath's upcoming studio album '13' is reaching a fever pitch with metal fans worldwide. As the sacred June 11 release date of '13' draws nearer, Sabbath fanatics are scrambling to absorb as much information about the record as humanly possible, and who better to bring you that info than Black Sabbath singer Ozzy Osbourne's son Jack Osbourne.

"Black Sabbath are back!" Fans of the Ozzy Osbourne-led lineup have been waiting to hear that statement for nearly 35 years, and on Wednesday night (April 10) in Hollywood, Calif., a small theater full of select media and VIPs could officially finally make that claim. Thankfully, Loudwire was among the lucky attendees.

Dying to hear the first single off Black Sabbath's upcoming '13' album? Better yet, would like to see the metal legends perform the tune? Well, next month you can catch Ozzy Osbourne & Co. rock out 'End of the Beginning' on the season finale of CBS' hit show 'CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.'
