Black Sabbath continue work on their new album, their first with Ozzy Osbourne since 1978’s “Never Say Die.”
The project is due to be released in April, the same month Sabbath kick off their 2013 world tour.
On Monday, Ozzy shared a photo from the recording sessions (below), writing, “Back to work on the Black Sabbath album - my view from the vocal booth.”
A few months ago, bassist Geezer Butler said that 15 songs had been written, and that he expected 12 of them will make the record, with the additional three serving as bonus tracks for different special editions.
The album will not feature contributions from original Sabbath drummer Bill Ward, who continues to sit things out over a contract dispute.
