TONY IOMMI Hopes To Begin Work On New BLACK SABBATH Album Next Year

September 11, 2004

BLACK SABBATH guitarist Tony Iommi has told GibsonCustom.com that the possibility of a new SABBATH album has not been ruled out. Asked point-blank if there will be a new CD of original material from the heavy metal pioneers, Iommi responded, "We would hope so. I'm hoping we will do another one. One of the major problems, of course, is Ozzy's been doing a lot of other stuff with his MTV stuff. Hopefully within the next year we'll be able to do something. I'm wrapped up at the minute doing my solo stuff and still writing, but I've got some stuff in hand if we do do another SABBATH album."

As previously reported, several BLACK SABBATH fans have launched an online petition to convince the original SABBATH members — Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Terry "Geezer" Butler and Bill Ward — to record a new studio album. View and/or sign the petition at this location.
