Iconic Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi has revealed he has a load of material ready and waiting for a new album.
Fuelling the rumors that a Black Sabbath reunion is about to be announced, Iommi told VH1 Radio Network he has “a lot of stuff” and “plenty of ideas”.
“I’m writing all the time. I’ve got a lot of stuff. I’ve got a studio at home. I just go in and play for a bit, put something down. My engineer is good; he’ll program up drums and whatever else. So I’ve got plenty of ideas for whatever thing I want to use them as.”
Recently Stereoboard reported that Black Sabbath have allegedly had a rehearsal session together. The news came just a week after Ozzy Osbourne described the possibility of the band reuniting as “very, very strong.”
The possible comeback would involve the four original members of Sabbath, Tony Iommi, Ozzy Osbourne, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward, playing together once again, ripping their way through the classics.
What’s more for Sabbath fans is that the reunion is shaping up so that if it happens, it could very well result in a headline slot at the prestigious Sonisphere or Download festivals in 2012 – but we’ll have to wait and see on that one too.
