THIS IS NOT A RUMOUR. BLACK SABBATH ARE BACK.

Veteran British rock band Black Sabbath are back together for their first new album in 33 years plus a 2012 world tour...and it's all TRUE!

The original four-man band, today all in their 60’s, released their last studio album "Never Say Die" in 1978. Fans are gonna rock again live and to the sounds of a new release with the metal quartet featuring singer Ozzy Osbourne, guitarist Tony Iommi, bass player Geezer Butler and drummer Bill Ward!

The British heavy metal originators have begun working on an album of new material. "It’s now or never. We are getting along great. Everything’s really good", Iommi told reporters in a press conference. "It’s like putting on an old glove. It’s fantastic," Iommi added. The album, which is to be produced by Rick Rubin, does not have a title as yet.

When Ozzy was fired back in 1979 Black Sabbath were left with a revolving lineup for a number of years. The original foursome, however, came back together in 1998 and released Reunion, followed by sporadic live shows in the early 2000's.

It is confirmed they will reunite one more time to perform at the Download Festival in England in June 2012, and then embark on a tour to rock the world.
