I think it's gonna be a great rock album as well as the final one from Sabbath with tracks similiar to their debut album & Paranoid.

Ashes to Ashes
Dust to Dust.

Here the emphasis is on Dust!

"And they shall say, how long till our blood be redeemed upon those on the Earth? Till the testimony of God is finished!"

I am sorry, God no longer works here.

Yeah, to all you young folks who only know itunes, MTV music awards and youtube, Black Sabbath is what's known as a BAND. They play their own instruments, write their own songs, and make ROCK music. Damn good heavy rock music. Try giving Gaga, Rinanna, Biever, Kezha etc, a break, and listen some REAL music. Something with substance, not just flash, style, image.

Nice to see that Charlie Sheen is getting out of reality tv and back on stage. Maybe had he not spent all his money on drugs, he would not have to work at 70?

When the needle runs dry, he will die!
They will say he has Alzheimer or something. No he was a dust freak!
