I thought we'd have to wait until the season finale of CSI to get our first taste of new music from Black Sabbath, but turns out that's not the case.
Today, a pre-order link went up on Amazon.com for the track "God Is Dead?" to be released on April 19th, this Friday. The near nine minute track has gotten positive reviews from press who got an advanced listen and this week, the whole world can chime in when the track is released to the public.
Additionally, the band released another in-studio featurette about the making of their new album, 13 and this clip focuses on how much fun the band is having in the studio:

It's great that there are such relaxed vibes on this record, and this is not being treated as a cash-in. I loved the part where Geezer mentioned that the band used to spend more on cocaine than actually recording the record. At the time, it certainly worked.
Black Sabbath's 13 is scheduled for release on June 11th. Here is the announced tracklisting for the album:
1. End Of The Beginning (8:07)
2. God Is Dead? (8:54)
3. Loner (5:06)
4. Zeitgeist (4:28)
5. Age Of Reason (7:02)
6. Live Forever (4:49)
7. Damaged Soul (7:43)
8. Dear Father (7:06)
As soon as a new song is posted, we will have it for you here.
