Black Sabbath have revealed that the title of their upcoming new album is 13.
The album will be the first that the original members - Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler - have made together since their 1978 record Never Say Die!.
It is set to be released in June, and the band recorded it in LA. It will feature Rage Against the Machine's Brad Wilk on drums, and was produced by Rick Rubin, who has also worked with Johnny Cash, System Of A Down and Metallica.
Sadly, original drummer Bill Ward isn't likely to join the band. Iommi said in an interview with Blaring Out in November, "We'll always have a heart for Bill, but I think it's gone past that now, because it's gone on so long I don't see that happening at the moment."
He also said that the album will have 15 tracks, adding, "We've written the 15 songs and we've played them all, but now at the moment we're recording them. We're about six tracks in at the moment."

The band also have a few upcoming live dates set to begin in April, although it is thought that more will be announced - and there are rumours that Black Sabbath could be on the festival circuit this year.
The dates so far include Australia, New Zealand and Japan's Ozzfest.
