Black Sabbath in the Studio with Rick Rubin

Black Sabbath in the Studio with Rick Rubin -

Ever since Black Sabbath announced plans to record a new album, the band have been tirelessly working with producer Rick Rubin at his LA studio on the project.

The band, who announced on Wednesday that the new album will be released on 11th June, have now released exclusive video footage of them working on the new record.

Producer colossus Rubin said (via Hennemusic):

 "I've been a fan of Black Sabbath my whole life and getting to come to work every day and hearing Black Sabbath play, it stimulates something in me just like when I was 14 years old; the same thing gets stimulated that, like, I remember listening to the vinyl. The same thing gets turned on, and it's a really good feeling."

A number of song titles that are set to feature on '13' include three seven-plus-minute monsters 'End Of The Beginning,' 'God Is Dead' and 'Epic,' as well as the controversial 'Dear Father,' which is a track about killing paedophile Priests and 'Methademic,' which is again another relevant track for the current time about the scourge of crystal-meth addiction.
