Letzte Neuigkeiten

Bitte hier für alte Black Sabbath News klicken!

Ich habe für die Seite ein Banner erstellt, daß alle Besitzer einer eigenen Black Sabbath Page zum Linken verwenden können:

www.black-sabbath.de

Wie einige von Euch sicher mitbekommen haben, waren die letzten Wochen Teile von www.black-sabbath.de offline. Grund war ein Brief der IFPI (www.ifpi.de, www.ifpi.org) an einen meiner Provider. Obwohl laut Urheberrecht man sieben Takte von jedem Song frei verwenden kann, scheinen der Plattenindustrie meine 10-Sekunden-MP3-Tracks ein Dorn im Auge zu sein. Solange ich die Rechtslage nicht eindeutig geklärt habe, sind die Tracks erstmal alle offline.

Tourdaten und Bands für daß Ozzfest 2004 stehen fest - Details unter knac.com . Tony Martin wird im Mai 2004 im Rahmen von "Whole Lotta Metal" durch England touren.

Auf billward.com kann man sich den neuen Song "The Dark Half Hour" vom bald erscheinenden Album Beyond Aston als MP3 herunterladen - sehr empfehlenswert! Die neue Dio-DVD von der Sacred Hear-Tour wird am 23. März über Rhino Home Video veröffentlicht. Letztere haben in Vorbereitung der Veröffentlichung der Black Sabbath Black Box eine Single "Paranoid / Iron Man" rausgebracht - Photo siehe hier. Jeff Pilson wird wie bereits angekündigt im April mit Dio ein neues Album aufnehmen, aber nicht mit auf Tour gehen. Bekannte Tourdaten Dio 2004 sind: 4.8. Karlsruhe, 5.8. Nürnberg - Hirsch.

Es war mal wieder ein paar Monate ruhig auf www.black-sabbath.de - wie immer, wenn ich keine Zeit habe, liegt auch die Seite brach. Die meisten Neuigkeiten der letzte Zeit sind schon überall verkündet worden. Tony Iommi's "Dep Sessions" sollten mittlerweile sowohl in Europa als auch in Amerika erhätlich sein. Ich habe hier einen Scan des zugehörigen Promosheets hinterlegt. Geezer Butler arbeitet mit Sänger Clarc Brown an seinem dritten Soloalbum "Ohmwork", Veröffentlichung irgendwann 2005. Auf twindragonsmusic.com findet man auch ein paar aktuelle Europa-Tourdaten von Tony Martin.

Auf dem Tony Iommi Messageboard wird der Meister demnächst ein paar Fragen persönlich beantworten, ferner ist eine große Verlosung geplant. Vorbeischauen lohnt sich also! Tony Martin ist weiterhin Teil von Whole Lotta Metal und wird damit dieses Jahr noch ein paar Auftritte in England absolvieren. In Italien gibt es eine neue Tribute-Band The Warning.
In eigener Sache: ein Sammler aus meinem Bekanntenkreis löst gerade seine LP-Sammlung auf - die aktuelle Verkaufsliste kann man HIER finden! Bei interesse email an hilmar@black-sabbath.de !

Latest News!

Please click here for old Black Sabbath News!

I did a nice banner which owner of a Black Sabbath page can use to put links to this site:

www.black-sabbath.de

As some of you might have noticed, various parts of www.black-sabbath.de have been offline during the last couple of weeks. The reason was a letter send by a group called IFPI (www.ifpi.org) towards my provider. Even it is allowed - due to the at least German copyright law - to use seven times of each song for free, the record industry seems to have certain problems with the mp3-tracks at the bootleg archive. As long as I do not know what exactly is the deal with illegal or not, I will keep the mp3-stuff offline.

The tourdates and bands for this years Ozzfest 2004 have been announced - see knac.com . Tony Martin will go on tour in may 2004 through England as part of "Whole Lotta Metal".

At billward.com the brand new track "The Dark Half Hour" from the upcoming album Beyond Aston can be downloaded as an MP3 file - highly recommended! The new Dio-DVD from the Sacred Heart tour is going to be released at march, 23th through Rhino Home Video. The lader also released in prepartion of the soon coming Black Sabbath Black Box a new single "Paranoid / Iron Man" - photo scan can be found here. As announced Jeff Pilson will enter together with Dio the studio in april in order to record the new album with the band, but he will not be available for the tour. Known tourdates so far Dio 2004: 4th aug Karlsruhe (Germany), 5th aug Nurnberg - Hirsch (Germany).

Again there have been some months of silence at www.black-sabbath.de - as usual when I am running out of time then the activities on the website are doing down as well. Most of the latest news from the past months already have been spread around quite heavily. Tony Iommi's "Dep Sessions" should be released and available now everywhere in Europe as well as America. I put online here a scan of the corresponding promo sheet. Geezer Butler is working now together with singer Clarc Brown on his third solo album, probably called "Ohmwork" and scheduled for release somewhere in 2005. Please see twindragonsmusic.com for a couple of up-to-date European tour dates for Tony Martin.

At the Tony Iommi Messageboard the riff-master itself is going to answer a couple of questions within the next few weeks. Additionally a big giveaway contest is planed as well. So join the message board! Tony Martin is still a member of the Whole Lotta Metal show and will do some additional dates this year in England. In Italy a new Black Sabbath tribute band called The Warning established.
A personal thing: a buddy of mine and known collector sells most of his Black Sabbath record collection - the up-to-date for sale list can be found HERE ! If you are interested in some items please send an email tp hilmar@black-sabbath.de !
