13 is a consistent record. The performances are good and there are real moments of whatever the doom metal equivalent of “ecstasy” is; the build up of opening track The End Of Beginning is dark and moving, Zeitgeist references Planet Caravan to great, moving effect, and Dear Father is a heart-wrenching masterpiece. The record also plays as a whole album that is meant to be listened to from front-to-back. It opens heavy, has a lull, and closes strong. 13 is beefy, Geezer’s bass sits perfectly in the mix, Tony sounds awesome and the choice to keep Ozzy in his natural range was the right decision. Brad does a good job, though certainly he doesn’t ape the jazz feel from the early records particularly well. 13 is an enjoyable album. Also, it's a melancholy trip down memory lane with old friends you know won’t be coming back again. Read full review

As long as I have heard of Black Sabbath, I've only recently became interested in them after hearing their Albums Headless Cross and Tyr. I have neither album as of yet, but someday I will. Long live rock and roll.

Great album, reminiscent of their classics of old! Incredibly, it seems the well of musical ideas never runs dry for guitarist and writer Tony Iommi. Worth every penny.
