BSCSI

BLACK SABBATH made a rare television appearance when the band performed a new song on the season finale of “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation”. The episode aired on May 15 on CBS-TV. The band world premiered a song called “End Of The Beginning” from their new album“13″.

You can now watch the full-length “End Of The Beginning” performance below.

The episode’s plot followed the CSI team as they investigated a series of murder that resembled the sins in “Dante’s Inferno”, with the trail leading the detectives played by Ted Danson and Marc Vann to attend aSABBATH concert.

“I’m not an actor,” said SABBATH singer Ozzy Osbourne. “It’s like a hurry-up-and-wait. When you see it on TV, it’s all done, but when you’re filming, there’s a lot of stuff going on.”

He added about the band’s return to the spotlight: “It’s been a long time, but the wait has been well worth it, ’cause the album is really good. I’m really pleased with the outcome.

“It’s good fun and it’s a good way of telling people that we’re back together, you know?”

“13″ was released on June 11 and is the first SABBATH album in 35 years to feature Ozzy, bassist Geezer Butler and guitarist Tony Iommi.

Ozzy told an Australian radio station that the new album is “mindblowing,” adding, “It’s better than my wildest dreams; it’s so good.”

The drum tracks on the album were laid down by RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE sticksman Brad Wilk following original drummer Bill Ward‘s decision to bow out of the reunion.

“CSI: Crime Scene Investigation” concluded its 13th season and regularly wins its time period with nearly 12 million viewers per episode.

It is also a global ratings hit, earning the International TV Audience Award for the “most-watched show in the world” for the third consecutive year and its fifth time in seven years.
