Black Sabbath Detail ‘The End’ DVD Release, Confirm Street Date
The End is upon us. Black Sabbath wrapped up their touring career earlier this year in their hometown of Birmingham, then put together a concert film that screened in theaters last month, and now we're coming to the end of the cycle with a Nov. 17 DVD street date now set for The End film.
Credited by many for starting the birth of heavy metal, Black Sabbath put together an impressive string of albums in the '70s before Ozzy Osbourne moved on from the group. Sabbath continued to record with varying results in the years post Osbourne and while there were onstage reunions, the singer didn't return on a studio album with the band until 2013's 13 disc.
With the members of Sabbath getting on in age, the group decided to stage a massive worldwide farewell tour that culminated on Feb. 4 this year in Birmingham at Genting Arena with an impressive show highlighting some of their biggest hits and fan favorites. Songs like "Fairies Wear Boots," "Snowblind," "War Pigs," "Iron Man," "Children of the Grave" and "Paranoid" filled the set list, and you can see the full track listing for the DVD and Blu-Ray below.
In addition to the show, fans purchasing the collection will get "The Angelic Sessions," made up of five bonus tracks recorded days after the final show that include "The Wizard," "Wicked World," "Sweet Leaf," "Tomorrow's Dream" and "Changes."
A limited deluxe collector's edition set will feature The End on DVD and Blu-Ray, as well as double CD, the Angelic Sessions on CD (all housed in gatefold card sleeves), a 32-page bound book on heavyweight stock, a metal Winged Demon pin bad, a replica of The End tour laminate and three plectrums (all housed in a DVD-height two-piece rigid mirror board box).
“Because it was Birmingham, it was a special night for us,” said guitarist Tony Iommi of the show. “It was great to look out and know that all these people have come to see us. What a great feeling. There’s nothing like it”. Bassist Geezer Butler added, “It will never be ‘The End’ for me. I’ll always be a part of Sabbath, and Sabbath will always be a part of me."
