Black Sabbath

Tony Iommi, guitarist for the influential British metal band Black Sabbath has been diagnosed with lymphoma. The band took to their facebook page to say:

"With the news that Black Sabbath's Tony Iommi has been diagnosed with the early stages of lymphoma, his bandmates would like everyone to send positive vibes to the guitarist at this time. Iommi is currently working with his doctors to establish the best treatment plan--the "IRON MAN" of Rock & Roll remains upbeat and determined to make a full and successful recovery.

This comes as Black Sabbath--Ozzy Osbourne (vocals), Tony Iommi (guitar), Geezer Butler (bass) and Bill Ward (drums)--are writing and recording their first album in 33 years in Los Angeles (still set for release this fall) with producer Rick Rubin. They will now go to the UK to continue to work with Tony. Further information will be released as it becomes available."

The band's reunion, detailed above, was first announced back in November and features their pre-1978 line-up. The band's last release in this incarnation was that year's Never Say Die!
