Black Sabbath

In May 2013, Black Sabbath performed at Ozzfest Japan, marking a significant moment in their storied career. This live recording came shortly after the release of their critically acclaimed album, '13,' which debuted the same year. '13' was notable as it was the band's first studio album in 35 years featuring the original lineup of Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, and Geezer Butler, creating a nostalgic yet fresh sound that resonated with fans old and new. Interestingly, this performance was during a wider comeback for the band, highlighting their enduring influence on the heavy metal genre. Performing 'N.I.B.' live not only showcased their classic hits but also confirmed their legacy, as the song had been a staple since their self-titled debut in 1970. The atmosphere at Makuhari Messe Hall was electrifying, fusing classic tracks with a modern edge, reminding audiences why Black Sabbath remains iconic.
