The Best Buy Exclusive also includes the extra tracks from the Deluxe 2CD version.   This version is also sold by some retailers in Europe too as their “Deluxe Edition”.    This track is also included on both the standard Deluxe editions sold in Japan, but oddly enough the song is on Disc 1 there.   This may also be the single disc version in Germany too – unclear on this.

Spotify

Dirty Women (Live)

The Spotify service includes a live version of “Dirty Women”.  I’ve not seen that on any physical media format.  If you have, please let me know.  Otherwise, the streaming Spotify version includes the first 11, and then the live version of Dirty Women, which was taken from one of the Australian shows earlier in 2013.

• Per an interview with Geezer Butler, the name “13” was come up with by Ozzy, and at the time it was thought of, it isn’t any deeper than the fact that the album came out in 2013, and had 13 songs recorded for the project.  They ended up recording more than that later, but that was the meaning behind the name.
• Brad Wilk is formally credited in the booklet as a “special guest musician”.
• The band recorded 16 songs for the project.  Outside of the 12 listed above, the titles of the other four are: Cry All Night, Isolated Man, Season of the Dead, Hanging By a Thread.  It is not known yet where these other four tracks will surface.
• The band themselves didn’t choose what went on the album.  Which songs appeared on the album, and what was on the deluxe version etc was all done by Rick Rubin.
• The song “Age of Reason” used to be called “Epic” when the album was being recorded.
• Likewise, the song “Loner” was *NOT* called “Isolated Man” at the same time, this was confirmed to me via email by Geezer.
• A working title for Loner was “Fountain Pen”, but that was never intended to be a final release, more of an in studio joke.
• Likewise, a working title for Zeitgeist was “Moon Winnebago” – never intended to be a final name.  :)
• The first single is “God is Dead?”, and it was formally released on Apr 19, 2013, although due to time zone differences, it showed up on Apr 18, 2013 in most of the United States/North America.
• It was formally announced on January 13, 2013 that the new album’s name was “13”, and that Brad Wilk was the drummer.  This news broke due to time zone issues on Sunday night the 12th in the US.
• It was Rick Rubin’s idea to get Brad Wilk, saying he sounds like an early Bill Ward, and that sound was “needed” for this material.
• During recordings, the band spent at most 5 hours a day in studio, they didn’t want to “burn out” on the process.
• This is the the first studio album with Ozzy under the banner of Black Sabbath since 1978, and the first official “Black Sabbath” studio album of any kind since 1995 (although you could make a case for 2008’s “The Devil You Know”).
• This album was said to not be including any of the songs or work from the last attempt at a Mk I reunion album in 2001.
• This was formally announced at a well publicized press conference at the Whisky a Go-Go in Los Angeles, CA on Nov 11, 2011 (@ 11:11AM PST) – with Bill Ward.
• At the 11-11-11 press conference, Geezer Butler said that the new material “sounds like the old Sabbath style and sound”.
• The work sessions for this album that were scheduled for January 2012 were to happen in Los Angeles.  Due to Tony Iommi’s cancer diagnosis late in 2011, said work sessions were moved to Tony’s home studio in England.
• Bill Ward declined to participate in Spring of 2012 due to contractual issues.   This included all live dates from 2012 onwards as well as the recording of this album.   Ozzy, Tony, Geezer do thank him in the liner notes, one of them referring to him as “Brother Bill”.
• Adam Wakeman said that he did not play on the album, but will be there on live dates.
• I asked if the album was recorded digitally or analogue and the answer was “Yes it was recorded to Pro Tools 10 at 96kHz sampling rate”.
• Geezer Butler told me I was correct in that some of the lyrics in “End of the Beginning” are a reference to the Doctor Who TV series.  Specifically..  “Regeneration of your cybersonic soul, transformed in time and space beyond control.”   He told me that some of the lyrics from Zeitgeist are about Doctor Who as well.

• Here is a picture of the single artwork for “God is Dead?”

• Here is a picture of Tony, Geezer, Ozzy from a New Zealand Press Junket on Apr 18, 2013

• Here is a picture of the studio band with engineer Mike Exeter.  It was taken on the final day at Shangri La studios during the recording of “13”.

• Here is a picture of the band’s stage setup on the final rehearsal on April 17, 2013: 

• This is an advert from the May 26, 2013 Sunday paper in Dallas in a Best Buy ad.

• In addition to the Deluxe CD with exclusive track Best Buy was offering, they were also offering a couple of exclusives with Black Sabbath T-Shirts.  Here’s what those shirts look like, and finally what the sticker on the front of the CD purchased from Best Buy looks like:

• Here is the sticker from the Europan print of the vinyl album.

 

• This is a picture of the band from the 11-11-11 press conference:

Here are various videos relating to the “13” project.  If any of them are not playing, please let me know.  Thank you.

• Note that these lyrics are typed in by hand from the CD booklet that came with “13”.   While I’m not above making a typo, don’t go telling me the lyrics aren’t correct (which happens a lot).  If they’re in the CD booklet that way, well, then the problem is not with me.  :)

End of the Beginning

Is this the end of the beginning or the beginning of the end?
Losing control or are you winning?
Is your life real or just pretend?

Reanimation of the sequence rewinds the future to the past.
To find the source of the solution the system has to be recast.

Release your mind
Fast forward to the secrets of your code.
Your life’s on overload
Delete or save the units that make you an entity
That’s your Identity.

If you don’t know which way to go you may feel lost and confused
A Second chance your time to lose

Regeneration of your Cyber sonic soul,
transformed in time and space beyond control.
Rise up resist and be the master of your fate.
Don’t look back, live for today, tomorrow is too late.

You don’t want to be a robot ghost occupied inside a human host.
Analysed and cloned relentlessly, synthesized until they set you free.

Alright, okay, alright till they set you free.
Alright, okay till they set you free.

Free.  Free.  I’m Free.  Be Free.

I don’t wanna see you – yeah yeah yeah yeah.
I don’t wanna see you – yeah yeah yeah yeah

God is Dead?

Lost in the darkness I fade from the light
Faith of my father, my brother, my maker and Saviour
Help me make it through the night
Blood on my conscience and murder in mind
Out of the gloom I rise up from my tomb
Into impending doom
Now my body is my shrine
The blood runs free, the rain turns red
Give me the wine you keep, the bread
The voices echo in my head
Is God alive or is God dead?
Is God dead?

Rivers of evil run through dying land
Swimming in sorrow they kill, steal and borrow
There is no tomorrow for the sinners will be damned
Ashes to ashes, you can not exhume my soul

Who do you trust when corruption and lust,
Creed of all the unjust leaves you empty and unwhole
When will this nightmare be over, tell me?
When can I empty my head?
Will someone tell me the answer
Is God really dead?
Is God really dead?
To safeguard my philosophy until my dying breath
I transfer from reality into a living death

I empathize with enemies until the time is right
With God and Satan at my side, from darkness will come light
I watch the rain as it turns red
Give me more wine I don’t need bread
These riddles that live inside my head

I don’t believe that God is dead!
God is dead
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Wondering if we will meet again on the other side
Do you believe a word, what the good book says
Or is it just a holy fairytale and God is dead
God is dead
God is dead
God is dead
God is dead
Right!
But still the voices in my head are telling me that God is dead
The blood pours down, the rain turns red
I don’t believe that God is dead!
God is dead
God is dead
God is dead

He’s just a loner.
He never says hello.
A friend to no one
He’s got no place to go.

He don’t look happy
He looks through furtive eyes
He aint got nothing
No one to sympathize

He hides himself away
His secrets not revealed
As life just passes by
He keeps himself concealed

A solitary man
An enigmatic child
A riddle never solved
A prisoner exiled.

I wonder if the loner can assimilate
A life less lived alone plays devil’s advocate

Has he ever tried to be happy?
reached out from inside
someone on who he can depend
It’s getting too late to recover
He won’t stand a  chance
and into his own hell he’ll descend.  Don’t descend.

No understand of things we already know
He has to live his life and just learn how to let go.

Communication’s an impossibility
His own best friend but he’s his own worst enemy.
The secrets of his past locked deep inside his head.
I wonder if he’ll be happy when he’s dead.

Zeitgeist

Astral engines in reverse
I’m falling through the universe again
Down among the deadmen’s vision
Faded dreams and nuclear fission spent

The strings of theory are holding up the race
The puppets falling to the ground
The love I feel as I fly endlessly through space
Lost in time, I wonder will my ship be found

On this sinking ship I travel faster than the speed of light
Not so supernova burns
The black holes turn and fade from sight

The strings of theory hide in the human race
The answers buried underground
The love I feel as I fly endlessly through space
Lost in time, I wonder will my ship be found

And very soon the bomber’s moon will show us light
And as we crash we’ll pray and kiss and say goodnight.
Goodnight.

Do you hear the thunder raging in the sky?
Premonition of a shattered world that’s gonna die

In the age of reason, how do we survive?
The protocols of evil ravaging so many lives?

Mystifying silence talking peace on Earth
We should judge each other for ourselves
not what we’re worth.

Sustainable extinction, a fractured human race.
A jaded revolution disappears without a trace

Always felt that there’d be trouble
Mass distraction hides the truth
Prozac days and sleepless hours
Seeds of change that don’t bear fruit

These times are heavy and you’re all alone
The battle’s over by the war goes on

Politics, religion, love of money too.
It’s what the world was built for but not for me and you

Just before you die they say you’ll see your life go flashing by
Cold dark endless night, to burn in hell or bathe in Heaven’s light.

Well I don’t want to live forever but I don’t want to die.
I may be dreaming but whatever, I live inside a lie.

Days pass by too son, waiting for the rising of the moon
No escape from here, facing death but is your conscience clear

I may be dreaming or whatever, watching my life go by
And I don’t want to love forever but I don’t want to die

Well, I don’t want to live forever but I don’t want to die.
I may be dreaming but whatever, I live inside a lie

Don’t want to live forever but I don’t want to die.
Don’t want to live forever but I don’t want to die.

Born in a graveyard adopted by sin
I cultivate evil that’s living within
A preacher tried saving my black damaged soul
Possessed by a demon that had full control

The time it is coming when all life will end
With doomsday approaching to hell we’ll descend
Religion won’t save me, the damage is done
The future has ended before it’s begun

Death’s hand and the crazy, I can’t stand the light of day
Watching all the victims on their knees as they pray.
God of the almighty never answers their call
Satan is just waiting for the righteous to fall to him.

I don’t mind dying cause I’m already read.
Pray not for the living I’ll live in your head
Dying is easy it’s living that’s hard
I’m losing the battle between Satan and God.

A childhood innocence was drowned in your tears
The demons that you fought are feeding your fears
The poisoned secrets of your life stand revealed
The truth destroys you, it’s no longer concealed

Dear Father forsaken, you know what you were doing
In silence your violence has left my life in ruin
Yeah, in ruin, yeah

You preyed upon my flesh them prayed for my soul
Belief betrayed by lust the faith that you stole
Indoctrination by a twisted desire,
The catechism of an evil messiah

Dear father forgive me, I know just what I’m doing
In silence this violence will leave your life in run
Yeah, in ruin, yeah

Preacher of theocracy hiding your hypocrisy
Under a false sanctity, holy phoney empathy
You have taken my life, now it’s your turn to die

Can you sleep at night?
When you close your eyes do you think of all the pain from your lies?
Or do you deny you’re responsible for the victims of the sins you devised?

What you gonna tell them when they ask you?
Well then this is your conscience pure in your hear?
There is no exemption when you seek redemption for all the lives that you’ve torn apart

Your molestations for the cross you defiled,
A man once holy now despised and revised
You took possession while confessing my sins
And now you have to face whatever death brings, yeah

Dear father forsaken, you know what you were doing
In silence your violence has left my life in ruin, yeah
In ruin yeah, yeah, yeah
In ruin yeah.

The epidemic from a crystal lie puts you in a super overdrive
The methademic that is so hard to hide,
Insanely staring with wide eyes.

Hallucinating in a chemical hell ain’t my idea of having fun
Synthetic overload, you’re under it’s spell.
Your super nightmare’s just begun

You try to stop but it controls you.
Your love affair with it won’t last.
You’re on a suicidal ride of self-destruction,
And in the end you’re gonna crash.

You live too fast.  You live too Fast.

You look just like a dead man live,
Losing the fight for survival.
You sit and wait at hell’s fiery gate,
Waiting the Devil’s arrival – ha ha.

You love so fast you need more methademic crystal
You never sleep you just keep going’
Just push the trigger on your hypodermic pistol.
Each time you’re dying without knowing.

You live too fast.  You live too fast.

What’s the point?
It’s killing you without you even knowing.
I can tell you’ve sold your soul and hell is where you’re going.
Ha Ha, I’ll see you there.

Ahhhhhhh. Ahhhhhhh. Ahhhhhhh. Ahhhhhhh.

I wish somebody would empty my head.
I am so sorry for the things that I’ve said.
This hopeless feeling that’s living inside.
I’m just a lonely soul who’s trying to find some peace of mind.

I ain’t no hero. Who’s gonna save you?
I’ll just say hi as I’m passing right through.
I ain’t that crazy, I’m only here for the ride.
So please forgive me while I’m trying to find some peace of mind.

I don’t believe a word.
It doesn’t matter if I’m wrong or right.
Wrong or right.  It wasn’t long ago.
If tomorrow I could win the fight.  The fight.

Caught in the middle as the front line falls,
It looks like I don’t stand a  chance.
If only I could turn my life around,
How would I find the circumstance.

Read in between the lines.
Truth that is neither black nor white. Black nor White.
Just give me something real.
Broken man, still searching for the light in the night.

Caught in the middle as the front line falls.
It looks like I don’t stand a chance.
If only I could turn my life around,
Or is this just the circumstance.

Pariah from soceity
Addicted to sobreity.
A product of a virgin birth,
Another God on Earth.
Yes that’s your fantasy.

Do you believe every word I say?
Make your own truth and get out of my way

I’m your pariah, for your desire.
Ain’t no Messiah, just your pariah.

You say that you can read my mind.
Be careful of what you might find.
You think that you can be like me,
And see what my eyes see,
But you’re no friend of mine.

An Angel or the Antichrist
A symbol of your own device,
Pathetic in your own sad way.
You’re just one pill away from taking my advice.

Do you believe every word I say?
Make up your mind and get out of my way.

I’m your pariah, for your desire.
Ain’t no Messiah, just your pariah.

Do you believe that I’m from heaven?
That I descended from the sky?
The graven image of a pseudo icon,
To worship me on high.

I’m not your saviour.
I got no wings to fly.
Just your pariah,
Don’t look to me when your life is over.

I’m your pariah, for your desire.
Ain’t no messiah, just your pariah.

Ain’t no messiah, just your pariah.

Guess we’re all running out of time
So live your own life and let me live mine
To each their own to question why
We’re all just links that forge the chain of life

But who am I to interfere
Think for yourself and keep your conscience really clear

Learn from each other so they say
But no one listens to them anyway
Inactive factions stir in time
Procrastination at the scene of the crime

There’s no return, no guarantee
Accept the terms and let your fate be free be free

You gotta let yourself see
And let your feelings go free
Accept your own ability
Don’t want to end up like me

A dynasty of doubt and hate
Religion, politics, self-mutilate
The privilege of being here
All born from nothing ’til we disappear

There’s no return, no guarantee
Accept the terms and let your fate be free you’re free
