The Album So Bad It Made Black Sabbath Abandon Their Career!

After the success of *13* (2013), Black Sabbath planned another album and final tour. But the project was so troubled that Ozzy Osbourne declared, "It's the end of Sabbath, believe me." Health problems for Tony Iommi (lymphoma) and Ozzy, in addition to creative difficulties, killed the album. They chose to end with *The End* tour. A bittersweet ending for the pioneers of heavy metal, who preferred to leave with dignity rather than release something bad.
