Tony Iommi - 'Stormwatcher' (official music video)

My ship is loaded with darkness
The years of our world in demise
My walls are coated with sorrow
I can hardly remember the light
But the oceans of hope they keep calling
As I cut through the waves in my sky
And my broadside still fires on treason
My weatherworn faith never lies, no

I’ll sail my dreams away to blue horizons
Far from the waters that I see
Anchoring my vision in a brand-new dawning
To seal the pain that never leaves
The Stormwatcher bleeds

Let the crosswinds carry me

Confined to my quarters of shadow
Those demons I can’t let you see
Inside this logbook of travels
Captains of lost legacy, yeah

The Watcher navigates when winds are rising
His compass pointing through the rain
Standing steady at the helm in his eyes a warning
A dark crescendo he knows well
The Stormwatcher’s hell

Now my black ship lays scattered and broken
On a seabed of ghosts that won’t die
I’ll be firing my cannons tomorrow
You’ll sing the songs that I cry

The future never sleeps,
The time is running
Sailing on wings of destiny
Somewhere on the outline
Waits the cloudless morning
A place your heart it longs to be
Stormwatcher screams

Pushing through the blackest night,
find your spirit, bring the light
The Stormwatcher’s hell

Δισκογραφική επιστροφή μετά από 13 έτη (τόσα πέρασαν από τον κύκνειο άσμα των Black Sabbath, το full length album "13") για τον Tony Iommi. "From the Dark" ο τίτλος του νέου του προσωπικού δίσκου και έχει προγραμματισθεί να κυκλοφορήσει στα τελειώματα του τρέχοντος μήνα (στις 23 Οκτωβρίου 2026) σε cd (με δύο επιπλέον τραγούδια), διπλό βινύλιο και σε ψηφιακή μορφή μέσω της δισκογραφικής εταιρείας BMG.

Πολύ ενδιαφέρουσα η συνεργασία του Βρετανού κιθαρίστα με τον τραγουδιστή Jørn Lande (βλ. Beyond Twilight, Ark, Jorn, Masterplan, The Snakes, Brazen Abbot, Allen - Lande κλπ), ενώ συνεισφέρουν επίσης οι Mike Exeter στα πλήκτρα (Judas Priest, Heaven & Hell, Halford κλπ), Becky Baldwin στο μπάσο (Mercyful Fate, Fury) και Karl Brazil (τύμπανα).

Δελτίο τύπου: «Founding member of Black Sabbath and the godfather of heavy metal returns with his first new solo music in 21 years and his first full length release since Black Sabbath’s final album, 13.

Across eight inventive, expansive and absorbing tracks, Tony and his long-term producer Mike Exeter have created one of 2026’s defining rock albums.

Sonically heavy and rich in musical textures, it sees Tony bring to life a musical vision long-in-the-making and features some of the finest guitar performances of his career alongside vocalist, Jorn Lande, drummer Karl Brazil and bassist, Becky Baldwin.»
