Tony Iommi<\/a> has released the second preview of his forthcoming new album,<\/a> From the Dark<\/em>. Check out “Stormwatcher” and the single’s cover art below. <\/p>\n

The new track features Jorn Lande on vocals, with bassist Becky Baldwin (Mercyful Fate<\/a>), keyboardist Mike Exeter and drummer Karl Brazil (Robbie Williams<\/a>, James Blunt<\/a>). Iommi, Exeter and Lande co-wrote “Stormwatcher,” with Lande providing all lyrics and vocal melodies. Exeter also co-produced with Iommi. <\/p>\n

“It channels something from within, something real,” Lande said of “Stormwatcher” in an official statement. “We are the captain of our own vessel, a ship crashing through unknown and sometimes challenging waters \u2013 always navigating forward, steering steady through every storm, driven by dreams of new horizons and longing for something new.”<\/p>\n

What to Expect From Tony Iommi’s New Album<\/h3>\n

Sessions for From the Dark<\/em> evolved in a “no pressure” environment, Iommi told Chuck Armstrong of Loudwire Nights<\/a>. “If nothing happened, nothing happened, then we’d do it the next time. But it did: Every time we come to record something, it’d work.”<\/p>\n

Lande has worked with Yngwie Malmsteen<\/a>, Masterplan and others. He memorably performed<\/a> with Iommi and Geezer Butler<\/a> in 2010 at London’s High Voltage Festival as part of a special tribute honoring Ronnie James Dio<\/a>, after their former Black Sabbath<\/a> bandmate passed away<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“What happened originally, I was going to do an instrumental album. I did actually do a couple of instrumentals and I thought, ‘Maybe I’d like to do it with a singer instead,'” Iommi said. “Jorn was straight away in my mind because I love the way he sings. I love his vocals, and he’s done stuff with us before.<\/p>\n

Iommi issued “World Alone” as a sneak peek on the same day he confirmed From the Dark<\/em>; its B-side was an instrumental version of the song. His first solo album in 21 years is due on Oct. 23. <\/p>\n
