13 – Black Sabbath Contributed by Florian Hardwig on Jun 19th, 2013. Artwork published in 2013. Source: zipdesign.co.uk License: All Rights Reserved. The cover of the new Black Sabbath album – the first studio album with original singer Ozzy Osbourne since 1978 – uses a modified setting of ITC Serif Gothic (Herb Lubalin and Tony Di Spigna, 1972). Via @lubalincenter. For the godfathers of heavy metal the concept for 13 came from a pagan influence of a burning wicker effigy. The setting for this is based in the British countryside at dusk to really set the scene and stamp the band’s roots into the artwork. See a video of how the cover was created on Zip Design’s website (photography by Jonathan Knowles, wicker sculpture by Spencer Jenkins). Source: zipdesign.co.uk License: All Rights Reserved.
