Veteran rockers Black Sabbath are back on top again. The Ozzy Osbourne led British rock band is topping the UK album charts with 13. 43 years after their last number one album, Black Sabbath's 2013 album is on top once again. 13 is the band's first studio album in 35 years and this weekend they reached number one in the UK according to the Official Charts Company.

Front man, Ozzy Osbourne told the Official Charts Company that he is in shock. "The success of this album has blown me off my feet," Osbourne said. "We've never had a record climb the charts so fast." Black Sabbath held off Liam Gallagher's band Beady Eye whose album BE came in second place. Meanwhile, Robin Thicke topped the single charts for the third week in a row with his single "Blurred Lines."

This is great news for Osbourne, who not too long ago, revealed that he had relapsed after being sober from drinking and drugs. There were rumors of marital trouble between Sharon Osbourne and Ozzy after the relapse. However, The Daily Mail reports that the couple was spotted together last week for Black Sabbath's album launch in New York.

Ozzy's daughter Kelly also opened up about her dad's relapse saying that he is a "real man" for admitting his mistake. "He's a real man," Kelly told Cosmopolitan. "Most people would hide, and he doesn't. It doesn't make me love him any less."

Kelly opened up about her father's addictions in the interview with Cosmopolitan. "(Ozzy's) an addict; I'm an addict," Kelly explained. "It's going to be one of those things we battle for the rest of our lives," she said. "I take the necessary precautions. If you're not happy and healthy, it's not worth any of it. Everyone says sex, drugs, and rock and roll are fun. It ain't fun. It is not something to glorify."
