The Band members, which include Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler, aren't committing to a follow-up after releasing their album which have been produced at a gap of 18 years from the last album, reported Contactmusic.
"To me, it's been nicely rounded off now. If we did another album, it just wouldn't have the same vibe as far as I'm concerned. And with this one doing so well, the next one would have to be number one everywhere too or people would see it as a failure," said Butler.
"We'll see what happens. We made promises about another album 15 or 20 years ago and it took this long for it to come out. I don't think you'll see another one in 20 years, put it that way," he explained to Classic Rock magazine.
The group also revealed they thoroughly enjoyed working on 13 and would be content with calling it a day after that experience.
"Making 13 was such a great, memorable experience, so if that's the final chapter, we'd have to be happy," said Iommi.
