'Iommi', the debut solo album from Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath released October 17, 2000! It features "Black Oblivion" which was co-written and sung by Billy Corgan. Corgan also played bass on the track and provided additional guitar. Two songs were apparently written with Corgan, but only one could be used.

Before the release of the album, a rough mix of "Black Oblivion" dated November 6, 1998 was made available to fans, and at the time the song was known as "Firewall".

Corgan recently told Kerrang! magazine: "Tony Iommi from Black Sabbath, he's my hero, and Tony wrote those riffs that, when you hear him, it's like a movie … In my mind, I always call it 'Cosmic Sabbath.' When I would listen to Sabbath, I felt like I was peering into the universe. That's the way it made me feel, even as a little kid. So for me, a great riff has to kind of make you feel something bigger."

'Iommi' peaked at #129 on the Billboard 200 and at #43 in Germany.
