Ozzy/Black Rain???? (no sir, I don't like it).

[ZANEX]

I thought this release was suppose to be a return to "Diary Of A Madman", "Blizzard Of Ozz", or "picks up where No More Tears left off". I don't think so. I only like about4-5/10 songs on the album. Out of the songs I do like I barely like them: I Don't Wanna Stop, Trap Door, Civilize The Universe, 11 Silver. Other songs like Almighty Dollar, I'm Not Going Away, & the 2 ballads, Lay Your World On Me & Here For You, are just horrible in my opinion. Anyway, I guess it better than the past few Ozzy releases (Ozzmosis, Down To Earth), but that's not saying much. I love Ozzy's earlier work and I guess I was expecting a "return to form" There is some good music/guitar work?etc... but nothing really stands out.

You get excited about cds that most people would find sketchy in the first place a lot huh?

 

[mReEtTaIlRsEkD]

looooove ozzmosis

ozzy is actually very relevant on this board

 

[BlueSky]

ozzy is done for. Saw bs in '05 and his voice was totally shot. If you can picture a kid with down syndrome winning into a speaker in-front of 10,000 people than you can imagine what it was like. Plus zack is a wanker. End of story.

p.s. I'm not trying to incur the wrath of his skanker wife either. I'm just callin it as I sees it.

 

[mReEtTaIlRsEkD]

all that had nothing to do with anything. warrel cites ozzy as god and a primary influence. his new album is a somewhat relevant topic.

 

[BlueSky]

How is it off topic in any way? I simply stated how ozzy is done for, and in some way most people should understand this by now, and therefor shouldn't except anything good to come from him. I never said this thread wasn't relevant in the first place. Anyhow it's not a big deal.

You want to know why? You REALLY want to know why?!

Two words:

Zakk Wylde.

 

[El Stormo]

Ozzy? I didn't know anyone was still waiting for his new album?

 

[deathstrike from hell]

I hear ozzy is quite good as karaoke these days. Considering he lips syncs.

no, he has a teleprompter and his voice sounds clearly awful live

looooove ozzmosis

[Super Mahrio]

Ozzmosis is my fave by far..
and i found little to be wrong with Black Rain..(although some tunes sound like mere filler)

 

[Dead Winter]

How can anyone not like Ozzmosis? I don't even like Ozzy and I like Ozzmosis.

I think Ozzy is "done for". As far as Zakk, he rules at guitar.
