reports: OZZY OSBOURNE s first new studio album since 2001, Black Rain, will arrive May 22 via Epic. The set was tracked at Osbourne s home studio in Los Angeles with his touring band of guitarist Zakk Wylde, bassist Blasko and drummer Mike Bordin. Fans can sample some of the new tunes on Osbourne s .
The new record is milestone for Osbourne since it s the first in his entire career he recorded sober. I thought I d never write again without any stimulation, he admits to Billboard. But you know what?
Instead of picking of the bottle I just got honest and said, I don t want life to go [to pieces].
Osbourne says, People say, Why do you keep goin to Zakk? Cause you know what?
There ain t no one else like em. He comes up with the stuff, plus the fact he s a family member. If he said to me, Ozzy, I need you to do this, will you do [it]?
I wouldn t think twice.
Before his headlining his stint on this year s free Ozzfest, Osbourne will play international dates beginning May 27 in Moscow. He is also one of the subjects of VH1 s Rock Honors, to be taped May 12 in Las Vegas for a May 24 premiere on the network.
Hey, it actually sounds pretty all right. I m somewhat surprised. Guess he might still have something to say.
Cool.
It shall own all! New Ozzy on my Birthday, greatest present ever.
