It will probably will be a massive disappointment to us all but it might not be so let's hold back our opinions until we actually hear the damn thing.

I am personally stoked to be seeing them in December even if they are old farts because even at my 40+ age, I never got to see them and pleased to see a band that haven't reformed just to play golden oldies and have gone into the studio to see if the old magic is there.

If the end product is crap I will be the first to admit it but it could be golden and life doesn't stop at 30!

It's because I've seen so much hype over the years, of older artists looking to make another album, which has usually turned out to be a pile of tosh. There is always I reckon the 10% chance that I'm wrong and nobody more than me would love to see Black Sabbath put out a great album. Let's just say I'm not expecting them too.

I'm a strong believer of that phrase and the life begins at 40 one as well. But when it comes to bands I've always struggled to accept my favourite artists getting old and in some ways I always like to remember them how they were.

Ozzy has released a lot of stuff lately that I'd rather not even try listening to, just based on the singles I've heard on the radio.

I'll probably listen to Dio Sabbath before I listen to this album. That video at the beginning of the thread seemed promising for about a minute. Once the heavy guitar kicks in you think the song might take off, but then it gets quiet again, and Ozzy starts singing, and it all falls apart. tl;dl

I'm not keen on the start of it but when it really gets into it, it's brilliant. Seeing them in December at the London O2! Saw them last year at Download Festival, Ozzy jumping around the stage like a crazy man!

This is off topic but thought I'd post, wasn't Ozzy clean for like 20 years or something? Didn't drink or do drugs at all, then recently he admitted he had been doing drugs again?

I'd been under the impression Ozzy had been clean & sober since the early 90s but I saw a documentary about him a few months back and it turns out he didn't get clean until he saw himself in such a state on the first series of The Osbournes.

I had heard that as of very recently, he's back on it. I'm playing the new record for the first time now and I'm only on the fourth track but it's putting me to sleep.
