I love this disc. I am pleasantly surprised that he still has it going on. I personally think this is his finest effort in quite sometime. Anyone else have it? What do you think? Some real barn burners here

GREAT! I really want to hear your thoughts. I think this is a real gem. I haven't been this taken with an Oz record since No More Tears

Does it sound like No More Tears stuff at all? And is Zach playing on it?

Zakk is playing and oh my, what great playing it is...

This stuff is just bad ass. I don't think it is quite as showy as NMT, I mean in terms of the orchestral parts. THis is just a straight up ROCK record with balls the size of South America. I mean it has great attitude, grit, and some total smokin tracks. Over the Top, track 2 is just one of his best songs ever, and the ballads are nice too. But mainly the thing just wails and has the right attitude

It's ok. Sounds like Black Label Society with Ozzy on vocals. Sor t of a mundane release. It has a few good songs, but nothing on it comes close to Ozzy's classic work as a solo artist or with Black Sabbath. A step up from "Down to Earth", and a BIG step up from the terrible covers disc here released a few years ago, but nothing terribly exciting either IMO. I may just need to live with it a little longer to see if it grows on me.

I have a bit of a gripe about the packaging as well. The cd is packaged in a cheap, thin, grey, cardboard sleeve with no cd tray or booklet. No lyrics, no liner notes, not even a stinkin' photo. CHEAP! CHEAP! CHEAP! You'd think with such cheap packaging from a major label like Epic, they'd sell it for a discounted price however, other than the 'sales' that some stores are having for the first week of release, the average price is $15.99 or above.

I heard "I Dont Wanna Stop" and thought it was horrid. I loathe Zakk Wylde and his consitent pinch note. The single sounded like a bad Rob Zombie cover. Tre bad in my opinion. Ozzy hasnt done anything that has warranted good words from me since Ultimate Sin.

To each his own but I think I really have a "I Cant Stomach Zakk Wylde" complex or something. Laughing

I'm liking it. It will be pulled once in awhile and I can enjoy it but it's not near his classic stuff.

I won't be buying this until the regular version comes out as a jewel box or digipack. No way I'm buying the pre-release version in the chinsy cardboard sleeve just to get free Ozzfest tickets that are free anyway! Rolling Eyes
