Billboard.com reports that Ozzy Osbourne's new album will be released around Thanksgiving. (That's late November for those outside of the USA.) As previously reported, Ozzy announced that he's putting his annual Ozzfest festival on hold for 2009 while he completes work on the new album.

Osbourne and his family return to the small screen this spring on "The Osbournes: Reloaded," a new variety show on Fox.

After "Black Rain" can you blame anyone? Ozzy's older stuff is legendary. His newer releases have been an embarrassment.

Now, now, no one's going to f*** their sister. It's not worth getting THAT crazy about. Not looking to offend anyone, just stating an opinion. When compared to just about anything on MTV or the radio I'm sure the album holds up pretty well. My problem with Ozzy is the same problem I have with Metallica. While these bands have influenced metal immensely, the music has continued to evolve beyond them. The bar has been raised by bands such as Lamb of God, Opeth, and Mastodon.(who I think are great bands) Even some younger bands such as Trivium or Children of Bodom,(although I don't listen to much of either band) and the torch kept burning by bands like Judas Priest and Iron Maiden who continue to kick just as much a$$ as they did back in the day. Both aforementioned bands Metallica and Ozzy churn out mostly stock, radio friendly hard rock. More in the vein of bands such as Creed or Nickelback. While they do sell alot of records I feel they have moved out of the metal circle by becoming more mainstream. With the exception of maybe Death Magnetic, the music is no longer metal. I will continue to respect both of them on the basis of their former track record, but I feel they need to step up to the plate and bring a better game than they have in the past few years to impress like they did in the past. Maybe this next album will once again portray Ozzy as the force of nature he used to be. I do hope so and I wish him the best.

i'm not saying i hate pro tools i'm just saying ozzy's producer on black rain took pro tools way too far, he chopped everything up and clicked and dragged to make a commercially acceptable album that the musicians really had no creative control over.

dudeman: I aoplogize then. I agree that Black Rain was over produced, but that's what Sharon paid the producer to do. It's unfortunate, but I believe you will see more of the same on all of Ozzy's albums. As Netro pointed out, Ozzy is a business now.

The song's arrangements are hammered out before they're recorded. Using pro tools and cutting and pasting sh** doesn't making a band sound commercialized. Pro Tools has nothing to do with anything.

Yeah, I have to say that I thought Black Rain sounded way overproduced and knowing Ozzy's age and performances, could think of nothing else except how cut and pasted the entire thing sounded and probably was. I love Ozzy, but just didn't care for the album at all.
