Ozzfest announcement is tomorrow. Be patient. Chances are the lineup will be disappointing and everyone going on about Ozzfest will just be complaining.

I dont know why you all are complaining. It looks fine. I maybe would have gotten rid of the wings but besides that its fine. Everyone is really bashing Ozzy on this album and I dont know why. I heard scream and it sounded good, better then songs on Black Rain. I guess people just like to complain about every little thing

i like the cover. there are two problems with it though. 1. it has nothing to do with "screaming". 2. there should be an iron cross on the flag.

that's it! rename the album "crusade" and put an iron cross on the flag. *patting myself on the back for my good ideas*

He's pointing in the direction of the toilet that his career has spiraled down into. Oz (#7) makes a very good point, as usual.

stupid a$$ pic for a dumb a$$ album w/ a retard a$$ name by an idiotic icon who was once a legend but it now just a walking corpse.

oz: that sux to hear but i can't wait to hear the lineup nonetheless. hopefully it's at least AS good as mayhem's, which is setting the bar at the level of disappointment alrdy. also, dumb question, but it will be a tour, right?? not just 1 or 2 dates in one phockin' place??

i guess we'll all just have to wait for tmrw then.

Watch, when the album is released, all you complainers and crybabies will love it. And don't deny it. You guys complained over Black Rain.

When I first saw this album cover. The first thing that came to mind was Iron Maiden's Eddie in his famous 'The Trooper' picture.

hollow: i'm not just another complainer/crybaby kuz i've nvr been a big fan of ozzy. i respect what he's done for metal in general, but his music just isn't my cup of tea. tbh, i don't rlly like a whole lot of metal any older than MAYBE rlly late 80's turn early 90's. oldest band i probably rlly like is metallica. but don't be mistaken, i do understand the iron maiden's eddie referrence.

I did not mind black rain. I want this ozzfest to be like the last. Rigor Mortis, The Sword, Soilent Green, Witchcraft, Goatwhore, DevilDriver, Kingdom of Sorrow, Cavalera Conspiracy. There was more good bands then bad at the last one. I highly doubt that will be same this year.

^SA, great brainstorming there brother..*golf clap*
^No greed hes not pointing at the head, hes pointing at tony iommi, and saying (in a L.T. Dan/gary sinise voice) "its go time, you and me", referring to the lawsuit and to the future courtroom rumble.....
^Damn VPNH, hostile....prince of darkness, your 1st ozzfest is gonna be this year(hopefully) bitting of dove heads, snorting ants in a drugged out state while on tour with motley crue in the 80s, numerous grouppies, one of the biggest icon's in metal, a wife that has his balls in a jar on her desk....doesnt that appeal to you as 1 kickazz metal musican?................
I know your right......dont even say it....
I ll always like ozzy, i know alot of his moves the past 5-10 years have been questionable but i dont care, to me hes done enough in his career to establish himself as a metal hero
