The legendary Black Sabbath singer Ozzy Osbourne said in an interview with Metal Hammer that he already has 15 songs done for his new studio album. It will be his second work with Andrew Watt that also produced his most recent album Ordinary Man (2020). There is no information about who will play on the record, the last one had names like Slash (Guitar) and Chad Smith (Drums).
Ozzy Osbourne said about his upcoming studio album:
“I’ve done 15 tracks. It’s kept me alive you know. These past two years I’ve been in a terrible fucking state between the accident [Ozzy seriously injured himself after falling at home in 2019] and then the pandemic. It’s kept me sane. I’ve needed the music. I struggle a bit, but slowly but surely we’re getting there. My only concern right now is finishing the bloody thing. We’ve got the same production time as the last time. So there’s definitely going to be some similarities. But you’ll just have to wait and see what you think.”
“I’m missing home. Right now I can’t get on a fucking plane. But as soon as I can, I’m coming home!”
