Free Music Notes for Prince of Darkness

Free Music Review: What the hell is wrong with you people?
Hit: 5 Stars

First off, I am a die hard Sab freak, and I have always been an advocate for Ozzy. This compilation represents Ozzy. Period.
Secondly, the imbeciles who say the album is a rip-off should note that a rip-off would include blank discs.
You want to believe that the record company is just trying to make money, and Ozzy's just trying to make money.
Record companies, now pay attention, you miserable ungrateful nitwits, are in a business. They ARE trying to make money. This is how they can afford to keep making disks. Without money, they can't make them, they go bankrupt, and you don't get new music to bitch about. It's simple supply and demand. If it weren't for them, you wouldn't have an Ozzy, a Black Sabbath &c., &c., &c.
Ozzy needs money in order to survive. This is his job (and I know 99.9% of you idiots out there that slammed the compilation sure as hell don't know what that is). If you had a job, you might just understand. Like it or not, he is an entertainer, in the entertainment business. He (and his wife, who did, by the way, drag his ass out of the gutter for your amusement) does this job because he has admitted he probably could not do anything else (unlike you morons, who can barely type and spell, you illiterate junkie b@st@rds).
I get sick of hearing this guy sold out or that guy sold out. I want you dregs of humanity to pry open the sewage tanks you refer to as your "brain" and ask yourself the following: If a record exec offered you more money than your alcohol-addled minds could ever hope to grasp, are you HONESTLY saying you wouldn't dance like the little unevolved Rhesus monkeys I know you are all dying to be? In case you don't understand, if you answered "yes" to that question, then you are absolutely filled with your own excreta, and should be put completely out of our misery, as you are a waste of space and air.
If you answered no, then you are at least being honest.
As for the compilation, I loved all the old songs, even the cheesy ones. I grew up with this music, and the cover songs were very cool (Working Class Hero was always my favorite Lennon song), and I feel that the schmucks who whine about the compilation obviously have no idea the kind of work that goes into any of these songs (yes, even Born to Be Wild). These guys couldn't come up with a decent guitar riff to save their lives.
Heavy Metal has gone through a process of evolution over the years, and some of it not for the better. It's become a sort of devolution in musicianship, a loss of craft. Metallica is the most recent of these bands to "devolve" over time. Talkabout sell outs: "We're gonna make a crappy album and then put out a crappy movie about making it." I mean, honestly, are these guys fooling anybody?
Say what you want about Ozzy, but one must admit 3 things:

He can still carry a tune, unlike Metallica (who sort of never really could) or any vox inferni (cookie monster) band (see Slayer, Cannibal Corpse, Superjoint Ritual), any wanna-be garage band (Strokes, White Stripes, even The Darkness) or any latter-day alt band.
He can still handle a crowd, and is easily the center of attention ANYWHERE.
His band, any band he puts together, still rocks.
He ain't a burnout, and he ain't pathetic. Anyone who says he is must be really pathetic, since he's making and made money hand over fist, for writing his own songs, getting people to record them, and having people listen to them enough to want to buy them and own them.
Has anybody paid YOU for your jagoff opinion? Now that's pathetic.

The compilation kicks ass people. Buy it. Show Ozzy some love.

Prince of Darkness Poster

Limited Edition Four CD Box Set. CDs One and Two Feature Ozzy's Greatest Hits. CD Three is a Collection of Tracks with Collaborations from Other Artists, Including Primus, Therapy, was Not Was, Miss Piggy, Motorhead, and More. CD Four features Previously Unreleased Cover Songs by Ozzy, Including Tracks Originally Written by the Beatles, King Crimson, the Animals, and More.
Not entirely a career retrospective and decidedly not a vault raid that reveals the junk in the trunk, this four-disc collection chronicles Ozzy?s hot-burnt and all-too-brief Blizzard Of Ozz and Diary Of A Madman post-Black Sabbath era with Randy Rhoads and also the long road the Ozzman traveled in search of a guitarist that could ever come close to matching his late friend?s creative spark. Listening to material from albums such as Bark At The Moon and The Ultimate Sin reveals that even when Osbourne wasn?t flying all that high musically he did keep evolving and, in the often risk averse world of heavy metal, he often took chances that could have potentially alienated core fans ("Thank God For The Bomb" reveals that Ozzy may care about the planet but he doesn?t possess the same knack for politics as Bob Dylan) but made them embrace him even more. He managed to hit another career high with guitarist Zakk Wylde and the No More Tears album which provides some of the second disc?s finest moments. ("Mama I?m Coming Home" proves one of the underrated balladeer?s most poignant moments.) But the back end of this collection shines as much as its front with a disc that compiles various collaborative efforts, including a tussle with Miss Piggy on "Born To Be Wild" and a strange detour with Was (Not Was) on "Shake Your Head (Let?s Go To Bed)." The real gem is the fourth platter which finds Ozzy covering some of his favorite tunes from the past, including a moving and wholly accurate reading of John Lennon?s "Working Class Hero," a song that almost seems to have been written with Osbourne in mind. Ozzy may be the prince of darkness but he?s also the king of heavy metal and this set demonstrates, once more, exactly why. -- Jedd Beaudoin
