Legendary BLACK SABBATH singer Ozzy Osbourne has asked his fans to "help unscramble Ozzy's new cover art by using the hashtag #OzzyRules on Facebook and Twitter. The more you share the sooner it unlocks."

You can see the progress and learn more at this location.

It is unclear if the cover art in question will be used for Osbourne's new solo studio album, which would be the follow-up to 2010's "Scream". Ozzy's touring guitarist, Gus G., told Noisefull in a recent interview, "Ozzy wants to do another solo album, that's for sure. As far as I know, he has a contract for three more solo albums, so I don't know when he will finish them, if he'll do them and if I'm going to be a part of it, but I definitely know that he wants to do one more solo album."

In a May 2011 interview with Planet Rock, Ozzy revealed that he would go back to basics on his forthcoming CD. "On my next album, I can assure you it's going to be back to balls to the wall," he said. "I have already been writing some stuff, [working on] some ideas with my band."

Speaking to Metal Messiah Radio's "Heavy Metal Thunder" show, Ozzy stated about his planned follow-up to 2010's "Scream", "I wanna get more back down to basics with this next album.

"I haven't got a title. I've written a couple of ideas down. But I can't really give you much more information. It's not gonna take a long time, I don't think. All I can say to you is I've got a few ideas for songs, but I don't wanna say when it's going to be released because I don't know myself.

"I don't stick to a formula. I just try and experiment a lot. 'Scream' was more like a an experimental album because I didn't have a band at the time. [Guitarist] Gus [G.] came along and the guys played on the album after I'd done a lot of the work myself and my producer, Kevin Churko, in my studio."

Tefouspasdemagueule a écrit :Un peu bizzare comme démarche. Le dvd semble s'adresser aux fans de ozzy vu la rareté de certaines archives, mais en même temps il y a un best of en cd, donc avec des titres que tout le monde possède déjà en cd.
Best of dépourvu au passage de "I don't know" et "Shot in the dark" qui sont quand même des incontournables.

Bluewater Productions has announced the release of a brand new comic book biography on the life of a rock icon as part of their popular Orbit series. "Ozzy Osbourne: The Metal Madman" will be released this week and will be available in both print and digital.

Jump on board the crazy train and read about the artist who occupies a special place in the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame. As the godfather of heavy metal, Ozzy Osbourne pioneered his dark sound as the front man for BLACK SABBATH. As a solo artist, he has forged a legacy, influencing modern rock, reality television, and more. "Orbit: Ozzy Osbourne: The Metal Madman" was written by Michael L. Frizell and Jayfri Hashim with art by Hashim, and features a cover by famed horror artist Stefano Cardoselli.

"Ozzy's legacy is well known," said Frizell. "A lot of research went into creating the script. One misstep, and the fans will know! Jayfri and I wanted to respect that legend — and the fans — by giving them something both familiar and unexpected. Writing about real people is often difficult, and when it's someone like Ozzy who's made himself tough to define and is a mainstay in the tabloids, we are challenged to find new ways to tell that well-known story."

"There are some celebrities we have done that are just media sensations, then you have someone like Ozzy who defines media sensation," said Bluewater publisher Darren G. Davis. "I have respect for him and his story after working on this comic book. We have done one with his wife Sharon Osbourne that did well. The Osbournes are fascinating people."

The Orbit comic line joins Bluewater's biographical lines Fame, Female Force and Tribute, all of which have been embraced by the media, telling the life stories of Paul McCartney, Freddie Mercury, David Bowie, Prince, John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Keith Richards and more. Coming soon are comic books featuring George Harrison and the cast of "Doctor Who".

"Ozzy Osbourne: The Metal Madman" is due this week. The print version of the book is available only at Comic Flea Market at www.comicfleamarket.com, while the digital version can be download to your e-reader from iTunes, Kindle, ComiXology, DriveThru Comics, Google Play, Madefire, My Digital Comics, Overdrive, Iverse, Biblioboard, Flipkart, Axis360, Epic!, Blio, Entitle, Comicblender.com, Indie Comic Tracker, Wheeler, Scoop, Nook, Kobo and wherever eBooks are sold.
