Initial pressings of DOWN TO EARTH will include regular audio tracks as well as multimedia computer files. The Enhanced portion includes live perfomance footage of Ozzy Osbourne performing with Randy Rhodes. Six years of waiting for a ... Full Descriptionnew album had impatient Ozzy fans biting the heads off of live animals, but DOWN TO EARTH finally arrived. Whereas OZZMOSIS may have harkened back to Ozzy's early days of Black Sabbath, EARTH is unmistakably solo Ozzy. First single "Gets Me Through" is a radio-friendly thank you to his fans in which he exclaims "I'm not the anti-Christ or the iron man." The piano intro is reminiscent of "No More Tears." Piano is also featured in "Dreamer" and "Running Out Of Time," two of The Ozzman's most well crafted ballads. Ozzy maturing? Yes, but in a GOOD way.
Things get heavier on "No Easy Way Out," featuring the driven guitar wizardry of longtime collaborator Zakk Wylde. Joe Holmes, Ozzy's road guitarist of recent years lends his writing talents to "That I Never Had" and "Junkie" (a midtempo rocker telling the tale of a desperate addict). "You Know (Part 1)" is a wonderful acoustic cut about Ozzy's fatherhood role. Anchored by the fantastic rhythm section of Robert Trujillo and Mike Bordin, the playing on EARTH is exceptionally tight. Tim Palmer's production steers Osbourne in a melodic direction, as the album's use of strings, synth, and background vocals complements some of Ozzy's best vocal performances in years.

one of Ozzy's best
The best Ozzy album in years. It was worth the wait, "Gets me Thorugh", will become a classic Ozzy song and will be played for years to come. I play the CD at work all the time, at least 3 times in the 8hrs I am at work. Love you OZZY.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No OZZY & ZAK do it again
While some might find this CD a little boaring,I myself belive this is growing,Frist Ozzy is no young kid making the same old same old,this is a Vet teaming up with old friends to answer what true Ozzy fans have been asking for !!!!! something new and as far as I can see Zak Wylde also has not missed a beat. For me, who has listened to Ozzy for 30 yrs this is a great Cd and one that will grow on you with each new listen

Let us all be thankful that Ozzy's retirement didn't stick. It supposedly lasted for three days, after which he got bored and started working on this project. Heavy, riff-intensive tunes, progressive song structures and a little psychedelia give OZZMOSIS a definite Sabbath flavor. Ozzy must have been in touch with whatever inspired early classics like PARANOID and MASTERS OF REALITY. Witness the extremely chunky "Thunder Underground," which can stand up next to "Sweet Leaf" and "Symptom Of The Universe" as an archetype of hard rock. The trippy guitar in "Ghost Behind My Eyes" and "Denial" are not some young Ozzy-wannabe going for a retro sound--this man was there, "Planet Caravan"ing.
Still, this heavy metal daddy in touch with his roots is also hip to the genre's latest sound. OZZMOSIS has a live, up-front feeling, thanks to producer Michael Beinhorn (Red Hot ...

I don’t even like coffee. The smell, anything with a frap, or mocha grande I really can’t stand. But yet I play mostly in coffee houses, that's irony. Welcome to my bio, my name’s Steve. In the summer of '06 I finished recording, after months and months of studio work, a jazzy pop acoustic album which I named California Sky. I’ve been playing out, doing shows, since the beginning of ’03. Slowly getting better every time until at last I can say that I’d listen to myself if that weren’t weird. My sound is best defined as intelligent folk-jazz, but lately I’ve been getting more and more into rock and I’ve been experimenting with effects and looping, building counter-melodies on top of each other. So I guess you could say that’s ...
