Lyrically Ozzy makes some familiar anti-war statements ("Black Rain" and "Countdown's Begun"), delivers social and political commentary ("Almighty Dollar" and "Civilize The Universe"), and offers affection for his fans and loved ones ("Here For You" and "Lay Your World On Me"). Clean and sober for over two years, the self-proclaimed Prince of Darkness is in remarkably strong and healthy form on BLACK RAIN.

Six years on since 2001's largely forgettable DOWN TO EARTH, BLACK RAIN marks a bit of a comeback for Ozzy Osbourne. Ozzy's live band (featuring longtime guitarist Zakk Wylde, drummer Mike Bordin, and bassist Rob "Blasko" Nicholson) were called to arms at Oz's Los Angeles home studio to deliver the kind of heavy grooves and down-tuned hard rock that sate fans old and new. Wylde's trademark vibrato and false harmonics on the opening track, in particular, set a hard-hitting tone for this fresh set of tracks.

Personnel: Ozzy Osbourne (vocals); Zakk Wylde (guitar); Blasko (electric bass); Mike Bordin (drums).

5 stars Great! And he's sober!
This is one of Ozzy's best cds ever. Possible the best. This is also heavy. I love it, it also comes with a code to get free Ozzfest tickits. I love this album, my favorite tracks are I Don't Wanna Stop, Black Rain, Lay Your World On Me, and God Bless The Almighty Dollar.

4 stars Much Better Than I'd Anticipated!
After reading all the negative reviews (which I usually take with a grain of salt) I went out and purchased "Black Rain" and sure enough it was pretty dang good. Can't see giving it a one or two star review - it's definately better than that! Ozzy and Zakk are still a lethal combination and a good majority of the songs (ex. "Not Going Away", "Silver", "Civilize The Universe", and "Countdown's Begun") just plain smoke. This is anything but a boring cd!

1 star Boring.
First of all, I was really hoping a return to form with this album but all we get is a polished version of Black Label Society left overs with Ozzy on vocals. 3 songs are decent but the rest is just flat out boring. After i listened to this several times I listened to "the ultimate sin" and remembered what OZZY was all about...As much as I respect Zakk as a guitarist he is nothing compared to Randy or Jake. This is just a flat out boring album. Down To Earth was better than this.

At first glance, Halford's entry into the crowded holiday market looks like a parody. Heavy metal and Christmas make for strange bedfellows, and WINTER SONGS' pastoral cover art -- which depicts Rob Halford staring wistfully (with a goatee and shades) into a soft, snowy pine forest -- screams Spinal Tap. That said, the Judas Priest frontman approaches yuletide standards like "We Three Kings" and "What Child Is This?" with the same conviction that he applied to Priest classics like "Electric Eye" and "Freewheel Burning" -- it probably helps that most traditional Christmas hymns tend to fall ...

Though former Runaways guitarist Lita Ford has been absent from the recording industry since 1997, she hasn't exactly been idle. After releasing Kiss Me Deadly, her final album after a string of them in the '80s and '90s, the music scene -- and the industry with it -- changed, and alternative ruled the airwaves. Ford got married to Jim Gillette, former vocalist with hair metal rockers Nitro, and started a family. In addition, she relocated to the Caribbean. Wicked Wonderland is uncharacteristic of the pop-metal she released a decade ago. It's an in-your-face metal record, but ultimately it's a very studied and calculated 21st century pop-metal record. It's an album with explicit sexual content, examining S&M, bondage, power exchanges, and all manner of kink and crave in lyrics, words, and sleeve images. Ford wrote all of these songs with her co-producers Greg Hampton and Gillette. Gillette is also either a duet partner or backing vocalist on every track here. Hampton handles bass, keyboard, and other sonic duties, and there are a pair of drummers who alternate in Chris Collier and Stet Howland. The album's first single (and longest track), "Bed," was released exclusively to Stockroom.com, one of the leading suppliers of S&M and bondage gear on the internet. Ford claims that she and her husband ...

Digitally remastered by Joseph M. Palmaccio (Sterling Sound, New York, New York). September 18, 1983 is a day that will go down in Kisstory. It was then that Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, and replacement members Vinnie Vincent and Eric Carr took off their signature makeup and revealed themselves on MTV. LICK IT UP was released, and a new chapter unfolded. Using the same production team as CREATURES OF THE NIGHT, Michael James Jackson, Simmons and Stanley came up with the same bone crunching sound as CREATURES, but with a slightly more polished feel. "Exciter" kicks off the album with a machine gun riff, which leads into Gene Simmons proclaiming he's "Not For The Innocent". The title track was a modest hit in the U.S., faired better in the U.K. and made for quite an entertaining video. "All Hell's Breakin' Loose" is a gritty streetwise track where Paul Stanley actually raps! "And On ...

Randy Mcstine Guitarizm CD  (2005)

Black Rain album
CD $17.75
"Guitarizm", the phenomenal new studio disc from young, gifted guitar "prodigy" Randy McStine, features 13 trax (61 minutes) of mega-awesome, unbelievably killer, intense, powerful, mind-blowing instrumental heavy guitar "shred" that stands up to some of the most outstanding guitar music you've ever heard. "Guitarizm" is an incredible "TOTAL GUITAR" statement from an incredible guitarist. Randy McStine (named after Randy Rhoads) has been playing guitar since age five (5) and half of the "Guitarizm" disc was recorded when he was only twelve (12) years old (!!!)including a spellbinding "encore" version of "The Loner" which is worth the price of admission alone. Randy McStine is without a doubt one of the best young guitar players you have ever heard and his guitar playing & music is right up there with the best of them including the most seasoned accomplished players in the world. Despite his young age, (skeptics take note: it's not a gimmick) Randy McStine's incredible guitar playing includes all of the classic elements (technique with feel + substance = TOTAL GUITAR) that define classic guitarists, complete with an incredible sense of depth, maturity and authority that add up to make him a true legitimate guitar hero of the highest caliber. Not only is his guitar playing phenomenal beyond belief and way beyond his young age, on "Guitarizm" he has written & recorded powerful, stand-out, material that far surpasses and goes way beyond the norm of most instrumental guitar discs. "Guitarizm" is an incredible instrumental guitar "shred" disc that actually features strong memorable "songs" to back up his incredible, talented powerful guitar playing. "Guitarizm" is all about substance and style and not about "shred for the sake of shred", although there is more than enough insane over the top "shred factor" displayed on "Guitarizm" to satisfy even the most hard-core heavy guitar "shred" freaks out there in guitarland! Randy McStine is definitely the REAL deal when it comes down to REAL guitar music. "Guitarizm" is an awesome mind-blowing instrumental heavy guitar disc that is HIGHLY recommended to fans of awesome players like JOE SATRIANI, GARY MOORE, JEFF BECK, ERIC JOHNSON, STEVE MORSE, PAT TRAVERS, RONNIE MONTROSE, BLUES SARACENO, PAUL GILBERT, STEVE LUKATHER, MICHAEL LANDAU, STEVE VAI, VINNIE MOORE, DOUG ALDRICH, ANDY TIMMONS, ...
