    The Prince of Darkness is now The KING of Darkness!!! Ozzy Osbourne is better than ever!!! His music is heavier than his previous albums and he has proved all other heavy metal bands, that this is how it should be!

    This album made me so happy. I didn't want to like it because i am a huge fan of Zakk Wylde but after putting it on i just felt an energy that I haven't felt from an ozzy album in a long long time.No offence to Zakk or any of the other musicians ozzy has worked with lately but this line up just works for him. Gus G is young and full of energy and it comes through in the music. I can onlyThis album made me so happy.

Gus G is young and full of energy and it comes through in the music. I can only imagine how good songs like "Let me hear you scream", "Let it die" and "Soul Sucker" would sound live. Welcome back ozzy and i cannot wait til the next album… Expand

    I tried not to like this. Really. I'd made-up my mind even before it hit the CD player. But 30 seconds into the opening track I realised that this is Ozzy Osbourne of Black Sabbath!! And the material here stands up against any Sabbs album.

    Most impressively, Osbourne's new band displays a tempo-shifting aptitude similar to vintage Black Sabbath.

    By shaking things up like he has here, he's made a record that sounds vital and refreshed. [19 Jun 2010, p.50]

    The Dark Lord of Rock and famed mumbler sounds strong - and intelligible! - on Scream.
