Ozzy’s first new song is nine years might be one of his best

I’ll admit it: When I heard that Ozzy had released his first new song in nearly a decade, I kinda shrugged. Conventional wisdom is that the best days artists of Ozzy’s vintage are behind them and the only stuff we want to hear from them are the big hits.

But then Ozzy comes out with something like “Under the Graveyard” and you have to re-evaluate things. Inspired largely by Ozzy’s health issues over the last year, this is pretty solid stuff.
