Max Reebo’s Pick of the Week: “Under the Graveyard”

December 9, 2019 at 9:42 am | Posted in Max Reebo Pick of the Week, Music, Regular Feature | Leave a comment

Max Reebo’s pick this week is “Under the Graveyard” by Ozzy Osbourne.

Ozzy has been around for a while, whether doing music with Black Sabbath or releasing songs on his own. His latest single “Under the Graveyard” will come out next month on his new album Ordinary Man. This is his first single in nine years, and it will be out on his twelfth studio album. For this song you’ve got Ozzy on vocals, Andrew Watt on guitar, Duff McKagan (Guns N’ Roses) on bass, and Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers) on drums.

As an Ozzy fan, I’m looking forward to the new album next month.
