OZZY OSBOURNE On Creating New Album Patient Number 9 - "I Can't Believe How Quickly It Comes Together"

Ozzy Osbourne, Zakk Wylde, Andrew Watt and host Billy Morrison sat down for a special "Patient Number 9 Album Special" taking listeners track-by-track through Ozzy Osbourne’s new star studded album in front of an audience of SiriusXM subscribers.

Ozzy Osbourne's "Patient Number 9 Album Special" will air on his exclusive SiriusXM channel Ozzy’s Boneyard starting tonight at midnight ET and will rebroadcast all weekend long.

Throughout their conversation, Ozzy Osbourne spoke about his new song "Immortal" and the Eddie Van Halen inspiration, as well as Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page.

Ozzy Osbourne also opening up about feeling “paranoid” about Eric Clapton following him to alcoholics anonymous.

Additionally, Ozzy spoke about his daughter Kelly Osbourne being pregnant, confirming to the studio audience, "Kelly's having a baby, you know. She's six months, she's big. She's having a boy." 

SiriusXM’s Ozzy’s Boneyard has shared the following video clips with BraveWords:

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and Grammy-winning singer and songwriter Ozzy Osbourne is streaming his new single "Nothing Feels Right" featuring guitarist Zakk Wylde. The song is a reflective, moody ballad with Wylde delivering an emotional, melodic solo. The song is featured on Ozzy's upcoming album Patient Number 9. Check out the visualizer for "Nothing Feels Right" below:

To celebrate his new Patient Number 9 album, Ozzy Osbourne has confirmed a special in-store appearance and signing at Fingerprints in Long Beach, California on Saturday, September 10, the day after the album’s release.

Attendees will need to pre-order a copy of Patient Number 9 to attend the event as Ozzy will only be signing copies of the new album. In order to sign as many copies as possible, the new album will be the only item signed. Masks will be required for all attendees and no photos with Ozzy will be permitted.

Patient Number 9 will be released on September 9 via Epic. Townsend Music has launched the pre-order for their exclusive blue & yellow split colour vinyl edition. Partial proceeds from sales of this album will be donated to Ukraine/US Special Needs Orphans through Third Wave Volunteers.

Patient Number 9 is Ozzy’s new album and the first since his critically acclaimed, worldwide, chart-topping 2020 Ordinary Man release. Produced by Andrew Watt (who handled the same duties on Ordinary Man), the new album marks Osbourne's 13th solo studio album. It’s heavy, it’s hard-hitting, it’s historic - it’s everything you’d want from an Ozzy Osbourne record and maybe more.

Working with producer Watt for the second time, Ozzy welcomed a dynamic A-list featured guests. The record boasts guitarists Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, Mike McCready of Pearl Jam, and longstanding righthand man and six-string beast Zakk Wylde who plays on the majority of the tracks. For the bulk of the album, Chad Smith of Red Hot Chili Peppers held down drums, while the late Taylor Hawkins of Foo Fighters appears on three songs. Old friend and one-time Ozzy band member Robert Trujillo of Metallica plays bass on most of the album’s tracks, with Duff McKagan of Guns N’ Roses and Chris Chaney of Jane’s Addiction supplying bass on a few songs.
