Oh, and that "metal militia" thing is the proof that some metal fans really are total dumbasses.

And to think that Ronnie James Dio died, and this s****** f***** is still around -.-

Fuck. You.

Ozzy is a legend but by this point he's also essentially got learning difficulties. You think Ozzy chose this? hell no his management did Ozzy just see's that he'll get paid for it and signs, or rather is told to sign it.

Also you can swear on the internet, your mum won't read it.

Ozzy is the most overrated vocalist in metal, worst vocal of Black Sabbath ever, I like any album of Black Sabbath that does not have Ozzy in it, and he became a puppet show of mainstream pop culture and estamblishment, MTV dark play doll, who just makes most of the metal fans laugh at him. Some people simply do not know when it's time to retire. Btw his manager is his wife so, that's another minus ...

If no-one bitched about him, i would never have known him in the first place.

It's not that big a deal.. Early, classic Black Sabbath is untouchable, and some of Ozzy's solo material has also been great - but nowadays, as others have suggested, he's kind of a media pawn. He may come across as a bit of a tool nowadays in some ways, but he doesn't deserve any real hate IMO.

Nothing necessarily wrong with making a commercial, either. Some commercials involving aging Metal 'gods' can be fucken great, such as the recent advert for Kronenbourg lager which features Motorhead playing 'Ace of Spades' in a laid-back, bluesy style, which is actually pretty cool!

"What the fuck is going on there?" asks Ellrohir...seriously - i believe only very few of us would refuse to take money in order to remain "true"...i say honestly i wouldnt...is there anyone who dares to swear he would?

Exactly. People who hate Ozzy are bigger tools than he himself can sometimes come across. lol

Lemmy has actually been in commercials on British tv before! One for Kit-Kat, and a hilarious one for Walkers Crisps.

You also have to remember that modern bands will eventually age, and band members will do the same thing (perhaps not as bad as Ozzy... but maybe not?) and make ads etc. We could be seeing Mikael Ackerfelt (hate trying to spell his name) in a few decades advertising for an insurance company haha.

Written by Richard on 29.01.2011 at 04:35
Exactly! Hehe, I remember both those ads, it was amusing to see them again! I like how Lemmy can do that kind of thing, given his reputation for being a 'bad-ass' he can show a dry sense of humour or send himself up without being seen as a 'sell-out' or whatever.

I can certainly imagine Dani Filth doing something of that nature in a couple of decades, promoting cosmetics for aging goths.. "Because you're worth it"!
