As Ozzy Osbourne has aged, his desire to make music has only seemed to grow. Despite several farewell tours and health scares, he always returns. There’s nothing especially unique or groundbreaking about Osbourne’s 13th studio album “Patient Number 9,” it is a fun experience celebrating music and life.

It’s what makes Ozzy the true undead prince of darkness.
Being the face of one of the most influential metal bands ever, Ozzy Osbourne earned his place as the Prince of Darkness.
