I've liked them since I first heard The Real Thing in junior high, they've never released anything I didn't love, they really can't do much wrong in my book.
@tempo_n_groove - they're more than 10 years old, but the 1st two Tomahawk albums are fantastic, and way more than just solo Patton projects. John Stanier has become one of my favorite drummers after listening to that band, and Duane Dennison writes some pretty interesting stuff. Their last release Oddfellows from 2013 has some good stuff as well, but still isn't as good as either of the first two.

Mit Gas is awesome!
I forgot how heavy it was until I saw them again at the Paradise in 2013. The crowd went apeshit during Mayday & The Bird Song.
I love that band.
Edit: Capt. Midnight, Rape This Day & When the Stars Begin to Fall are incredible too... what a great f'ing album.

The band that I've been a fan of for the longest time = Motley Crue
These were more difficult...trying to separate the musician from the band.
Favorite Musician = Chris Cornell
Most Loyal Toward (musician) = Chris Cornell
Longest Time fan of (musician) = Ozzy
Also tough to leave FNM & Mike Patton from this, but Pearl Jam and Cornell finish forward, at this point in time. Crue and Ozzy win out from the metal youth days.
I never cared for Ozzy solo and could never get into Patton either. What is something I should check out from Patton that I might enjoy? No Mr Bungle or FNM, something in the last 10 years or so.
You did not like solo Ozzy? Blizzard? Diary? Sin? Bark? Tears? Wicked? TRIBUTE?
Albums so badass they only get one word references from me?
Sabbath was better, of course, but damn did I love Ozzy for a lot of years.

The problem with solo Ozzy is none of those albums are really that great. Tons of filler. Sabbath started with a run of damn near perfect albums.

I can accept that opinion. I love them.
I also do not contest that Sabbath > Ozzy, at all. Love me some Sabbath.

Awful albums. Sounded like fluff 80's stuff to me.
I was introduced to Ozzy from my older cousins, whom loved it, never saw why. They put on Sabbath though and I was immediately in love.
The duet w Lita Ford is one of the worst songs ever written...
Crazy Train is probably the only Ozzy song I like and that is because of that cool Randy guitar lick.
Miracle Man had my interest for a second because Zakk made his guitar talk. That was cool to a 12yo.

Probably silly to be debating the quality of Ozzy albums with someone currently espousing love for Michael Jackson's Bad in the best song on album threads.
We do not even need to make it about what a predator MJ was and how people just looked the other way while he abused children -- we can just put Bad up against any of those records I listed and agree that if you do not like them better than Bad then we are not going to agree on any discussion points here.
Bad = a 1000% different type of music than Ozzy.
Bark and Wicked are the two on that list at the bottom if I had to rank them...and they still shred and leave a record like Michael Jackson's Bad in the bushes, moaning about getting the crap beaten out of him.
Those other records are so great, to me. At least 20 songs I think are fucking awesome and I like most of the rest of them.
We just like some different music. (And I agree about the Lita Ford duet - Ozzy's worst song. Still like it more than any song on the child molester's album.)

Blizzard closes with 3 stinkers and Dee is a throwaway. The rest is as good as it gets though. Diary and the rest of his catalog has 3 good songs per album on average with No More Tears lending a generous hand to some albums that don’t really have anything going for them.

We do not even need to make it about what a predator MJ was and how people just looked the other way while he abused children -- we can just put Bad up against any of those records I listed and agree that if you do not like them better than Bad then we are not going to agree on any discussion points here.
Bad = a 1000% different type of music than Ozzy.
Bark and Wicked are the two on that list at the bottom if I had to rank them...and they still shred and leave a record like Michael Jackson's Bad in the bushes, moaning about getting the crap beaten out of him.
Those other records are so great, to me. At least 20 songs I think are fucking awesome and I like most of the rest of them.
We just like some different music. (And I agree about the Lita Ford duet - Ozzy's worst song. Still like it more than any song on the child molester's album.)
Not sure how MJ fits in this convo really at all?
Yes, you have proven your fanboydom for Ozzy, that's abundantly clear. When I'm out and about I'll be looking for the Iroc-z with the t-tops off blasting Bark at the Moon and I'll know I've found you.
Just pointing out that we have some clear differences in what we find to be good music. (Although we obviously agree on some items)
Heck yes, if Dankind will pass me the feathered roach clip we will turn that shit up. (My sub-woofer in the back makes my headlights dim to the beat)
The band that I've been a fan of for the longest time = Motley Crue
These were more difficult...trying to separate the musician from the band.
Favorite Musician = Chris Cornell
Most Loyal Toward (musician) = Chris Cornell
Longest Time fan of (musician) = Ozzy
Also tough to leave FNM & Mike Patton from this, but Pearl Jam and Cornell finish forward, at this point in time. Crue and Ozzy win out from the metal youth days.
I never cared for Ozzy solo and could never get into Patton either. What is something I should check out from Patton that I might enjoy? No Mr Bungle or FNM, something in the last 10 years or so.
You did not like solo Ozzy? Blizzard? Diary? Sin? Bark? Tears? Wicked? TRIBUTE?
Albums so badass they only get one word references from me?
Sabbath was better, of course, but damn did I love Ozzy for a lot of years.
Awful albums. Sounded like fluff 80's stuff to me.
I was introduced to Ozzy from my older cousins, whom loved it, never saw why. They put on Sabbath though and I was immediately in love.
The duet w Lita Ford is one of the worst songs ever written...
Crazy Train is probably the only Ozzy song I like and that is because of that cool Randy guitar lick.
Miracle Man had my interest for a second because Zakk made his guitar talk. That was cool to a 12yo.
Probably silly to be debating the quality of Ozzy albums with someone currently espousing love for Michael Jackson's Bad in the best song on album threads.

Comments
Faith No More get all three nods from me...
I've liked them since I first heard The Real Thing in junior high, they've never released anything I didn't love, they really can't do much wrong in my book.
@tempo_n_groove - they're more than 10 years old, but the 1st two Tomahawk albums are fantastic, and way more than just solo Patton projects. John Stanier has become one of my favorite drummers after listening to that band, and Duane Dennison writes some pretty interesting stuff. Their last release Oddfellows from 2013 has some good stuff as well, but still isn't as good as either of the first two.
I forgot how heavy it was until I saw them again at the Paradise in 2013. The crowd went apeshit during Mayday & The Bird Song.
I love that band.
Edit: Capt. Midnight, Rape This Day & When the Stars Begin to Fall are incredible too... what a great f'ing album.

The problem with solo Ozzy is none of those albums are really that great. Tons of filler. Sabbath started with a run of damn near perfect albums.
I was introduced to Ozzy from my older cousins, whom loved it, never saw why. They put on Sabbath though and I was immediately in love.
The duet w Lita Ford is one of the worst songs ever written...
Crazy Train is probably the only Ozzy song I like and that is because of that cool Randy guitar lick.

Diary and the rest of his catalog has 3 good songs per album on average with No More Tears lending a generous hand to some albums that don’t really have anything going for them.
most loyal toward: PJ
longest fan of: PJ. Jeremy got me hooked and then Unplugged and Singles had me hooked for life
Yes, you have proven your fanboydom for Ozzy, that's abundantly clear. When I'm out and about I'll be looking for the Iroc-z with the t-tops off blasting Bark at the Moon and I'll know I've found you.
