Published 26th June On July 5, Ozzy Osbourne will play his final ever show, and Black Sabbath will go out with a serious bang, hosting the mother of all star-studded metal gigs, Back To The Beginning, at Birmingham’s Villa Park. Ozzy, Tony, Geezer and Bill created this genre we all live and breathe, and in this very special issue we celebrate the legacy they’re leaving behind. We interview all four legendary bandmembers, and chat to a host of their famous friends – Tom Morello, Lzzy Hale, Randy Blythe, Joe Duplantier, Brann Dailor, Tobias Forge, Kerry King, K.K. Downing, Robert Trujillo, Jerry Cantrell, Duff McKagan, David Ellefson, Kerry King, Scott Ian and more all share their favourite Ozzy and Sabbath stories and memories. Elsewhere in the mag, we look back on the history of the mighty Slayer, Bambie Thug talks tattoos and taxidermy, and Employed To Serve answer your questions. Zeal & Ardor’s Manuel Gagneux invites us into his incredibly eclectic record collection, Dani Filth imparts his life lessons (God help us all…), and Judas Priest reflect on the making of Judas Rising. All this, plus all the essential gigs and reviews from the world of metal.
