Wrongfully bashed gem? What?
I'm only 13, so because of all the crappy music that We're stuck with today (Emo, Rap, Pop, etc. I can say I was looking forward to hearing this album. ), I've had to go back and listen to the great rock artists of yesteryear. Ozzy Osbourne is personally one of my favorite singers, very unique. I loved Ozzy's first two albums. . . . but I can't say the same for "Bark At The Moon".

Bark At The Moon, 9/10 - A solid album opener. Not much to be said about this song, it's pretty much all around good. Enjoy the four minutes and seventeen seconds while they last.

Your No Different, 2/10 - Oh dear God what is this abomination? Everything about this is God aweful. Synthesizer overkill. When you can hear guitar it sounds terrible. For some reason Ozzy's voice started to get me really angry while I was listening to this. A total miss.

Now You See It (Now You Don't), 4/10 - Egh. . . not much better. . . At least we can hear the guitar in this one, but Ozzy sounds absolutely f*ckin terrible, his voice completely killed this for me. Then again, I would have maybe given it a 5 or 6 if it hadn't.

Rock 'N' Roll Rebel, 5/10 - Will the torment ever end? Yes, the guitar is solid, but again Ozzy's voice kills the whole song.

Centre Of Eternity, 8/10 - The torment ended (at least for now)! This is a good song, no doubt about that. The guitar picks up the pace a little, Ozzy sounds a little better. It's just pretty good though, nothing too special.

So Tired, 1/10 - What the hell is this!?

Slow Down, 7/10 - This is at least half decent. A little poppish-er (I made that up), but it's still okay, better than most of the crap on this album.

Wating For Darkness,5/10 - What is this song even about? It's not good, again with the synthesizer overkill.

Spiders In The Light, -3/10 - I just gave that song a negative grade. Does that not tell you how much it blows?

Overall, this album is a piece of crap. It has three good songs, two which aren't all that great. I think part of how bad this album is, is due to the absence of Randy. Mr. Rhoades co-wrote the songs with Ozzy, and I think songwriting was a major factor in the failure of this album. If you want a good Ozzy Osbourne album, I recommend "Blizzard of Ozz" and "Diary Of A Madman", but you probably already have those. If you want to get into Ozzy Osbourne, this most definitely is not the place to start, that would be "Blizzard". I found it very strange how Ozzy's voice killed so many of the songs. I've never had a problem with Ozzy's voice (with the exception of the time he sang at the U. K Music Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, that I do have a problem with). I only parted with two dollars for this, and I guess I got what I paid for.
