Ozzy is releasing a special tour edition of current album Scream in early October.
Available in two-CD and double vinyl formats, this will include three extra tracks from the recording sessions for the album, plus four live songs and the vidoe for Let Me Hear You Scream.
Ozzy headlines the UK Ozzfest at the O2 Arena in London on September 18.







Well, I’m glad I didn’t rush out to buy this album then, if there’s going to be a special edition.
Really annoys me when artists do this FFS this albums has only been out a few months.. ill be damned if im buying it again.. I can only assume that the extra tracks didnt make it onto the original release because they weren’t good enough
Tough shit if you’ve already bought it!
Hmm, there’s a surprise…
Us loyal fans who bought it on the day of release have to go buy it again if we want the extra tracks.
I suppose arrtists have to sell recodings somehow anyhow these days…..
And the music industry wonders why people download music for free.
I though this ‘fleece-the-fan’ scam was dead…it appears not. Instead of hoping that the record buying public will reach into their pockets a second time some months after the initial release, why not release the full item to begin with alongside the regular version and give the buyer a choice? Because many record companies are money-grabbing arseholes with the business acumen of a small rodent is why. And that is why record companies that exercise such sales tactics are going to the wall…and not a moment too soon. Which is ultimately (sadly) a loss for everyone. My money stays in my pocket.
Well this sucks – I only just bought this album; what am I expected to do? Buy the fucking thing again? Its good – I like it but I’m not going to buy it again within a few weeks of having just got it.
I wish the record companies would stop pulling this shit – doing a special tour edition is OK if the tour is hitting 12 months or more after the original release but thids thing only came out in July. If I’d known this was coming I’d have waited or got a copy elsewhere in the meantime
I know people have complained about this in the past but here I go again. This is total BS when artist do this. Unless it’s a 10/20/25/30 year special addition or a remastered version cos the original is old then they can all get fkd. Rob Zombie is doing this with HBD2 as well. What’s the point of buying the album when it’s first released when you can wait a few months and get a deluxe version??? Either release em at the same time or go fk yourselves and stop milking your fans for all their worth!
WTF!!! will someone do something about this sort of blatent attempt to rip people off I know it does’nt always have anything to do with the artists but F**K me its unfair, especially to loyal fans who rush out and buy the new album as soon as it comes out !!! what makes this worse is its a fantastic new album and you really want to hear the other songs because of this !!! had the same thing when Stone Sour released Come what (ever) may, went and bought the extended album after buying it on release, although the extra songs were fantastic it should still not happen!!!!
Not selling very well? Sahron need a few more dollar$?
Well I’m glad I went and bought it on release date then.. should have called it Wallet Sucka.. poor show (again) Ozzy.
Rapidly losing faith in you I’m sad to say.
And everyone thinks Gene Simmons is a money grabbing tosser. At least KISS had the decency to release two versions of Sonic Boom at the same time.
Can’t wait to download it!!!
What a Twat.
ozzy you are a f..in joke,just like your wife..1more lost fan.
It must be one of Sharon’s ideas!
I complained about this on Play.com a few weeks ago and my comments didn’t get printed!
As a few say, its good but not good enough to buy again. I only bought the thing 2 week1 month ago!!
this is clearly orchestrated by sony records, they always fleece the consumer just like they do with playstation etc. dont blame ozzy,its the company that tries to screw us over…….
