Two-time Grammy Award winner OZZY OSBOURNE has been nominated for a Grammy Award for “Best Hard Rock Performance” for the “Let Me Hear You Scream” track from his June 2010 release SCREAM (Epic Records). “Let Me Hear You Scream”--co-written and co-produced by OZZY--was a #1 single on both the Active Rock and Mainstream Rock charts, and this Grammy nod marks OZZY’s fourth Grammy nomination in his career.
SCREAM--his first album in three years and 10th studio album overall--entered the charts in the Top Ten in more than 10 countries, including the U.S. (#4).
Here’s what some critics had to say about “Let Me Hear You Scream”:
"The single 'Let Me Hear You Scream' gallops with neck-snapping ferocity, while sludgy grooves put some muscle behind 'Soul Sucker' and 'Fearless.'"
--Gary Graff, Billboard, July 31, 2010
"That sweat-and-danger attitude carries into 'Let Me Hear You Scream,' which combines thrash metal with a tempo that would allow Scream dance-hall success...This is heavy, stairway-to-hell music that demands more volume than your ears should hear."
--Dan Aquilante, New York Post, June 15, 2010
“The highlight is the fist-pumping first single, ‘Let Me Hear You Scream,’ on which, against a blitzkrieg of snarling guitars, the Ozzster works up a real rebel yell.”
--People Magazine, July 5, 2010
"The lead single ‘Let Me Hear You Scream,’ with its mega-chorus and insane guitar solo should prove perfect for arena madness…"
--Kevin O’Hare, The Republican (Springfield, MA), June 21, 2010
Next up for OZZY: The "Scream" Tour will stop January 14, 2011 in St. Louis, MO at the Scottrade Center, for a re-scheduled date from Dec. 10, and will conclude February 22 in Jacksonville, FL. OZZY’s longtime friend and musical collaborator Slash (featuring Myles Kennedy) will open all the concerts on 2011 leg.
The previous date for the St. Louis show was cancelled due to Ozzy getting an ear infection.
