I'm not sure who here is old enough to understand just how disillusioning that VH-1 reality show was, followed by OzzFest. In my experience with metal fans around the late-90's and early 00's, the ONLY people who talked about Ozzy Osbourne were Hot Topic shoppers who didn't listen to metal but wanted you to think they did. Most people with Ozzy T-shirts were into shit like VAST and VNV Nation, but couldn't actually name any Ozzy songs besides Iron Man and Crazy Train. Ozzy was also metal's biggest sell-out, but I'll give him a pass I guess because even in the 90's metal was still considered outcast music, the idea of Ozzy on VH-1 was so wild that it seemed like le epic troll until the first episode hit and any true metal fans with a brain said "oh shit, our genre is now officially dead".
If Ozzy invented everything good about metal (press X to doubt) then he also invented everything wrong with it. Being a drug addicted party guy who becomes so apathetic and retarded he literally signs everything away to a Jew who stripmines everything soulful into shekels and turns the entire artform into cheap tourist crap.
