To do the Ozzfest again would be great. I'd like to finish with a final Sabbath album. You always feel that it is still a challenge.

The '80s were the worst period. You had these horrible pop bands growing their hair and calling themselves metal.

If you are a pop band, don't say you're a metal band. Poison and Warrant were about as metal as the Backstreet Boys.

Without a doubt, Ozzy is the craziest person I've ever met. Son of Sam is a close second.

I never try and sound like Sabbath.

Black Sabbath was written on bass: I just walked into the studio and went, bah, bah, bah, and everybody joined in and we just did it.

Lately, Ive been listening to some jazz albums. I love the new Pat Metheny album. John Coltrane. I still like good metal, though!
