Scream
Scream is Ozzy Osbourne's eleventh studio album, released on 11 June 2010. It was recorded at his home studio, The Bunker, in Los Angeles, and produced by Osbourne with Kevin Churko, who had worked on Black Rain in 2007. The title was originally going to be Soul Sucka, but fans objected and it was changed before release. The lead single, "Let Me Hear You Scream", reached number 6 on the American Rock Songs chart.
It marks a change in the band, with Gus G taking over from long-serving guitarist Zakk Wylde, his only album with Osbourne. It is also the first release to feature keyboardist Adam Wakeman. Commercially it was quieter than earlier work, though it reached number 4 on the US Billboard 200 and number 12 in the UK. The classic Osbourne logo returns to the cover for the first time since The Ultimate Sin, and it was his last album until Ordinary Man in 2020.
