Ozzy Osbourne and Billy Idol guitarist Billy Morrison have teamed up again for an epic new single titled “Gods of Rock N Roll.” You can listen to it below.
The song, which follows the duo’s successful collaboration “Crack Cocaine,” features a score composed by CINDERELLA drummer Fred Coury and performed by the 61-piece Budapest Scoring Orchestra, along with the John Burroughs High School choir. Morrison‘s bandmate and Idol guitarist Steve Stevens delivers a fiery solo.
“Gods of Rock N Roll” dates back 10 years, when it first appeared as “Gods” on Morrison’s 2015 album God Shaped Hole. The new version will appear on a deluxe digital edition of Morrison‘s star-studded 2024 album The Morrison Project, which comes out next week. The original album featured Al Jourgensen of Ministry, John 5, Corey Taylor and Steve Vai, among others. The deluxe edition includes a Cypress Hill collaboration.
Osbourne is set to play his final concert and reunite with the original BLACK SABBATH lineup for the star-studded Back to the Beginning show on July 5 at Birmingham, England’s Villa Park.
