Ozzy Osbourne's first studio album of all-new material in six years, "Black Rain", was reportedly the first album Ozzy wrote and recorded while completely clean and sober.

The singer will headline this summer's "free" Ozzfest, beginning on July 12 in Seattle.

Fans who purchase specially marked copies of "Black Rain" will have a first shot at scoring Ozzfest tickets via a code included with the album.

Osbourne will be the first person inducted into the new Birmingham Walk of Stars, which will honor the British city's most famous sons and daughters. Osbourne's induction ceremony will be held on July 6.
