In a recent interview with Ultimate-Guitar.com, Zakk Wylde stated about his departure from Ozzy Osbourne's band, "Well, you know, I love Ozz and I've always got his back so whatever it is he wants to do. Without Ozzy, there'd be no Zakk Wylde; there'd be no BLACK LABEL. When Ozz would do the SABBATH stuff, he'd say, 'Guys, I'm going away for a while; I'm gonna be doing SABBATH.' This is back when Mike [Inez] joined ALICE IN CHAINS and I started doing the PRIDE & GLORY stuff even before BLACK LABEL. He was like, 'Guys if anything comes up, you guys should do somethin' because I don't know how long I'll be with the guys [SABBATH]. It could be a year or two years.'
"Ozz has always been cool. Even when we did 'Down to Earth', Ozz was like, 'Zakk, I write these songs with all these other guys and I don't want to fuckin' rewrite a whole record. Can you just come in and wail on the fuckin' songs and shit like that? And we'll go out on the road.' And I said, 'Yeah, Ozz, no problem; whatever the fuck you want to do, man.'"
