Is Ozzy Osbourne a Satanist?

Ozzy Osbourne was the lead vocalist of Black Sabbath, a metal rock band in the 1970s. The band was seen as responsible for propagating occult and dark ideas in mainstream music. 

When the band became famous, it was when the world believed that heavy metal music was Satanic. 

Despite the band’s use of heavy metal sounds, low riffs, and occultic images, they never invited people to worship satan. In fact, contrary to what people believed, they were using their music as an attack on the evil of the time – war and greed.

They were singing about the evil that was already in the world, most notably the Vietnam War. This was most evident in their album, Paranoid.

Black Sabbath received a lot of backlash, but that did not stop them from creating music. Ozzy Osbourne is not a satanist.
