Yungblud documentary was a 'roller coaster of emotions'
Singer Yungblud has admitted that filming a documentary that gives viewers a virew into one of his recording sessions was like a "roller coaster of emotions". Yungblud. Are You Ready, Boy? was directed by Bafta-winning filmmaker Paul Dugdale, and sees the musician from Doncaster relocate to Hansa Studios in Berlin to record live performances of tracks from his fourth studio album, Idols. He told the PA news agency: "The film is going to be insane. It's completely out of control, I don't know how the hell they're going to edit it but there was a roller coaster of emotions so it was pretty raw." Idols was released in June 2025 and the singer, whose real name is Dominic Harrison, said the album is not just about paying homage to his music heroes. "I called the album Idols, because it's actually the first time that I've turned away from them," he said. "I've always looked to other people for an answer. I've always looked to the picture on the wall. "I wrote a record about looking at picture on a wall, wanting to become a picture on the wall, becoming a picture on the wall, and realising it didn't f****** mean anything." He added: "I think I've spent a long time paying homage to my heroes, which I always will do, but it's time for me to challenge myself, to try and f****** reach as high as I can, try my best and push my musicians, and push my band, and push my team." "I can honestly say, since probably (debut studio album) 21st Century Liability, I wrote this album for myself, and I f****** believe in magic, man, it made me believe in magic again. It's like, it's just completely pure, and it's just been amazing," he said. The 27-year-old recorded in the same studio used by David Bowie for Heroes and U2 for Achtung Baby!. "Berlin has been through so much, been the most liberal place in Europe, but then also experienced the most pain," he said about the German city. With sequences shot in 16mm, the two-hour long documentary will show the live session being recorded while also giving behind-the-scenes insights that depict the relationship between Yungblud and his band.

Black Sabbath farewell gig becomes feature-length film
Pioneering rock band Black Sabbath's farewell performance will live forever as a "feature-length concert film". Black Sabbath recently performed their final concert at Villa Park in Birmingham - a star-studded event that featured appearances from Metallica, Guns N' Roses, Yungblud and Travis Barker. The concert is now being transformed into a "big-screen celebration of Ozzy Osbourne and the legacy of Black Sabbath". "We are excited to announce the theatrical release of Back To The Beginning: Ozzy's Final Bow - coming early 2026," a statement on Osbourne's Instagram page says. "The feature-length concert film will be a big-screen celebration of Ozzy Osbourne and the legacy of Black Sabbath, capturing the raw power and emotional weight of Ozzy's final bow in his hometown of Birmingham." The film is being billed as a "love letter to Ozzy". "Presented as a love letter to Ozzy and the pioneering sound of @BlackSabbath, the theatrical release will be a distilled version of the epic all-day event held at Villa Park," the statement says. "Featuring thunderous performances of War Pigs, Iron Man, Children of the Grave and a show-stopping Paranoid, the film promises a deeply personal and electrifying farewell from the godfather of heavy metal with exclusive behind-the-scenes access and interviews from this iconic live performance." Yungblud - whose real name is Dominic Harrison - has previously admitted he's "found solace in being similar" to Osbourne. A long-time fan of the Black Sabbath frontman, the singer paid a glowing tribute to Osbourne ahead of the band's farewell gig at Villa Park. "Since I can remember, Ozzy has always been a part of my life," Yungblud told The Independent. "I grew up around rock music, and he was a character to me before I even knew anything about him. I remember his hair, I remember his massive mouth, I remember his glasses from when I was three years old. "If you know me and my family, we're truly f***ing loud - they used to call us The Osbournes. So, I kind of found solace in being similar to them. "Growing up watching The Osbournes and the madness, I was always like that. I was always out there and crazy. "To see someone being so loved and accepted with all their madness … I really found solace in a figure like Ozzy."
