Down to Earth is an album by Ozzy Osbourne, released on October 16, 2001 (see 2001 in music). It was the long awaited follow-up to his 1995 studio release Ozzmosis. It was also an Enhanced CD. The cover of the album is made of Osbourne's X-ray and his tattoos superimposed. It is the first and only studio album to feature former Suicidal Tendencies bassist Robert Trujillo, who would then go on to join Metallica in 2003. This was the first studio album Osbourne had ever done without the writing or performance of either Bob Daisley or Geezer Butler.
