Ozzy Osbourne has set up his own supergroup to perform with him at this year's New Orleans Voodoo Music Experience festival - and the line-up is pretty awesome. 

Joining the Prince of Darkness and Black Sabbath vocalist on stage will be Sabbath bassist Geezer Butler, as well as the Guns N Roses guitarist Slash and Rage Against The Machine's Tom Morello, forming Osbourne's own supergroup. 

Together the star studded band will headline the festival, which is happening over the Halloween period, on October 30 - November 1 2015 in New Orleans City Park. 

Other acts filling the line up include the now Glastonbury headliner Florence + The Machine, Santigold, The Joy Formidable, Chance The Rapper, Giorgio Moroder and Frank Turner, among others.  

Meanwhile, Black Sabbath have recently announced details of the re-release of their first eight albums on vinyl, spaced out on three dates across this summer. 

You can watch Black Sabbath's interview with Gigwise below:

They also recently cancelled their own 'farewell' gig which was due to happen at Ozzfest this year in Tokyo, revealing that Osbourne will now play the date as a solo gig.

Instead the band are planning on setting out on a proper goodbye tour - but speaking to NME back in May, Geezer Butler cast doubts on the tours probability, stating he had ' no idea' if it would actually happen - but that he was definitely up for it. "I'd love to keep going, I'd desperately want to keep going before I kick the bucket," he said, with Guitarist Tony Iommi adding: "It'd be lovely to do a last tour, it'd be really nice to do that".
