Heavy metal outfit Black Sabbath, led by Ozzy Osbourne, are to be inducted into the UK Music Hall Of Fame.
Sabbath enjoyed great success throughout the seventies and the eighties, with a string of hits including the anthemic 'Mama, i'm coming home'.
The group were famed for their legendary stage shows, with enigmatic and unpredictable frontman Osbourne often indulging in such wholesome activities as biting bats heads off mid-performance.
Osbourne, has since went on to achieve greater notoriety as a star of reality TV show 'The Osbournes', which has seen the majority of his family achieve international celebrity status.
A clearly delighted Ozzy commented: "For once in my life I'm speechless, but very happy and honoured."
Osbourne will be honoured alongside Bob Dylan, Pink Floyd, Jimi Hendrix, New Order, The Who and The Kinks.
The late John Peel will become an honorary member reports The Sun.
The ceremony will take place at London's Alexandra Palace on November 16.
