Never Say Die! is an album by heavy metal band Black Sabbath. The band's eighth album, it was released in September 1978. This was the last Black Sabbath studio album with Ozzy Osbourne. The album shows a departure from the glossy synth-laden period, to a more basic rock approach, though not in the vein of their original doom and gloom style.

Before this album was recorded, Ozzy Osbourne was fired from the band and was briefly replaced by former Savoy Brown & Fleetwood Mac vocalist Dave Walker. Some songs were written with Walker, and the new group even performed an early version of "Junior's Eyes" with different lyrics on the BBC programme, "Look Hear". Osbourne eventually rejoined the band, refusing to sing any of the songs written with Walker. These particular songs were rewritten, including "Junior's Eyes" (rewritten to be about the then-recent death of Ozzy's father). All four band members sing on "A Hard Road".

The album was recorded at Sounds Interchange Studios in, Toronto, as were parts of Technical Ecstasy.
