Berserkers of the universe, the new BLS opus will be titled ‘Order Of The Black’ and it is set to be released in North America on August 10, 2010 through E1 Music. Black Label Society’s brand new album is also officially confirmed for an August 9th Australia and New Zealand release date. ‘Order Of The Black’ will feature Black Label Society at its best with frontman/lead axeman Zakk Wylde’s signature guitar virtuosity and howling vocals, as well as a propulsive rhythm section, courtesy of bassist J.D. Deservio and drummer Will Hunt, along with a few surprises.
Wylde adds: “The Doom Crew and I have been holed up in the Black Label Society Bunker for the last few months laying down some of the heaviest, sexiest tracks imaginable.We can’t wait for Berserkers worldwide to hear the symphonic masterpiece that is the new BLS record!”
‘Order Of The Black’ will be released in Australia and New Zealand via Riot Entertainment.
Zakk Wylde and his Black Label Society have become a worldwide phenomenon with die-hard fans all across the globe (affectionately referred to as “Berserkers”) sporting signature BLS gear – leather vests, t-shirts, denim vests with patches, bandanas, etc. Wylde’s international presence is at an all time high having recently returned from several hugely successful press junkets in China, Japan, Australia and Singapore. Sponsored by Gibson and Epiphone (makers of Wylde’s signature guitars), these trips saw Wylde completing interviews with high-profile media outlets (print and television), as well as signing thousands of autographs at packed in-store events throughout Asia.
In the two decades since Ozzy Osbourne hired him away from his job at a New Jersey gas station, Zakk Wylde has established himself as a guitar icon known and revered the world over. Writing and recording with Osbourne led to multi-platinum success, inspiring him to create the now legendary Black Label Society in 1998. In the decade plus since, BLS has turned the notion of what a rock band should be upside down by inspiring legions of fans (known as Berserkers) all over the world to follow the mantra: Strength, Determination, Merciless, Forever (SDMF for short). Wylde and his Berserkers have established a heavy metal institution true to the vision of uncompromising, unfiltered and unrestrained rock n’ roll.
Black Label Society will tour Australia in 2011 with dates to be confirmed!
