After OZZY<\/strong> postponed his touring plans again “in a bid to continue getting a better handle on his health”, his lead guitarist Zakk Wylde<\/strong> has confirmed he plans to take advantage of that downtime to begin writing and recording a new BLACK LABEL SOCIETY<\/strong> studio album.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of that with Billboard.com<\/a>, he stated:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m going to do some writing, I guess, in April, and [in] May and June, we\u2019ll [record] and have that one ready to roll. I don\u2019t demo or stockpile shit. Never have. I\u2019m not like Prince<\/strong>, where he\u2019s recording stuff all the time. I just like to come up with a riff or an idea and be like, \u2018Why don\u2019t we track that one today?\u2019 It\u2019s like the beginning of a new season. It\u2019s always fun.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to his Black Label Society<\/strong> duties, the coming months will also see him release a faithful recreation of Black Sabbath<\/strong>\u2018s 1970 self-titled debut album via his Zakk Sabbath<\/strong> project. Dubbed \u201cVertigo<\/strong>\u201c, the group set out to record the album entirely in analog during a 24-hour period as Black Sabbath<\/strong> originally did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A documentary of the recording for that as well as footage from their February 2020 European touring in support of the outing will also be included with the release, It is the the completion of the latter that has seen the outing delayed from it\u2019s original planned February 13th , 2020 release date. That particular date marked the 50th anniversary of the Black Sabbath<\/strong> album.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
