Description:
Zakk Wylde needs no introduction! He is the most decorated guitarist in history alongside Jimi Hendrix and Eddie Van Halen. Also for over 20 years he served as Ozzy Osbourne’s guitarist, a collaboration that produced a string of multi-platinum albums, including Osbourne’s biggest selling album ‘No More Tears’ (Wylde wrote all of the music). His band, Black Label Society, is on the verge of releasing its eighth (and best) studio album, ‘Order of the Black’, a cacophony of heavy riffing, heartfelt ballads and thunderous metal. ‘Order of the Black’, the band’s eighth album, isn’t a radical departure from the band’s previous work – it’s simply a refinement. There are brutal riffs (‘Crazy Horse’), Southern doom (‘Southern Dissolution’), gentle contemplation (the piano ballads ‘Darkest Days’ and ‘Time Waits for No One’) and epic thrash (‘Godspeed Hellbound’). The album’s first single, ‘Parade of the Dead,’ meanwhile, features some vintage shredding from Wylde as well as one wicked, bad-ass groove. While tracks like ‘Darkest Days’ and ‘Shallow Grave’ may portend a darker, more personal record, Wylde doesn’t necessarily see the album going one particular direction, be it heavier, moodier or lighter. “It’s just whatever the songs are,” says Wylde. Zakk Wylde is one of the most decorated guitarists of all time.
