Black Label Society is the brain child of guitar great Zakk Wylde. Hard and heavy, big on riffs and even bigger on the solos, BLS is the bastard child of Black Sabbath only pumped up on steroids.

It was recorded on March 16 the same year Nashville, Tennessee at the Ryman Auditorium except for the track "Can't Slow Down" recorded in Seebronn, Germany, on July 31, 2010.

Personally, the album helped me reclaim my confidence as an artist and rediscover the fun of making music again.”
