(NEW YORK, NY) - Guitar icon and Black Label Society frontman
Zakk Wylde has announced a brand new LP freshly titled "Catacombs of the Black Vatican,"
due out Tuesday, April
8th, 2014.
"Catacombs of the Black Vatican" is the first all new
LP from BLS since "The Order of the Black" was released in 2009, which
debuted at #4 on the Billboard Top 200 chart.
Most recently, the band released the 2-CD set “Unblackened,”
which found Black Label Society in a mellower mood in a performance taped at
Club Nokia in Los Angeles last year.
The band recently announced "An Evening With Zakk
Wylde," a 13-city
Canadian tour across Canada featuring intimate versions of
some of the band's most popular songs, as well as songs from Wylde's
best-selling solo album "Book of
Shadows."
Since their late nineties inception, Black Label Society, formed
by guitar legend Zakk Wylde, has been at the forefront of their genre. Their
taste for hard riffs and blazing solos has resulted in a slew of hugely
successful albums and a reputation as one of the most powerful live bands of
their generation.
Zakk Wylde, who has been called one of the true guitar heroes in
modern history, served as Ozzy Osbourne’s guitarist for over 20 years in
addition to his work with BLS. This collaboration led to a string of
multi-platinum albums, including Osbourne’s biggest selling "No More Tears,"
for which Wylde wrote all the music.
In addition to holding Guitar World Magazine's MVP four years straight
Wylde has been bestowed with such accolades as "Best Rock
Guitarist" from Guitar Player, "Metal Guru" from the
recently held Classic Rock awards in the UK, "Golden God” by Metal
Hammer, the “Best Guitarist” Award from Revolver Magazine. Wylde has proven
time and time again that his songwriting, guitar prowess, and on-stage
persona, along with his larger-than-life personality, have made him a force
to be reckoned with.
Black Label Society continues to enthrall fans around the globe,
and "Catacombs of the Black Vatican" is another incredible piece in
the band's catalog.
