Order Of The Black Cracks Top 5

On the heels of our previous post about just how damn good the new album from Zakk Wylde and Black Label Society is, we have some chart numbers to back it up, baby. At the end of it’s first week the latest album from Zakk and Company titled Order Of The Black has reached number 4 on the Billboard top 200 charts across America, and number 1 on the Billboard top 100 Hard Rock charts. Pretty damn good for a guy that less than a year ago had a health crisis that left him nearly dead due to blood clots in his lungs. That’s what I call a helluva comeback. If you haven’t already, get out to your local record store or fire up iTunes and grab the latest auditory masterpiece from Father Wylde, you won’t be sorry!

Order Of The Black Astounds Listeners

Yeah, I’m a fan, but I can still separate good music from bad (not a question of like or not, though like I do ;]). The new album from Zakk Wylde and his Black Label Society came out a week ago and I am still listening to it, examining each track, absorbing it and taking it in. This album is amazing, I mean I can’t tell you how many times I have gotten a CD where there was one or two good tracks and the rest was pretty much filler (never with a ZW or BLS cd of course), but every damn track on The Order Of The Black is awesome. From hard hitting metal madness to rock and roll badness to powerful ballads that make you want to weep and call your mama just to tell her you love her. This album is a masterpiece of music, a wide range of music styles, a superb example of Zakk and Co’s abilities and of course, Zakk’s writing ability. You need to go get this album and give it a spin. I can guarantee you this, if you aren’t a Black Label fan now, you will be after listening to this record.

Black Label Society Second Single Out NOW!

We just posted about the release of the first single Parade of the Dead off of Black Label’s new album Order of the Black. Guess what? Single number two Crazy Horse came out last night (after midnight ;]) on iTunes. Let me tell you, this one might be heavier, harder and better than the first. Really though, it doesn’t matter, they are both SLAMMIN’ so go get them now!!!

Zakk Wylde’s Black Label Society Releases New Single

Head’s up everyone, Zakk Wylde and his band family Black Label Society have been hard at work in the Black Label Bunker, the recording studio that Zakk built outside his home. They have spent the last few months working on a new album and all signs are pointing to this being some of their best work yet. The first single, Parade of the Dead, to be released from the album, Order of the Black, is now available on iTunes. I highly recommend picking it up. If you are a Zakk/BLS fan then it goes without saying that you need this, the song is slammin’ and rocks the house all the way down. Even if you aren’t already a Zakk/BLS fan, if you are a metal head like me, get the song! You’ll love it and walk away a Zakk/BLS fan. If you aren’t a metal head, get it anyway because it will convert you! Take a listen to Zakk, Nick, JD, and Will tear it up in true Black Label fashion.
