Get ready for an epic heavy metal adventure! BLACK LABEL SOCIETY is gearing up for a European takeover, and you won't want to miss this! But here's the catch: it's not just any ordinary tour.
BLACK LABEL SOCIETY is set to rock Europe in the spring and summer of 2026, with a lineup that will make any metalhead's heart race. The tour, starting in May, will feature some incredible support acts, including the mighty VENOM INC., THROWN INTO EXILE, SACRED REICH, THUNDERMOTHER, and METAL CHURCH. Talk about a dream team!
The tour kicks off on May 28th in Glasgow, UK, and will hit major cities across the UK, Germany, Hungary, France, Switzerland, Turkey, and Spain. Imagine the energy and raw power of these bands under one roof! And this is just the beginning...
But here's where it gets even more exciting: BLACK LABEL SOCIETY is also releasing a brand-new album, "Engines Of Demolition," on March 27th. This highly anticipated follow-up to 2021's "Doom Crew Inc." features 15 tracks, including the singles that fans have been raving about: "Broken And Blind," "The Gallows," and "Lord Humungus." But wait, there's an unexpected twist—a song titled "Ozzy's Song" pays homage to none other than Ozzy Osbourne, the legendary BLACK SABBATH singer and longtime bandmate of BLS guitarist/vocalist Zakk Wylde.
Zakk Wylde, the charismatic axeman, has been a force to be reckoned with since he joined Ozzy's band nearly four decades ago. His incredible talent was first recognized when Ozzy selected him based on a cassette he sent as a teenager. Can you believe it? A cassette! This led to Wylde's iconic status and a cover feature on Guitar World magazine over a dozen times. He's a true legend in the making.
BLACK LABEL SOCIETY has become a household name in the heavy metal world, with nearly a dozen studio albums under their belt, selling millions of copies. Their albums "Order Of The Black" (2010) and "Catacombs Of The Black Vatican" (2014) even cracked the top five on the hard rock album charts. Impressive, right?
And let's not forget Zakk's contribution to Ozzy's solo albums. He's played on almost all of them, except for "Ordinary Man" (2020), and has been a part of iconic records like "No More Tears" (1991), "Ozzmosis" (1995), and "Black Rain" (2007).
So, are you ready to witness BLACK LABEL SOCIETY's European conquest? Will you be part of the crowd, headbanging to their new album's tracks? And what do you think of the surprise tribute to Ozzy?
