In this episode of My Favorite Riff, bassist Nikki Sixx (Mötley Crüe / Sixx:A.M.) welcomes guitarist Zakk Wylde (Black Label Society / Ozzy Osbourne). Zakk plays his signature bulls-eye design as he and Nikki talk about making musical soup, and playing for the boss; Ozzy Osbourne. His advice when it comes to music; don't worry about what other people are doing, do what you like.

Black Label Society has debuted a brand new track titled "All That Once Shined" from their brand new LP, Grimmest Hits, due out next year. A lyric video for the song can be found below.

The single is the second song the band has made available to the public. Just last month the band released a “Room Of Nightmares” music video, seen below. Both "All That Once Shined" and "Room of Nightmares" are available as iTunes instant gratification tracks, meaning fans who pre-order the album on iTunes now will receive both songs as an instant download.

Black Label Society will release their tenth full length, Grimmest Hits, on January 19th via Entertainment One (eOne). The new effort will be the follow-up to Billboard Top 5 charting titles Catacombs Of The Black Vatican (2014) and Order Of The Black (2010). In-between then and now, Zakk Wylde released Book of Shadows II, the follow-up to his 1996 solo debut of the same name, which debuted at #18 on the Billboard Top 200 Chart.
