BLACK LABEL SOCIETY Sign To E1 Music For US Release Of New Album
January 7, 2010, 14 years ago
According to BLACK LABEL SOCIETY frontman Zakk Wylde's wife and co-manager Barbaranne Wylde, the band has signed to E1 Music for the U.S. release of their next album, tentatively slated for June. Recording will continue throughout January/February with the hopes to being mixing in April. More details will be provided as we get them.
In a recent interview with Ultimate-Guitar.com, Wylde explained his exit from the Ozzy camp: "Well, you know, I love Ozz and I’ve always got his back so whatever it is he wants to do. Without Ozzy, there’d be no Zakk Wylde; there’d be no Black Label. When Ozz would do the SABBATH stuff, he’d say, 'Guys, I’m going away for a while; I’m gonna be doing Sabbath.' This is back when Mike [Bordin] joined ALICE IN CHAINS and I started doing the P&G; stuff even before Black Label. He was like, 'Guys if anything comes up, you guys should do somethin’ because I don’t know how long I’ll be with the guys [Sabbath]. It could be a year or two years.'
Ozz has always been cool. Even when we did Down To Earth, Ozz was like, 'Zakk, I write these songs with all these other guys and I don’t want to fuckin’ rewrite a whole record. Can you just come in and wail on the fuckin’ songs and shit like that? And we’ll go out on the road.' And I said, 'Yeah, Ozz, no problem; whatever the fuck you want to do, man'."
