Editor's note

Zakk Wylde's heavy metal crew, Black Label Society

A guitar-driven metal band that's kept the riffs loud and the pace steady since the late '90s.

For a good sense of their sound, try 'Sold My Soul' or 'Spoke In The Wheel.' It's all guitar and grit.

If you know Zakk Wylde from his years playing guitar for Ozzy Osbourne, Black Label Society is where he built his own sound. Songs like 'Sold My Soul' and 'Too Tough To Die' show the band's straightforward metal approach, built around Wylde's guitar work. They've put out more than a dozen studio records since that first album, 'Sonic Brew,' in 1998.

Wylde started Black Label Society in 1998 after playing with Ozzy and his own band Pride & Glory. The lineup has shifted over time, with players like John DeServio, Jeff Fabb, and Dario Lorina coming through, but they've kept a steady pace of recording and touring.

Zakk Wylde started Black Label Society in 1998 after playing guitar for Ozzy Osbourne and with his own band Pride & Glory. The group's first album was called 'Sonic Brew,' and they've put out more than a dozen studio records since then.

Wylde handles lead guitar and vocals for Black Label Society, with John DeServio on bass through much of the band's run. The lineup has shifted over time, with other players like Jeff Fabb, Dario Lorina, and Nick Catanese coming through. They've kept a steady pace of recording and touring.

In 2015, Wylde was arrested for disorderly conduct after an incident outside a bar in Los Angeles. Some listeners have also pointed to what they see as misogynistic themes in the band's earlier lyrics. The music itself, though, has maintained a straightforward metal approach, built around Wylde's guitar work.
