Black Label Society

Black Label Society are an American heavy-metal band formed in 1998 by guitarist and singer Zakk Wylde, previously known as Ozzy Osbourne's lead guitarist. Blending heavy metal with hard rock, groove and Southern influences, the band built its sound on Wylde's thick riffing and squealing leads across a catalogue that began with Sonic Brew. Later albums Order of the Black (2010) and Catacombs of the Black Vatican (2014) both reached the top five of the Billboard 200. With a long-serving line-up rounded out by bassist John DeServio, guitarist Dario Lorina and drummer Jeff Fabb, Black Label Society are relentless tourers, headlining across North America and Europe and appearing at festivals such as Ozzfest, a heavy, biker-flavoured live force with a fiercely loyal following.
