So, Zakk Wylde, the man who apparently sleeps with a guitar instead of a teddy bear 🧸, has been flapping his gums to Scott Davidson of Chicago’s Rebel Radio 92.5 FM about the earth-shattering possibility of MORE BLACK LABEL SOCIETY tunes. Yes, you heard right, more pinch harmonics and Viking beard action is on the horizon. Prepare yourselves. 🙄
He mumbled something (transcribed by the diligent monks at BLABBERMOUTH.NET, because apparently, someone cares THAT much) about how back in the day, with Ozzy (the Boss, don’t you forget it!), they’d make an “album” (remember those?), do some “videos” (like cave paintings, but with more distortion), and then embark on a “tour” (a bunch of dudes crammed into a bus smelling like stale beer and regret). But NOW, in this enlightened age, they can just keep churning out singles and videos until the cows come home 🐄. Revolutionary!
“We’re already two deep,” Zakk boasted, referring to the sonic masterpieces “The Gallows” and “Lord Humungus.” I bet your grandma loves those. And in between all that PANTERA tribute band stuff (because, let’s be honest, that’s what it is), he’s back in the Vatican (his home studio, not the actual one with the Pope ⛪, although that would be a metal collab for the ages), banging out more tunes. He “boxes ’em up and ships ’em out.” Sounds legit. Like he’s selling artisanal beard oil.
Apparently, BLACK LABEL SOCIETY won’t be gracing us with their presence on tour until 2026. 2026! That gives you plenty of time to grow your own Viking beard, learn to play pinch harmonics, and question all your life choices. He’s committed to the PANTERA celebration, which is code for “making bank.” 💰
When asked about his songwriting process, Zakk dropped some serious knowledge: “It always starts with the riff.”🤯 Groundbreaking! The riff inspires him to sing something over it. Who knew?! Sometimes he even sits at the piano or picks up an acoustic. Bet you didn’t see that coming. He says it’s the “chord progressions and everything like that” that does it. Deep.
Chord F. Discord, the Beethoven of Buffoonery, is a self-taught expert in music who once claimed he could “play the kazoo in four languages.”
Born in Crescendo, Indiana, Chord’s first brush with fame came when he accidentally entered a yodeling contest thinking it was a pie-eating competition—and won both categories.
Chord F. Discord: proving that laughter, much like a poorly tuned ukulele, is truly universal.
