Black Label Society Catacombs of the Black Vatican

2014, CATACOMBS OF THE BLACK VATICAN is Black Label Society's first new studio album since 2009's THE ORDER OF THE BLACK. Since their late nineties inception, Black Label Society, formed by guitar legend Zakk Wylde, has been at the forefront of their genre. Their taste for hard riffs and blazing solos has resulted in a slew of hugely successful albums and a reputation as one of the most powerful live bands of their generation. Zakk Wylde, who has been called one of the true guitar heroes in modern history, served as Ozzy Osbourne's guitarist for over 20 years, in addition to his work with Black Label Society. Bestowed with such accolades as ´Metal Guru` from the recently held Classic Rock awards in the UK, ´Golden God` by Metal Hammer and the ´Best Guitarist` Award from Revolver Magazine, Wylde has proven time and time again that his songwriting, guitar prowess, and on-stage persona, along with his larger-than-life personality, have made him a force to be reckoned with.
