Interesting Questions, Facts, and Information
Black Label Society
From "Spoke in the Wheel".
What goes in the blank:
"Once my blood was strong but now its _______ and its thin"? | Black Label Society Lyrics
|
jaded. This is a very melodic song. With excellent solo's.
From the album "Sonic Brew".
From "Stoned and Drunk". Which word fills in the blank:
"Hide my fears and kill my ______,
Whatever's in my way"? | Black Label Society Lyrics
|
doubts. Great song to turn up to full volume and bop along to.
From the album "The Blessed Hellride".
what you do. From "Sonic Brew".
On the original cover of "Sonic Brew", Zakk uses a "®" next to his name. This is actually an improper use of a federally registered trademark symbol, as Zakk has not received (nor filed for) a trademark registration on his name (unlike Britney Spears and Gene Simmons).
From "Bored to Tears".
Which word completes the lyric:
"Far beyond high
___________ low
Eternal stare as if I care to know"? | Black Label Society Lyrics
|
Dramatically. Another song from "Sonic Brew".
"Sonic Brew" came out October 28th, 1998 in Japan. It did not come out until May 4th, 1999 in the USA. The album had a bonus track, "Lost My Better Half", which wasn't recorded until right before the European tour.
From "Refuse to Bow Down". Which word completes the lyric:
"What have you done, where have you been
Lord of the _________, always once again"? | Black Label Society Lyrics
|
handout. From the album "1919 Eternal".
Did you know that the voice at the beginning of "Refuse to Bow Down" is that of conservative radio talk show host Roy Masters?
hole in the ground. A song that has many Sabbath influences I feel. From the album "1919 Eternal"
The original title for "1919 Eternal" was "Deathcore WarMachine Eternal" Zakk decided to change it because of the events on September 11th.
From "Final Solution". Which word goes in the blank:
"We all shall fade to black
Fields of ____________"? | Black Label Society Lyrics
|
depression. From "The Blessed Hellride".
The original band name for BLS was Hell's Kitchen, but Zakk thought it sounded too 80s, so he changed it to BLS. If you look at Sonic Brew's booklet, it's set up like a kitchen menu. "It's the height of bad manners to heave in someone else's society," makes more sense if you replace the word "society" with the word "kitchen."
From "Counterfeit God". Do you know which word is missing from the lyric:
"I feed off your ________________
When visions of life's end appear"?
| Black Label Society Lyrics
|
unanswered fear. This is my personal favorite BLS song.

Zakk Wylde is the "ringleader" of BLS said to be the best guitarist in today’s music. He also rumored to be the next Jimi Hendrix! Although it is true that Zakk sings on the track as it is his band he is not said to of "featured" on the track.
