Got a flash on the social media about the infamous axe murderer (Lizzie Borden) and got to think about the classic heavy metal band LIZZY BORDEN.
LIZZY BORDEN was founded by brothers Gregory Charles Harges (Vocals) and Joey Scott Harges (Drums) back in 1983. To date, the band has charted on the Billboard 200 four times. LIZZY BORDEN is eponymous of the band's lead vocalist.
Today's tune "Me Against The World" is taken from the third album "Visual Lies", an album featuring David Lee Roth and Ozzy Osbourne guitarist Joe Holmes, credited as J. Holmes. It features their best known song "Me Against The World" for which the band shot a promotional video. The track was also featured in the 1987 heavy-metal horror film, "Black Roses". The movie remains a cult-classic among 80's glam metal fans. The album was released September 5, 1987, enjoy!
"Room Of Nightmares", is the new video from BLACK LABEL SOCIETY, taken from the band's upcoming tenth full-length album, "Grimmest Hits", which will be released January 19, 2018 via Entertainment One (eOne).
The "Room Of Nightmares" video was directed by BLACK LABEL SOCIETY's longtime collaborator Justin Reich.
"Grimmest Hits" will be released in January 19, 2018
In an interview with Full Metal Jackie, BLACK LABEL SOCIETY leader Zakk Wylde, who rejoined Ozzy Osbourne's solo band earlier in the year, stated about BLS's upcoming activities: "In between the breaks and in between my nail appointments, the shaving of my legs, we've actually made another BLACK LABEL album. So that'll be coming out in the New Year. We gotta pick our spots where we want to put records in there. So the whole thing is, we were in The Black Vatican (Zakk's home studio), we made another album so that'll be coming out in the New Year and then the BLACK LABEL armada will start rolling in the New Year."
Prior to the release of the previous album "Catacombs Of The Black Vatican", BLACK LABEL SOCIETY amicably parted ways with longtime guitarist Nick Catanese and replaced him with Dario Lorina (LIZZY BORDEN).
Zakk will remain busy balancing his time on the road. ZAKK SABBATH is the first thing that will hit the road, later BLACK LABEL SOCIETY with be out touring, see all the dates below. Zakk will also joining Ozzy Osbourne at Aftershock, Ozzfest Meets Knotfest and Sweden Rock Festival.

I woke alone today.
For all the birds have flown.
Inside this empty house
Which no longer feels like home
No angel of mercy
Is gonna hear my call (oh no)
No angel of mercy
To dry the tears that shall not fall
That's part of the Lyrics of todays tune "Angel Of Mercy" with Black Label Society
"Catacombs of the Black Vatican" is the ninth studio album by heavy metal band Black Label Society. The album was released on April 8, 2014. It is the first Black Label Society album to feature former Breaking Benjamin drummer Chad Szeliga after fill-in Mike Froedge departed the band. Froedge himself replaced Will Hunt, who in turn replaced longtime drummer Craig Nunenmacher, all in the span of less than two years. Also the rhythm guitar player Nick Catanese's departure from the band and was replaced by Dario Lorina from Lizzy Borden. So in other words, alot of turbulence in the band. But the record in it self is a very good release.
Robert Trujillo, the Mexican-American bassist known for his role as the current bassist of American heavy metal band Metallica, he had a time in "BLS" a long time ago, played on the album "1919 Eternal" (2002). This energetic dude is turning 50 today, so happy birthday Robert!

Zakk Wylde – lead vocals, lead and rhythm guitar, piano (1998–present)

Todays tune "Angel Of Mercy" is taken from the ninth studio album "Catacombs of the Black Vatican" by Black Label Society. The video directed by Justin Reich.
