Talk:Black Label Society
Metal Unassessed | |||||||

"Black Label Society is a heavy metal band and the brainchild of guitarist/vocalist/pianist/songwriter Zakk Wylde..."
I'm editing it to simply "...brainchild of Zakk Wylde..."
Everybody I know says "Black Label Society" is Southern Rock. I don't know man... it seems a little too heavy sometimes to be considered just "Rock." Plus Zakk was born in New Jersey, not that that would necessarily eliminate him from being southern rock just because he was born in the north (He seems to appreciate the south and has what many might consider a pride in the south and heavy influence by country and blues artists from the south), but one may say its "Groove Metal heavily influenced by Southern Rock".... Granted, his "Pride and Glory" and "Book of Shadows" and even "Volume VI" was more along the category of Southern Rock than all his other releases, and could be categorized as so, I sort of contend that most of his releases are Groove Metal.
Why isn't anything about Mike Inez in here?
- A better question would be - why does this article suck so much? It could use a complete rewrite by someone who knows how to edit the Wiki articles and is familiar with the band to some degree. 75.2.12.47 23:13, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
Sludge/Stoner Metal.
I think is is the best way to classify them.

BLS Singles Articles Created
Good news, everyone. I just created tons of articles for most of the previously-nonexistent articles on Black Label Society's awesome singles. They're not too detailed yet, though. I'll leave that for you guys to fill in and extend. Have fun, and remember,
Black Label Society ROCKS!!!!!!!! -URFG
Pov Changes
The line "Not one of their albums has gone Gold. Their days as a band are certainly numbered." seams a bit POV to me so I
am removing it.
Just about the whole article's been vandalized! However, I've fixed it to the best of my knowledge. Can we request a lock for this page now? I'm upset about this. URFG
