New Black Label Society - "Parade of the Dead"

Here's a new offering from Black Label Society, ex-Ozzy Osbourne guitarist Zakk Wylde's main project. "Parade of the Dead" is the first single from upcoming album Order of the Black, and if it's any indication of the album as a whole, Wylde might just be breaking his string of recent mediocre releases. Like any good BLS song, the new track features the grizzled frontman's beer-soaked rasp, but it's really all about the rip-roaring guitars. Wylde unleashes nonstop six-string pyrotechnics, ranging from the descending, squealing post-chorus riff to the blues-by-way-of-shred solo. Pretty brutal.

Order of the Black drops August 10th.
