Black Label Society is here to become much bigger than they are (physically) all thanks to their new single “Lord Humungous”. It’s got some pretty crunchy riffs, a big solo, even bigger costumes, and pretty much does all the things you want a Black Label Society single to do at this time. The single comes alongside a music video directed by Justin H. Reich of Three Thirty-Three Creative.
As for a new Black Label Society record, frontman Zakk Wylde said in a 2024 interview with Lipps Service With Scott Lipps that it could be coming either this year or next year.
While reflecting on their current songwriting and recording sessions, Zakk revealed: “We’ve been recording a batch of stuff while we’re home. I mean, obviously it’s gonna be a lot of — we’re gonna be doing a Pantera celebration tour throughout 2025, and then there’s going to be Zakk Sabbath shows peppered in there as well. So I’d imagine somewhere — I don’t know — maybe late 2025, early ’26, or whatever, putting out another Black Label album.
Wylde expressed how the extended timeline allows for a more reflective creative process. “All it does to me, it just gives you more time to just keep writing and listening to stuff and going back and going, ‘No, you know what? Let me put more orange on that as opposed to red,’ where you can actually sit back and look at it and everything like that. ‘Cause usually, most of the time when I do the records, I’ll go in, whether it was Stillborn, Suicide Messiah, anything like that, with nothing.”
