Black Label Society: More US Dates Revealed

Black Label Society will embark on the "Black Label Bash" headlining tour in March. This trek, which will feature support from Sevendust, will be the band's first in North America since the fall of 2007.

According to Black Label Society guitarist/vocalist Zakk Wylde, the current trek through Europe has been a huge success — and with the release of a greatest-hits package in the spring, "the time felt good to get back on the bus with the guys back home."

Black Label Society announced in June 2007 that it had parted ways with Roadrunner Records.

The group's sole release through Roadrunner was 2006's "Shot To Hell" album.

"Shot To Hell" sold just under 32,000 copies in the United States during its first week of release — less than the 45,000 copies shifted by BLS's "Mafia" (Artemis) back in March 2005 — to land at position No. 21 on The Billboard 200 chart.

You guys got it all wrong. What BLS really needs to do is release another f**king album! 2 years is way too long to be without some new BLS!

.. and then they should tour and tour Australia too.
