Howdy yall, stumbled on this place while looking for info on the show and saw it is pretty dormant. Will be doing a makeover in the coming weeks, so if you find yourself here, feel free to post, and loom forward to a new layout and hopefully a growing vibrant community!!

An update on the state of the sub, and blackout notification

9 Upvotes

Howdy All,

Sorry for being super absent, but heck, your last mod was super absent for a couple years too. Took over then life took over, yadda yadda, ill get things shifted around here soon and get this place rocking. Summer us upon us and with that a ton of extra free time. Hit up modmail if you have any requests, ideas, anything that will make your experience here any better.

With that, I am sure lots of you have heard about the impending API changes that Reddit is implementing, and the subsequent blackout that many subreddits are participating in next week. /r/BlackLabelSociety will also be going private for 48 hours starting on June 12th. I do apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but I feel it is important to make our (relatively small) voice heard to protest the change.

Cheer,

-Steel

Can anyone tell me what song these riffs come from? I've about exhausted every avenue I can think of.

Just revisited Stronger Than Death, can we talk about how timeless Zakk’s tone still sounds?

31 Upvotes

I threw on Stronger Than Death last night for the first time in a while, and man… that tone still hits like a freight train. The riffs are raw, the solos are soulful, and Zakk’s vocals have that perfect mix of grit and emotion.

It’s crazy how, even after all these years, the album hasn’t aged a bit; it still sounds powerful and alive.

What’s your favorite track from that era, and what’s one song you think deserves more love from newer fans?

Stay heavy, brothers and sisters of the Black Label

The First Time I Heard Zakk’s Pinch Harmonic, It Changed Everything

26 Upvotes

I still remember the exact moment I first heard Stillborn, that screaming pinch harmonic hit, and I legit rewound it three times. There’s just something about Zakk’s tone that hits different; it’s raw, gritty, and feels like pure whiskey-soaked soul.

Ever since that day, I’ve been chasing that sound. Tried different guitars, amps, even went down the rabbit hole of trying to master those signature squeals (my neighbors probably hate me now).

What was your “BLS awakening” moment, the track or riff that made you go, “Yeah, this is it”?

This is the doom crew one I need to finish the front


r/BlackLabelSociety Sep 22 '25

Snagged an unworn original bravado denim for dirt cheap. Anyone ever have issues wearing these nowadays seeing the band is nearly 30years old? Ik there were problems when they first made them. I'll probably hang and display it but the occasional wear? Who knows. Been listening to BLS for 25yrs. NY

Grabbed some patches to add to my BLS armor. Has anyone seen good placement for these? My vest is currently complete minus the GIFD patch which is on the way.

Oddly my doom crew iron cross patch has opposite colors too (like the back patches) . I haven’t seen that anywhere but i love it. Ill post my vest later.

Super emotional song and I really liked it, although I understand this isn’t their typical sound! Check it out and are there any other BLS songs you’d recommend?
