During a recent appearance on “Lipps Service With Scott Lipps,” Black Label Society frontman Zakk Wylde offered an update on the band’s new album. The effort is expected to be released in late 2025 or early 2026.

Wylde said the following:
“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. But I mean, 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. I think if you ask any musician, they’ll tell you, when you’re in a recording studio, it’s just a breeding ground for inspiration. Because everything sounds good… Whether you’re sitting with an acoustic guitar, or you’re sitting behind a piano, or you got the big distorted guitars going, the drums sound like cannons. So everything just sounds amazing. And it just is very inspiring.”
