BLACK LABEL SOCIETY has rolled out the official music video for its newest single "Name In Blood", shot by longtime visual partner Justin H. Reich of Three Thirty-Three Creative. The track marks the fourth single from the band’s upcoming studio album Engines Of Demolition , due out March 27 via MNRK Heavy.
The new single follows "Broken And Blind" , "The Gallows" , and "Lord Humungus" , continuing a campaign that has BLS fans worked up the way they used to get for new Ozzy LPs at the record store. The album will clock in with 15 tracks, including "Ozzy’s Song" , an obvious nod to Zakk Wylde’s decades-long partnership with Ozzy Osbourne — and let’s be honest, nobody else has earned the right to write that tune.
The "Name In Blood" video plays to the band's strengths: muscular riffs, Wylde’s unmistakable pinch harmonics, and that biker-bar-but-epic aesthetic the band practically trademarked. Reich’s been shooting this crew for years, so the visuals feel locked-in and lived-in rather than overproduced.
From an SEO angle Black Label Society "Name In Blood" music video , Black Label Society Engines Of Demolition , and Zakk Wylde new album are already trending phrases across the metal web, proving that nearly three decades in, BLS still moves the needle.
If you’ve been following Wylde for any amount of time, his approach hasn’t changed: riffs first, everything else after. Speaking to Rebel Radio 92.5 FM back in May 2025, Wylde put it in plain language:
"For me, it always starts with the riff… Especially with the heavy stuff, for me it's usually always the riff. And the riff will dictate where the song's going."
Same philosophy. Same results. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
In another 2025 chat with American Musical Supply, Wylde admitted that having a home studio made the whole process more efficient, not more precious:
"Most the time when we would do a record, it's just like there's an implosion of ideas… Even with 'The Gallows' and 'Lord Humungus', it was just kinda like I was jamming on 'em in my weight room on my amp… put a melody to it… we recorded it just then."
No spreadsheets. No committee meetings. Just riffs, reps, and results. That’s how rock used to be made and frankly, it’s refreshing to see someone still do it that way.

1. Name In Blood

Wylde formed BLACK LABEL SOCIETY in 1998, building the band in between constant touring and studio work with Ozzy Osbourne. For anyone keeping score, Zakk’s been at Ozzy’s side for nearly four decades, appearing on classic records like No More Tears , Ozzmosis , and Black Rain . Guitar World’s put him on their cover more than some players have sold records.
With nearly a dozen studio albums under their belt, BLACK LABEL SOCIETY has sold millions, charted high, and stayed on the road when a lot of bands from their era quietly checked out. Order Of The Black (2010) and Catacombs Of The Black Vatican (2014) both cracked the top five on the hard rock charts.
Not bad for a band born out of riffs and stubbornness.
