Concert Review: Black Label Society with The New Black at Backstage in Munich by Alexandra Bock

July 20, 2015

Convert Review Black Label Society / The New Black July 19, 2015, Backstage Werk, Munich It was a hot summer night yesterday, when Black Label Society invited all Berzerkers to another show in Munich. The Backstage Werk was really crowded and the heat inside the venue almost unbearable. But we made it through and the little rainshower outside at the end of the show was welcomed by everyone. But, first things first….. ‘The New Black’, a German band from Würzburg, opened the show. They play a heavy, melodic and groovy sound and really knew how to start a show. After their set, a big curtain was drawn up and shielded the view to the stage. A little after 9 pm an intro started, guitars began to wail, the veil dropped down and with loud cheers from the audience Black Label Society started their set. It was a very guitar driven show, which is to be expected when one of the greatest guitarists is playing in town. Set list included ‘In This River’, ‘My [Read More]

Black Label Society dominated Aftershock with their stellar set

September 20, 2014

Aftershock Festival truly was filled with so many great bands but one set that really stood out was the performance by Black Label Society. It is hard at festivals since you could have several bands playing at the same time but Black Label Society dominated the crowd. Their crowd was filled with both, longtime and new Berzerkers of all ages. Nothing stopped the dedicated fans as they braved the intense 100+ temps to bear witness to the shredding madness of Zakk and his crew. The set was stellar and the fans went wild, begging for more. If one thing I wanted, was a longer set since I could have watched them all day long! Check out the photos by our Rockin Ryan of the set: If you weren’t able to make it to Aftershock, don’t worry, Black Label Society have been quite busy on some heavy duty touring and it will start again in October. Check the dates and make sure to not miss them if they are coming to a venue even remotely [Read More]

Black Label Society delivers a spine tingling set at Regency Ballroom for Golden Gods Tour

June 8, 2014

What a night! This past Friday, the place to be was at the Regency Ballroom in San Francisco for the Revolver Golden Gods Tour. There was a line around the block as everyone came out in full force to catch Black Label Society perform. Also make sure to check out our coverage of the amazing two opening bands, Devil You Know and Butcher Babies. I think it was a sold out show or nearly sold out since earlier that day they had only a 100 or so tickets left. It was packed from front to back, left to right and the entire upstairs was filled with no empty seats. Black Label Society came out and were behind a full stage curtain, and then the lights went up and the curtain came down. Our photographer Rockin Ryan was in the photo pit and got wildly tangled in the rope but he made it out just in time to catch Zakk take center stage! The crowd went WYLDE as they started with My Dying Time. There was a full on [Read More]
