1919 Eternal (2002) (SPITFIRE RECORDS) Black Label Society (Zakk Wylde)
Album Description:
1919 ETERNAL is the third album by the heavy metal band Black Label Society. It was released on March 5, 2002 and was written for Zakk's father. 1919 ETERNAL follows Black Label Society'S 2000 release STRONGER THAN DEATH.
Five songs from these album sessions were written by Zakk for Ozzy's album DOWN TO EARTH. Ozzy rejected the songs because they were "too Black Label", so Zakk kept them for this album. The songs were "Bleed For Me", "Life/Birth/Blood/Doom", "Demise Of Sanity", an alternate piano version of "Bridge To Cross" and a demo presumably called "I'll Find The Way". The latter two were never released. These original demo songs featured drummer Christian Werr, a friend of Zakk's who happened to be in the right place at the right time to record the tracks. Later on, when Zakk went to re-record these demos for 1919 ETERNAL, Christian's drum tracks were used for Bleed For Me, Life/Birth/Blood/Doom, and Demise Of Sanity, which is why Craig Nunenmacher does not appear on these songs.
A career defining album, 1919 ETERNAL is a hard-charging metal record that brings together superior songwriting, Zakk's staggering riffery and makes no compromises, delivering stomping rhythms, growling vocals, and of course, chainsaw-from-hell guitars on a mission to destroy all in their path. Spitfire Records. 2002.
