BLACK LABEL SOCIETY has announced the summer/fall 2026 leg of their 'American Crusade' tour — 22 dates across the United States from August 25 to October 2. Support on all nights comes from ZAKK SABBATH, the BLACK SABBATH tribute project featuring BLS members, and DARK CHAPEL, the band fronted by BLS guitarist Dario Lorina.
The tour supports Engines Of Demolition, released in March 2026 on MNRK Heavy — the band's first studio album in five years. The 15-track record includes singles 'Name In Blood', 'Broken And Blind', and 'Lord Humungus', plus a tribute track titled 'Ozzy's Song' honouring the legendary BLACK SABBATH vocalist OZZY OSBOURNE.
BLABBERMOUTH.NET presale ran April 22–23 with code BBMBLS26; general on-sale begins April 24 at 10 a.m. local time.
Frontman ZAKK WYLDE described his approach to songwriting with characteristic bluntness: "It's like: here's the beginning, the middle, and here's the end — and then we're done." That riff-first simplicity has always been BLACK LABEL SOCIETY's greatest strength, and Engines Of Demolition delivers the same unapologetic heavy metal excellence the band has built its reputation on.
Touring lineup: ZAKK WYLDE (vocals, guitar, piano), John 'JD' DeServio (bass), Jeff Fabb (drums), and Dario Lorina (guitar). Essential summer metal — no apologies required.
