\u202FBLACK LABEL SOCIETY has released the official music video for "Ozzy's Song", a tribute to BLACK SABBATH singer Ozzy Osbourne.
The clip, directed by Justin H.
Reich of Three Thirty-three Creative, honors the iconic frontman and guitarist/vocalist Zakk Wylde's longtime bandmate.
"Ozzy's Song" serves as a fitting finale to BLACK LABEL SOCIETY's new album, "Engines Of Demolition", which dropped on March 27 via MNRK Heavy.\u202F \u202FI spoke with São Paulo, Brazil's 89 FM A Rádio Rock radio station about the song and how it came together.
"Yeah, I had the music written 'cause we'd been writing this album for the last three and a half years, almost four years," Zakk said.
"So, we stockpiled all these songs.
And I was real happy with the way the music came out." He continued, "My wife would always be listening to it in the truck, Barbaranne, she'd be, like, 'Babe, put on Ozzy's song again.' So that was pretty much just the working title." \u202FWylde previously discussed Ozzy's passing last August in an interview with Waste Some Time With Jason Green.
He said at the time: "It was so crazy, 'cause when we went back to the house — obviously we went home [in early July after the 'Back To The Beginning' concert], and then Barb [Zakk's wife Barbaranne] called me up [when I was on the road with PANTERA to tell me] that Ozz passed away.\
