Black Label Society Drops Engines of Demolition – March 27, 2026

After years of anticipation, BLS released their 12th studio album Engines of Demolition on March 27, 2026 via MNRK Heavy / Spinefarm Records. Packed with signature BLS firepower, the record features crushing anthems like “Name In Blood”, “Broken and Blind”, “The Gallows”, and the heartfelt Ozzy tribute “Ozzy’s Song.”

Zakk calls it one of the most personal and powerful chapters yet — blending brutal riffs, bluesy leads, and raw emotion that only the Pride & Glory legend can deliver. Fans are calling it a return to form that hits like a sledgehammer.

Standout Tracks:

• Name In Blood

• Gatherer of Souls

• Broken and Blind

• The Gallows

• Ozzy’s Song (emotional ballad)
