Perfect way to end the album. This is my favorite album of prob the past few years. It's that good.
Totally agree.... I'm hard pressed to come up with a better album in ANY genre this good in a loooong time
#502 Re: The Sunset Strip » Shooter Jennings » 836 weeks ago
Ok.. Typical "me" long winded preamble complete.. The actual review will be written and posted tomorrow.... I still cannot stop listening to this album. Every day i get obsessed with a different track.... I agree Saikin... All Of This Could Have Been Yours knocked me on my ass.. and the reprise gives me chills.
#503 Re: The Sunset Strip » Shooter Jennings » 836 weeks ago
My review will be ready by Friday.... Fucking work... ugh
#504 Re: The Sunset Strip » Shooter Jennings » 837 weeks ago
whew..
I was beginning to think most everyone was ignoring the thread. That would be a shame. So far, this album is my front runner for the year... it's gonna take a whopper of a record to knock this one down. I cannot say enough good things about it. The "Official" review is coming tomorrow....
#505 Re: The Sunset Strip » Shooter Jennings » 837 weeks ago
I've been virtually fucking obsessed with it all week, man....
#506 Re: The Sunset Strip » Shooter Jennings » 837 weeks ago
After a week of black ribbons, i decided to revisit Electric Rodeo and The Wolf.... Not really BAD.... But now I remember what originally turned me off:
"Gone To Carolina"...
Listen to that song instrumentally and sing "Wanted, Dead Or Alive" by Bon Jovi along with it. Musically it's a complete fucking rip off....
After I heard that I was pissed, and Shooter was "dead to me".
He's MORE than made up for it with this one...
Huge Waylon fan here too, bro.... My old man used to get all tanked up and blare Waylon all night long when I was a kid...

I've just finished listening to this record from front to back for the 8th time in 4 days... And I must say:
It. Is. Amazing.
I kinda dug Stargunn ( his wanna-be GnR rock band) and loved Put The O Back In Country... after that, he put out two mediocre wanna-be Waylon records that had maybe one solid record between them....
But now, he's kinda chosen to abandon the country music scene altogether. I always felt that his music was more rock, anyway... the country aspect seemed a little forced.... But this? Jesus H. Christ. I'm probably gonna write a review of this bad boy in the next couple of days... I'll warn y'all: It's not for everyone. there is a HEAVY political theme throughout that may throw some people off.
I have no words to describe this monster... But I did find a fitting description: "Sort of Pink Floyd go on tour with Nine Inch Nails and they all drop acid together at a beer-and-BBQ joint in West Texas.".. And then write a concept album...Narrated by Stephen King....
It's nothing particularly groundbreaking... but brilliant nonetheless...
open your minds... turn all the lights off and listen to this entire album with GOOD headphones, and let it seep into your soul
"wake up"
the video for "summer of rage"....

#508 Re: The Sunset Strip » Chris Cornell- Scream » 837 weeks ago
not just one song struck me... just the album as a whole.
it plays like one continuous song and it ain't bad. it's pretty cool, actually....
cornell kinda threw me for a loop with the IDEA... but the execution is pretty bad ass...
so, mr. lofton... bust some up and give it another listen... all the way through with an open mind... you may have a new perspective
#509 Re: The Sunset Strip » Chris Cornell- Scream » 837 weeks ago
i got REALLY baked last night and listened to the record, finally....
i dig it.
so what if it took an enormous amount of weed to do so

"Craig Nunenmacher has resigned as BLS' drummer. We are sorry to see him leave. We wish Craig well in his new endeavors and have the utmost love and respect for him." ..Zakk Wylde
Barbaranne Wylde, wife and co-manager of BLACK LABEL SOCIETY frontman Zakk Wylde, has confirmed that drummer Craig Nunenmacher has left BLACK LABEL SOCIETY. She writes on her Twitter profile, "[Zakk] was going to share, but I guess I will... Craig has quit the band and we will have a new drummer very soon."
Roadrunner Records recently re-signed BLACK LABEL SOCIETY exclusively for the European territory. The band's as-yet-untitled studio album is due for release this summer.
BLACK LABEL SOCIETY is preparing to enter Zakk's newly completed mountain-top recording studio to record its latest slab of uncompromising, unfiltered, and unrestrained rock and roll. Recording is slated to start later this month and with the new flexibility of having a studio literally outside his home, Wylde expects to deliver his best material yet. "With the home studio I have this flexibility when inspiration hits to lay down new ideas at anytime — day or night — for re-recording later," he says. "This freshness should prove inspiring — and some of these first takes might even make it on the album," he enthuses.
Zakk continues, "I'm ready to work with our BLACK LABEL brothers and sisters at Roadrunner in Europe! They share the same Strength, Determination, Merciless, Forever attitude as BLACK LABEL SOCIETY does so it only seems natural to continue working together!"
Zakk's new studio was built by Zack Fagan of Under The Wire, a Studio City, California-based company which specializes in the installation of commercial and private recording studios and post-production complexes.
E1 Music recently announced the addition of BLACK LABEL SOCIETY to its rock and metal roster. The two-album deal covers North America exclusively.
BLACK LABEL SOCIETY's last studio album, "Shot to Hell" (2006), sold just under 32,000 copies in the United States during its first week of release — less than the 45,000 copies shifted by BLS's "Mafia" (Artemis) back in March 2005 — to land at position No. 21 on The Billboard 200 chart.
BLACK LABEL SOCIETY's "Skullage" DVD package sold 5,100 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 1 on the Top Music Videos chart. Released April 21, 2009 in three different configurations — CD, DVD and CD/DVD — this collection features the best of Zakk Wylde & Co. This massive greatest hits package is chock-full of live material, music videos, interviews, and a vivid cross-section of brutal and introspective tracks, from amped-up blazers like "Fire It Up" and "Suicide Messiah" to raw power ballads like "In This River" and "Spoke In The Wheel".
