Black Label Society tour

Black Label Society has mapped out a U.S. headline run behind *Engines of Demolition*, starting August 25 in Albany, New York, and ending October 2 in Bend, Oregon. (digital.abcaudio.com) The support bill pairs Zakk Wylde’s main band with Zakk Sabbath, his Black Sabbath tribute act, and Dark Chapel on the same package. ABC Audio reported the tour announcement on April 22, 2026, and directed fans to the band’s official site for the full routing and ticket details. (digital.abcaudio.com) On Black Label Society’s official tour page, the band’s calendar shows the U.S. leg beginning at Palace Theatre in Albany on August 25 after spring U.S. dates and a long stretch of overseas festival and club shows. The same page lists the next stop on August 26 at Buffalo RiverWorks in Buffalo, showing the run is built as a market-by-market theater and club tour rather than a one-off festival swing. (blacklabelsociety.com) The tour lands less than five months after *Engines of Demolition* arrived on March 27, 2026. MNRK Music Group called it Black Label Society’s first studio album since 2021’s *Doom Crew Inc.* and said Zakk Wylde began writing it in 2022 during the Pantera Celebration World Tour. (mnrk.com) MNRK also said the album rollout started with “Name In Blood,” and the record includes “Ozzy’s Song,” which ABC Audio described as a tribute to Ozzy Osbourne. That ties the new tour to Wylde’s longest-running association outside Black Label Society: his years as guitarist in Osbourne’s solo band. (mnrk.com, digital.abcaudio.com) The package also shows how veteran metal acts are building bills in 2026. Instead of a single opener, this run folds in Wylde’s own parallel project, Zakk Sabbath, and Dark Chapel, the band led by Black Label Society guitarist Dario Lorina, according to multiple tour reports. (digital.abcaudio.com, themetallist.com) Before the late-summer U.S. leg starts, Black Label Society is already booked for May dates in North Myrtle Beach, Silver Spring, Salem, Nashville, Joliet and Columbus, followed by European dates from late May into mid-August. The official site lists those shows alongside the new American run, making the fall dates part of a yearlong touring cycle rather than a standalone announcement. (blacklabelsociety.com) For Black Label Society, the immediate next step is straightforward: finish the spring and summer road work, then bring the new album back across U.S. rooms from Albany to Bend in a six-week fall push.
