Deep within the womb of time,
a creature thus be born
The seed of life is united with
the egg of tyranny
Gestates forth from within the womb of life
for three-quarter and nigh a year
The creature thus be born!
The creature thus be formed!
And ye of years...
Forty-one and bells
Will chime!
When the heavens open up
and drink from the silver cup
The creature thus be born!
And blow the magic horn!
To alert the spirit deep within the cycle of life.
The creature has begun it's journey deep forlorn,
upon this day which he be formed
In the sea of mucus the spirit rides down from the mountain
and unites with the creature in the womb
A holy union, dark mortality, until the dark mortality
breaks the chain of life
The creature thus be born
And every year raineth down the celebratory tears
A celebration of the years
from mere mortal sky

Are you ever going to pay Gedde for the vocals?

Why did I even get wasted and work with you? I mean, this isn't even a real microphone. It's a stick with a marshmallow on it.

Wylde can play, no question.... but holy shiat his singing sucks.

The problem with Randy is that he never left the 80s.

his story about leaving sharon ordered rehab is very funny

Hes only 41? Seems like hes been rocking for ages!

If you are a BLS fan then this is worth 10 minutes of your time.

 
Lothiriel0421 2009-01-14 11:04:00 AM  
I'll never forget last BLS show I went to...a huge security guard was hassling a fan who had a back stage pass, next thing that guy knew Zakk tapped him on the shoulder and punched him square in the jaw. The fan got to watch the show from the side of the stage...awesome

 
edronny 2009-01-14 11:43:46 AM  
41? Wow. I would have guessed 51.

He's still on my shiat list after the 357 Choppers/Free Zakk Les Paul scam from a few years ago.

 
Lloyd Braun 2009-01-14 11:50:34 AM  
When I first saw the No More Tears video in 1991 I said Zakk Wylde was the coolest man of the face of the planet. I wanted to be Zaak Wylde.

More like Zakk Mylde.

I was wondering who would usher in the Master Shake reference...

 
Onkel Buck 2009-01-14 12:13:58 PM  
I have seen Zakk with Ozzy. An unplugged show in Savannah for his first solo album in 96, and with BLS, and every showed kicked ass!

And he'll remind you of this little fact on every. single. song.

 
ekdikeo4 2009-01-14 12:40:19 PM  
Anyone else first hear this, and thought it was some sort of Ozzy song from the Blizzard of Ozz era, that we all somehow missed?

It sounds like old Ozzy singing, and Randy Rhodes playing.

And good god-damn this dude has put on some muscle in the last 20 years.

 
Nastyboy 2009-01-14 01:25:35 PM  
meh....

I totally kicked his ass in our duel in Guitar Hero World Tour.

The song features Ozzy...

Zakk Wylde is seriously one the most overrated, talentless hacks in metal today.

 
unfarkingbelievable 2009-01-14 01:34:53 PM  
Why can't he ditch the stupid madeup name and use his real one? It's so MTV Hair Band.

 
Philbigtime 2009-01-14 01:37:07 PM  
Zakk Wylde is a freakin' machine. He has great speed, melodic ideas, and overall technique.

However, Mr. Wylde also introduced a specific type of pinch harmonic. While he can pull it off himself quite well (although far too often), 14-year-olds in Guitar Center cannot. And they try over. And over. And OVER (wheedlie-whee). And THEN I get the COPS called on me for BEATING young children SENSELESS. Tell me, is it really my fault?!?!?

For this, Mr. Wylde, you shall never be forgiven.

I wish I could do pinch harmonics. It would make me very happy. I've practiced them for hours and I just can't get it right.

Find someone, still living, that's more superior than Zakk.

Get a hotter pickup. I use a George Lynch "Screamin Demon" in my ESP.

Hotter as in Active compared to Passive? On the same note... How difficult is it to change pickups in a guitar? I've got a craptastic set of pickups in an old no name I have but I LOVE the shape, feel, and weight of the guitar. It makes me play better, but the pickups and the vol/tone knobs and the pickup selector electronics blow donkey balls.

 
Fearofablankplanet 2009-01-14 02:20:43 PM  
His music is Ozzie without the old man stumbling across the stage. Anyone noticed how much his vocals sound like the Ozz man? I love his hard drinking interviews, his music, not so much. But I'm not hatin!

 
Patterson 2009-01-14 02:21:24 PM  
He's not terrible, but he is far from deserving of his Guitar Hero tag.

Dear God, I think you may have summoned MSL. =P

But in all honesty, he's good, but he's no Petrucci, Gilbert, Slash, Friedman, Lynch, and a long list of others both older and younger than he is. I love his style to death, but most of it is predictable and slightly boring to listen to more than one song in a row at a time.

Zakk's a more than competent guitarist, but to pedestal him as one of the modern "greats" is just a bit over the top.

That's what he was sold as, when he replaced Randy Rhodes. Which is not something I think he ever lived up to.

I'm not a huge fan of BLS but this motherfarker can play! Plus he has that whole I'm a viking that wants to rape and pillage look going for him which is nice.

No. Sorry.

Best player in metal (not saying too too much): Link

Dan Mongrain of Martyr is for my money the most skilled player in metal, and there are a TON of players that torch him. You can really dig Wylde's playing, but he's nothing special at all.
