Recorded earlier this year at Los Angeles' Club Nokia, Unblackened is Black Label Society presenting their songs in a whole new light, with greater use of acoustic instrumentation. Wylde plays both guitar and piano, with Nick Catanase on guitar, John DeServio on bass/vocals, Chad Szeliga on drums, Derek Sherinian on keyboards/piano, and Greg Locascio providing additional vocals.
Their stripped-down approach highlights the subtler nuances of the songwriting, without losing any of the fire or intensity. Classics like 'Stillborn,' 'The Blessed Hellride,' 'In This River,' and many others are still punctuated by the stinging, searing solos that fans know and love, while showcasing the versatility of the band.
