A Wylde Night of Riffs, Reverence and Raw Power. Boeing Center 9-4

Black Label Society, Zakk Sabbath & Dark Chapel: A Wylde Night of Riffs, Reverence and Raw Power. There are concert bills, and then there are full-blown heavy-metal pilgrimages. Black Label Society’s 2026 tour with Zakk Sabbath and Dark Chapel belongs firmly in the latter category: three bands, one musical family, and enough distortion to rattle the foundations.

Dark Chapel opened the evening with a darker, more atmospheric strain of hard rock. Fronted by Black Label Society guitarist Dario Lorina, alongside Dylan Dyce, Mike Gunn and Carlos Silva, the band immediately established its identity with “Afterglow,” followed by “Hollow Smile,” “Sign of Life” and “Hit of Your Love.” Their unexpected cover of Bill Withers’ “Ain’t No Sunshine” was a standout, transforming the soul classic into something brooding and muscular before “Burns the Flame” brought the set to a satisfying close.

Then came Zakk Sabbath: Wylde on guitar and vocals, backed by Black Label Society comrades John “JD” DeServio on bass and Jeff Fabb on drums. Their compact set was a masterclass in turning Sabbath worship into a physical experience. “Children of the Grave,” “Snowblind,” “Fairies Wear Boots,” “N.I.B.” and “War Pigs” arrived with enormous riffs and Wylde’s unmistakable guitar pyrotechnics. “War Pigs” proved the obvious crowd killer, with Wylde taking the performance beyond tribute-band territory and into full arena-rock spectacle.ll,"

By the time Black Label Society appeared, the evening had already delivered a serious dose of Sabbath, but Wylde still had plenty left in the tank. Joined by Lorina, DeServio and Fabb, BLS opened with “Funeral Bell,” before tearing through “Name in Blood,” “Destroy & Conquer,” “A Love Unreal.” The set cleverly balanced newer material from Engines of Demolition with established fan favorites. An emotional turn arrived with Ozzy Osbourne’s “No More Tears” and, especially, “In This River,” Wylde’s long-standing tribute to Dimebag Darrell. Later, “The Blessed Hellride,” “Fire It Up,” “Suicide Messiah” and “Stillborn” restored the night's brute-force momentum.

What made the evening special wasn't simply the volume or virtuosity. It was the sense of musical continuity: Dark Chapel representing the future, Zakk Sabbath honoring the foundation, and Black Label Society carrying the torch forward. Three sets, four core musicians, and one unmistakable Wylde fingerprint made this far more than a standard metal package—it was a celebration of where heavy music came from and where it can still go.
