Guitar icon Zakk Wylde will release Book Of Shadows II on April 8th, 2016 via Entertainment One Music, his first solo release in 20 years. This release is the highly anticipated follow up to 1996 s Book of Shadows LP, a classic album Wylde released between his work with Ozzy Osbourne that has since become a fan favorite. Book Of Shadows II was recently named as one of the "Most Anticipated Metal Releases of 2016" via by Rolling Stone magazine

Wylde has been feverishly working on new material since he wrapped up Black Label Society s Unblackened spring tour last year. All songs on Book of Shadows II were recorded and produced at Wylde s legendary home studio, The Black Vatican, which produced several of Wylde s recent releases. The new effort will be followed by a wave of tour dates in support to be announced soon.
