1919★Eternal, Black Label Society's third album, came out on Spitfire on March 5, 2002, and Zakk Wylde wrote it for his father. He produced, sang and played lead guitar, with Nick Catanese on second guitar and backing vocals and Craig Nunenmacher on drums, in the band Wylde had started in Los Angeles in 1998.
Some of it was meant for someone else. Wylde had written five songs for Ozzy Osbourne's Down to Earth, and Ozzy turned them down as too Black Label, so three of them, "Bleed for Me", "Life, Birth, Blood, Doom" and "Demise of Sanity", ended up here. They kept the demo drum tracks by Wylde's friend Christian Werr, who happened to be around when they were cut, so Nunenmacher sits those out. The rest is old-school heavy metal with riffs thick as tree trunks and Wylde bellowing over the top, "Genocide Junkies" included.
