June 7, 1994 - 2024: 30 years of: Pride & Glory.

Zakk goes hard Americana.

Following 1991's No More Tears record and tour-cycle, the Madman officially retired ...until his 1995 Ozzmosis CD. But during this downtime, Zakk Wylde bloomed deeper into his rhythmnblues roots ...here to display his pride and glory.

From the swamps to the Marshall stacks, this riff-o-rama makes ya "Loosin' Your Mind". More high-gain is spat on "Harvester Of Pain", the twang of "Machine Gun Man" and "Toe'n The Line" ...a bloodbath in paradise, some of the coolest ZZ TOP tone worships.

Southernrock to almost sludgemetal, time to "Shine On" and sip "Troubled Wine" and diametrically, the soulful "Sweet Jesus" could've been FM-material. The evident BLACK SABBATH riff vibe of "The Chosen One" hammers-on, while drenched in dirt, Wylde proves he truly is a "Horse Called War".

More of a personal outlet than a commercial-venture, Zakk's next solo-move, 1996's acoustic Book Of Shadows solo-CD, would send us another 90° trick. But fear not, through strenght, determination and forever mercilessness, he would then embrace the biker-culture to it's full potential with his masterplan of grandiose delight: 1998's BLACK LABEL SOCIETY.
