I'm a huge BLS and Zakk fan so when I heard that they were putting out their first new album in a couple years I had to get it.

Having listened to it once through, I have to say, it's what I've come to expect from Zakk and BLS.
I'd call it a triumphant return.

I has some medium tempo songs, a few slow jams, and some face melters.

Track List (My Ratings are out of 4    or maybe a thrown in for a good groove)

1 Fields of Unforgiveness


2 My Dying Time  


3 Believe    


4 Angel of Mercy    


5 Heart of Darkness  


6 Beyond the Down  


7 Scars


8 Damn the Flood ..........


9 I've Gone Away  


10 Empty Promises  


11 Shades of Gray

I'm a huge bls fan. I play with a zakk wylde les Paul. I didn't really like this record. Tons of poor mixing choices. There are a few decent songs but it overall felt very flat to me.

Compared to Stronger Than Death, 1919, Hellride, Sonic Brew, or even OOTB, it definitely isn't their best. But...it's still BLS, I like it, but don't love it.  Plus, no Nick Catanese, BLS has had so many different band members come and go.

WTF you didn't get the bonus songs?





Dark Side of the Sun is probably one of the best songs.





I do think Order of the Black is better. This one is pretty good though.
