"Signing Zakk and Black Label Society is an honor,� stated Roadrunner Records Director of A&R Mike Gitter (Killswitch Engage, Cradle of Filth). �The guy is genuine, rock royalty whose talent is only matched by his vision. He is the real deal and his legacy, as one of the greatest guitarists of all time has already been cemented.�
