    Album number eight from Zakk Wylde sees him cranking up the macho guitar heroics to superhuman levels. [Oct. 2010, p. 103]

    Order Of The Black will keep diehard Black Label Society fans happy, but it's still some way from being a truly classic release. [28 Aug 2010, p.53]
  3. As pure music, Black Label Society remain as effective as they ever were on Order of the Black.
