The Fillmore Silver Spring
In need of some classic heavy metal to ring in the new year? Well, you’re in luck. Industry legend Zakk Wylde will be performing with a few fellow metal icons in the form of Zakk Sabbath. The Black Sabbath cover band is headed to The Fillmore in Silver Spring, Maryland to perform some of the iconic Sabbath tunes they covered on their latest album, Greatest Riffs. Let loose and join in on the chaos this New Years Eve. Seriously, get moshin’.
Zakk Sabbath is a dream team made up of metal legends from all sorts of noteworthy backgrounds. Fronted and founded by the one and only Zakk Wylde (most recently played guitar for Pantera on their latest tour, also known for fronting Black Label Society and as Ozzy Osbourne’s lead guitarist.) The band has been performing unforgettable Sabbath covers since 2014. Ten years later, they’re still rocking out just as hard. Tickets for their upcoming show at The Fillmore in Silver Spring can be bought online right now, so get going.
Zakk Sabbath is a band brought together by a shared love of one of the most iconic heavy metal bands of all time. But these guys aren’t just devoted Sabbath fans - they’re established musicians in their own right. Members Zakk Wlyde and Rob “Blasko” Nicholson play with Ozzy himself on tour. Rob also plays bass for Rob Zombie. Joey Castillo, however, is best known for being a long-running drummer for Queens of the Stone Age. All in all, these three dudes are mega talented. While almost nothing can compare to seeing Black Sabbath live back in their heyday, a Zakk Sabbath concert comes pretty dang close. See for yourself this New Years Eve after you get tickets for their Maryland show. Trust me on this one.
For years, fans of Zakk Sabbath have been begging the band to release digital copies of their incredible covers. This year, their prayers were answered. Released on all music streaming services on September 17th, Greatest Riffs features a collection of recorded songs previously only available physically. This is the first time ever that Zakk Sabbath has released official recordings of their songs. And now, they’re setting off on another American tour to celebrate. The band tours rather infrequently, so make sure you get your tickets to this one. It’ll be a night for the books, that’s for sure. Get tickets now.
With a band as legendary and iconic as Black Sabbath, it’s hard for any group of performers to even hold a candle to their energy and influence on stage. However, by sheer force of will, Zakk Sabbath has been doing exactly that for a decade now. The timelessness of Sabbath’s catalogue paired with Zakk Sabbath’s members’ long-running history in the scene makes for a performance unlike any other. Don’t believe me? See for yourself when they hit up The Fillmore Silver Spring in Maryland this New Years. You won’t regret it.
