Putting out my album on my own label has been a great experience for me. It's been very inspiring. It's like a new start for me and having all this creative freedom is so liberating and exciting.

That's kind of the mission statement for the label: to try to do great music that touches people's hearts.
Ricky Skaggs

That's one of those things that will really hurt me personally, if I label a character or think about what it might do if it were to do well. I just try to do a good job with it.
Luke Wilson

That's why for Zakk Wylde's Black Label Society the colors are black and white. There are no gray issues. Life is black and it's white. There's no in-between.
Zakk Wylde

Steve Albini

The bungle tour is a bit up in the air due to the fact this at we are getting screwed by our overseas label.
