Dallas: Black Label Society at The Bomb Factory

Black Label Society brings its blues-soaked, doom-heavy brand of American metal to The Bomb Factory in Dallas on September 5, with support from Zakk Sabbath and Dark Chapel, tickets starting at $37.

Founded in 1998 by guitarist Zakk Wylde after his long run as Ozzy Osbourne’s lead guitarist, Black Label Society built its reputation on thick, riff-driven Southern-fried metal delivered with Wylde’s signature bullseye-painted Les Paul guitars. Albums like “Sonic Brew,” “1919 Eternal,” “The Blessed Hellride,” and 2021’s “Doom Crew Inc.” have made the band a staple of the American heavy metal touring circuit for over two decades, built on a loyal “Doom Crew” fanbase that follows Wylde from arena tours with Ozzy back to clubs and theaters with his own band.

The Bomb Factory sits in the heart of Deep Ellum, one of Dallas’s most storied music neighborhoods, inside a cavernous converted warehouse that once housed an actual Bomb Factory sub-plant during World War II. Since reopening in 2015 with a Prince concert, the 4,300-capacity room has become one of North Texas’s premier mid-size venues, pairing raw industrial architecture with a modern sound system built for touring acts across every genre. Fans exploring Deep Ellum before a show can also check out The Bomb Factory’s own page on Texas Music Map for more on the venue’s history and upcoming calendar.

Opener Zakk Sabbath is Wylde’s own tribute act, digging into the earliest, heaviest Black Sabbath material alongside Joey Castillo (Queens of the Stone Age, Danzig) and Rob Nicholson (Blue Öyster Cult) — a rare chance to hear those foundational riffs reinterpreted by one of metal’s most respected guitarists. Dark Chapel opens the night with its own take on doom-leaning heavy rock.

Doors typically open at 7 PM for Bomb Factory shows, with an hour or so before the first opener. The venue is a short walk from Deep Ellum’s cluster of bars and restaurants, making it easy to grab dinner nearby before the show.
