Black Label Society To Feature In Guitar Hero World Tour?

All signs point to yes.

Edit: We may have the song listed here for you shortly…

Starting with the big leak back in June that gave a few details about Guitar Hero World Tour including that Black Label Society guitarist Zakk Wylde would be a playable character. Of course that didn’t mean much as Wylde is also the guitarist for Ozzy Osbourne who we knew would have a song in Guitar Hero World Tour after a previous leak.

Then Game Informer issue #164 had a photo of the Neversoft studios, and it featured posters of Black Sabbath and Guns N’ Roses (both in Guitar Hero III), and a poster of Black Label Society. Now that could just say that Neversoft are fans and that the poster is merely a coincidence, or perhaps that was giving us a heads up on what to expect.

Edit: Someone just let us know that a recent video from showed Guitar Hero World Tour in action with lyrics that match a Black Label Society song. They were unable to locate the video, but if it’s true and you (yes, you reading this) are able to find it, could you please leave a web address in the comments and we will update this post.

Now Black Label Society’s drummer, Craig Nunenmacher, told a reporter during an interview that Black Label Society will have a song in the upcoming Guitar Hero. The song in question we are trying to find out, and will let you know when we do.

The best part: The interviewer is Steve Austin who is doing the interview with a focus on recipes, for a tie-in with a website that features celebrities.
