VINNIE PAUL Comments On BLACK LABEL SOCIETY's DIMEBAG Tribute Video

August 25, 2005

Former PANTERA/DAMAGEPLAN drummer Vinnie Paul recently commented on BLACK LABEL SOCIETY's "In This River" video. The moving tribute to the guitar legend "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott, who would have celebrated his 39th birthday on Saturday, August 20, was directed by Eric Zimmerman and is the new single from BLACK LABEL SOCIETY's Artemis Records debut, "Mafia". Frontman Zakk Wylde, primarily known for his stunning guitar prowess, is featured in a rare appearance at the piano.

Commented Vinnie Paul in an Artemis press release: "I'm really glad Zakk dedicated his latest video to the memory of Dime. I remember the night Zakk played it for me on his bus. It's very hard when you lose a best friend, mentor, idol, companion or brother like Dime, and this video captures the emotion and pain that we all feel. As Dime always said, 'It's the highs and lows of rock and roll and you gotta keep on keepin' on.' Great job, Zakk!"

The video has been added to MTV2's "Headbanger's Ball", Fuse's "Uranium" and "Metal Asylum". "In This River" went for adds at both Active and Mainstream Rock formats August 23. Numerous stations have added the single early, including the huge WRIF/Detroit and WCCC/Hartford.
