SO YOU SAY

ONCE MY BLOOD WAS STRONG

UNLIKE YOU

TELL RIGHT FROM WRONG
Sonic Brew
is the debut
studio album
by American
heavy metal band
released on
October 28, 1998,
in Japan
and
May 4, 1999,
in the United States
by Spitfire Records.
There was a long delay
before it was released
outside Japan
because of
poor audio mixing.
Due to the delay,
Wylde and drummer
Phil Ondich
recorded
"Lost My Better Half"
as a bonus track
for the U.S. edition.
The recording of
the more aggressive
track reportedly
prompted
Zakk Wylde
to pursue a
heavier direction
for the band's
music thereafter.
Sonic Brew
was finally released on
May 4, 1999,
with a standard
gloss-printed booklet.
Early copies came
packed with a free
Zakk Wylde
guitar pick.
Subsequently,
the Johnnie Walker
whisky company
issued a
cease-and-desist order
to Wylde
on the album cover,
which had been
designed to match,
except for its wording,
the distiller's
graphic design
for its bottles of
Black Label Whisky.
The band decided to
reissue the album
with a different
album cover
with the band's
skull logo,
and as an
added incentive
for fans who wanted
to buy this
now-third version
of the album,
they included a cover of
Ozzy Osbourne's
"No More Tears",
which Wylde
and Mike Inez
had written.
"Born to Lose"
and
"No More Tears"
were released as
promotional singles f
or the album,
though no videos
were made. "
Bored to Tears"
had a promotional video
released for the album's
20th anniversary.
