Description
Richmond, VA natives LAMB OF GOD originally formed in 1994 as Burn The Priest while in college together at Virginia Commonwealth University, initially performing in meagre venues and hocking rough demos amongst the local scene. In 1998, the band changed their moniker to LAMB OF GOD, which would mark their impending ascension to top-tier status while maintaining a true and constant line-up of members and increasingly growing fanbase; a rarity in modern music. The band's first major release, 2000's New American Gospel, was immediately touted as an instant metal classic.
In 2007, just a short time after putting out monumentally successful releases Ashes of the Wake (Album, 2004) and Sacrament (Album, 2006), LAMB OF GOD was honoured with a Grammy nomination for the track "Redneck". This would mark the first of four Grammy nominations for the band.The fourth nomination arrived for the band's track "Ghost Walking", cut from their 2012 album Resolution (CD, #19 UK debut). Now, on the cusp of releasing their seventh full-length album VII: Sturm Und Drang, the five-piece is poised to prove their lasting consistency by offering another blistering contribution of the highest quality heavy metal - a record that no one other than LAMB OF GOD could truly execute. LAMB OF GOD frontman Randy Blythe states, "This is a very, very dark, yet sonically highly varied, record.
Having amassed the globe with countless world tours and millions of albums sold, all-the-while overcoming countless hurdles ranging from personal demons to vocalist Randy Blythe's 2013 trial in Prague (which resulted in the acclaimed 2014 full-length feature documentary, As The Palaces Burn, and upcoming book, Dark Days: A Memoir, authored by the frontman and releasing in July), LAMB OF GOD stands the test of time as the biggest, most influential heavy metal band of the new millennium.
