Hailing from Richmond, VA, Lamb of God has been revitalizing pure American metal since 1994. After changing their namefrom Burn thePriest to Lambof God and settling on a final line-up in1999, New American Gospel was released upon theunsuspecting masses on MetalBlade Records.Theirdistinctive style set them apart from other American metal bands at thetime - based around a brutal groove metal riffingstyle, Lamb of God crushedskulls and smashes cunts, and not withoutdisplaying a definite affinity for thrash and death metal. 2003'sAsthe Palaces Burndove deeper intomusical prowesswith a developing technicality in riffs and solos, while the lyrics spoke of issues rangingfrom politics to heresy, religion tosubstanceabuse.Lamb of God broke ground in 2004 when they were signed to Epic records, one of the few extreme metal bands in recenttimes to receivemass mediaattention. With this new-found confidence that heavy metal was not yet dead, they thenreleasedAshes of the Wake, thepinnacle of their one-of-a-kind sound.Featuring technical guitar riffs, intense drumtechnique, and malicious vocals based upon internalstruggles and societal issues, Lamb ofGod was set to release theirmagnum opus to their largest audience yet.With extreme music finally getting its deserved attention, one year later they went on to release Killadelphia, a 70-minutelivePhiladelphiaconcert DVD featuring Lamb of God in their most insanely metal moments. They have now grown intoan unstoppable force; riffswith a punishing vibeand a steady rhythmic flair, drums worthy of professional dissection, ear-shredding guitar solos, and vocals and lyricswith a truly unique air. Theworldnow waits in awe for their2006albumSacrament,which will prove once and for all through its technicalfinesse and musical invention thatAmericarules heavy metal. « hide |
