Lamb Of God do not fuck around. Ever since they left behind the Burn The Priest moniker at the turn of the millennium (worried about being mistaken for a Satanic metal outfit), the LOG brand has been a guarantee of deep grooves, concrete hard edges and righteous lyrical fire from Virginia’s most uncompromising musical quintet.
Four of the current line-up have been present from the beginning: vocalist D. Randall “Randy” Blythe, guitarists Mark Morton and Willie Adler, and bassist John Campbell. Winds Of Plague sticksman Art Cruz stepped in to replace Willie’s enormously accomplished brother Chris behind the kit in 2019, but the mission has remained the same as they continue to be the heaviest force in modern mainstream metal.
