How Can Lamb of God Possibly Be This Good?

I have not a fucking clue. Their recently-released slab of brutality, Wrath, is so good it's sickening. No metal band since Pantera has been able to groove, thrash and write legitimately fantastic songs and hooks like this. As mentioned in a few recent interviews, singer Randall Blythe has upped his game once more, adapting a very Testament-esque Chuck Billy vocal technique in a few spots, which balance seamlessly with his usual gutteral razor-throated growl.

This is an easy early candidate for album of the year. Easy.

No more talk. Buy this shit.

"Set To Fail":

New shit out today from Lamb of God, God Forbid and the Gorilla Pimp himself, Project Pat. Buy it. Buy it. Buy it...Support American Metal and the best that Memphis has to offer. Seriously, Project Pat is fucking rad. Check out Mista Don't Play. That record is a classic.

Here's the old...Go get the new. S&U out...

Lamb of God- "11th Hour"
God Forbid- "Go Your Own Way"
Project Pat- "Chickenhead"

I don't think there's a better example than a swift kick in the nuts than Virginia's Lamb of God. These motherfuckers are intense. The music is precise to the point of perfection, yet that never gets in the way of the groove or emotion of the song. It's not robotic and soul-less like Joe Satriani or Steve Vai.

Plus, politics and metal have a nice way of meeting at the crossroads in this band. The more fucked our government is, the angrier Randy Blythe (vocals) gets...and who can blame him.

Without delving into politics of my own, here's Lamb of God doing what they do best...Wasting every last motherfucker in the room. Period.
