I’ve always known of Lamb of God, seen them live at least twice if not more, always liked a few of their most popular songs. But I’ve never sat down and listened to an album. They never struck me as a band that’d have front to back interesting albums but I’ve heard some of their releases are great.

I have heard the first half of VII: Sturm Und Drang and totally loved it so I was surprised to see it not really among their more popular albums. I was thinking I’d start with that one anyway because personally I thought it sounded great.

Years ago before I sold my collection, I had this on CD with the original cover.

I just got it on vinyl, and they are going with the black cover with the band logo. I knew this before buying so it’s not a shock or anything. All the inside and back artwork is the same as the original….I’m sure this has been discussed here so forgive me, but what’s the reason for this almost censored like cover?

Any recommendations I mainly listen to stuff like slipknot and soad and got recommended this band and it seems pretty good any recommendations for music or albums

From Ghost Walking, what do you guys think it means. I always interpreted it as the protagonist being the one and always thought the lyric was really cool, but now i’m questioning.

This makes all their new, lazy bs skull designs look stupid in comparison. I miss when they had designs like this!!

I hope it's another secret color variant. It looks like they will be releasing another wave after these first editions. If they did an alt first release color variant, my guess it would be black and gold. Kinda like Alestorms deluxe version with black sea and gold sand splatter variant.

And there is a little breakdown kinda at the end. Can you help me find it? Would be appreciate no luck on google

I don’t know if it’s just me, but listening to “King Me” and “Memento Mori” back to back is such a trip. Randy’s deep voice has so much character and the music is so powerful and dynamic. They really take me somewhere else.

Lamb of God has been among my favorite bands my entire life. Not once in all of this time have I heard Omerta and genuinely enjoyed it. It’s BY FAR the worst on the album, and it just is kinda shit… help me like it, what do you see???

Found this with my old ticket collection. I'm fairly certain Randy signed my ticket but I can't remember. It looks like his from stuff online but there are variances.

This was with God Forbid, Children of Bodom and As I Lay Dying. I was hammered but I can recall most of the incredible show. Just not getting the signature.

Just wanted to give a big fuck you to willie, this song is beyond hard to play at that speed 😭 just spent an hr building up speed on the First riff only able to play it clean at 80% speed 90 was the absolute max but start to get sloppy. Please someone else try this song and tell me if im crazy

Title speaks for itself. Edit: it's a tribute band.

This was from back in I believe 2008 when Lamb of God came to Spokane Washington. I had won a meet and greet with a friend and we both brought our guitars to get signed. When we got there, Randy seemed quite disgruntled and had sat off on the edge of the stage with his hood up, not wanting to engage with the fans. So I figured I would just mingle with the rest of the band and start getting their signatures. Then Mark had walked up to Randy holding some medicine and I remember Randy saying that wasn’t what he wanted and Mark saying it was just the generic and I realized ‘oh damn, he’s just sick on a concert day. Poor guy.’ my friend and I and all the other fans that had won the meet and greet were hanging out, chatting with everyone else and I was a little starstruck and kind of lost in the moment. When everyone started taking pictures, Randy joined in. Eventually, we got our pictures and then it was time for the band to prep and us to leave. When we were putting our guitars back in the truck, we compared them briefly and I suddenly realized there was one fewer signatures on my guitar and my heart sank. There was no going back in to try to get his signature at this point. I was crushed at the time but it makes for a funny story now. I always figured one of these days I should write a letter to him and see if I could get that last signature 16 years later lol

It's one of my favorite tracks from them, yet it seems to me that there is no ACTUAL chorus in this song that repeats... No matter how many times I listen to it (trust me over 50) I always get this strange feeling I don't get while listening to their other bangers. It surely is a special one.

For me:

Opener: Walk with Me in Hell

Closer: King Me
