Kerrang took some time with Randy and Chris from Lamb Of God at their London show at Brixton Acadey last weekend, if you’re subscribed to it then I guess you already know. If not then you’re still in with a chance to check it out HERE
And seeing as I mentioned Lamb Of God’s Brixton Academy gig, I might as well post this awesome review of the show by Terry at Metal Hammer.
“…If you’ve been following the Metal Hammer Twitter on the road with Defenders Of The Faith, you’ll know Lamb Of God have been renamed Lamb Of Oh-my-fucking-God. It’s really, REALLY easy to say why. When you can launch out this many outrageously good tunes (Hourglass, Laid To Rest & Walk With Me In Hell as an opening three songs kind of makes the point) with the level of sheer power that LOG do, it’s truly jaw-dropping. The in-form band in world metal inside Brixton Academy and laying to waste to all who stand before them is the best feeling in the world. No band can get close to touching LOG right now and that’s the facts, Jack.
The group of metal-heads in front of us summarise the night perfectly during a ferocious sprint through ‘Contractor’. Absolutely plastered, the group (going absolutely fucking mental) all scream “guaran-fucking-teed!” straight into each others faces and follow it up by creasing up laughing and a round of high-fives. It’s for reasons like this that metal rules and that we’re delighted to put on a show as fookin’ stunning as tonight has been for everyone in attendance…”
