Lamb of God is an American heavy metal band formed in 1990 in Richmond, Virginia. Lamb of God consists of vocalist Randy Blythe, guitarists Mark Morton and Willie Adler, bassist John Campbell, and drummer Chris Adler and is today one of the leaders of the New Wave of American Heavy Metal. Lamb of God's name originates from a title given to Jesus Christ. As the roll goes Jesus was a sacrificial lamb atoning for the sins of man as the term "Lamb of God" literally meaning "Jesus".
Since its formation, Lamb of God has released five studio albums, one live album, and three DVDs. The band's cumulative sales equal almost two million in the United States. In 2007 the band received a Grammy nomination for their 2006 album Sacrament. Sacrament is a stunning example of how diverse, articulate and pummeling metal can be. It's a record that emphasizes just how far the band members have come as players, writers and people and stands as a true testament of triumph over adversity. With Sacrament, Lamb of God has stoked the flames even higher than their previous works had blazed. The songs are bleak and dark, yet key ingredients of a ride that's as breathless, exhilarating and terrifying as an overdose. Lamb of God has toured with the Ozzfest twice and appeared at the Download and Gigantour festivals. “This band was started because no one out there was making the music that we wanted to hear,” singer Randy Blythe says. “So, we decided to make that music, and from that point it has just been a continuation of that philosophy. We had never changed anything we do to appeal to anyone, appease anyone or seek any sort of approval from anyone other than ourselves.”.
