Lamb Of God - Into Oblivion - Album Review
Into Oblivion is being hailed as their most vital and cohesive work in over a decade. It’s a 45-minute "precision-engineered slab of groove-driven fury" that tackles the breakdown of the American social contract and the "fractured world" of 2026
Lamb of God: Biography (2026)

Formed in 1994 in the fertile underground of Richmond, Virginia, Lamb of God has evolved from the raw, punk-infused aggression of their early days as Burn the Priest into the undisputed titans of modern American heavy metal. For over three decades, the band has served as the gold standard for "Groove Metal," blending technical thrash precision with a relentless, blue-collar intensity that has earned them five Grammy nominations and over three million albums sold.
The core of the band—vocalist D. Randall Blythe, guitarists Mark Morton and Willie Adler, and bassist John Campbell—has remained one of the most stable and formidable units in the genre. Since the addition of drummer Art Cruz in 2019, the group has experienced a creative second wind, culminating in the 2026 release of their twelfth studio album, Into Oblivion.
Known for Blythe’s literate, socially-conscious lyricism and the "propeller-blade" riffage of Morton and Adler, Lamb of God continues to headline arenas and major festivals worldwide (Download, Wacken, Sonic Temple). Whether they are navigating the chaotic "attention economy" of the 2020s or paying homage to their DIY roots, Lamb of God remains a vital, "pissed off but intelligent" voice in a fractured world.

00:00:00.160 Into Oblivion by Metal Titans Lamb of
00:00:02.240 God, released just a week or two ago. It
00:00:05.600 is their 10th studio album. It's a
00:00:08.400 crusher. Let's talk all about it right
00:00:11.040 now.
00:00:16.160 So, Randy Bliss is an interesting cat.
00:00:19.039 Uh, we got introduced to this record
00:00:21.920 with him talking about how the old
00:00:24.400 standard lamb of God logo looked like a
00:00:27.840 falafel, you know, logo for a falafel
00:00:30.560 place.
00:00:31.439 >> And that was the kind of the intro into
00:00:33.760 into oblivion for me. And I'm like, you
00:00:36.320 changed the logo. And by the way, it's
00:00:38.640 the only thing I don't like about the
00:00:40.320 record. The logo sucks, but other than
00:00:42.879 that, this is a return to form. And
00:00:45.760 their old logo was way better than a
00:00:47.440 falafel restaurant.
00:00:48.800 >> Well, I have to pull it up now because I
00:00:50.480 have spent more time listening to the
00:00:54.079 album than looking at anything. Uh, so
00:00:57.680 what do we have? Oh man. Lamb of log.
00:01:00.239 Sure. Sure. That'll work. Lamb of
00:01:06.400 Oh my god, it's all come apart on me,
00:01:09.520 Derek.
00:01:11.040 Okay, so this is what he said. Well, our
00:01:13.360 logo, to be perfectly honest, needed
00:01:15.360 changing. It's the papyrus font, and we
00:01:19.119 we known 20 however many years ago that
00:01:22.479 we would wind up looking like a falafel
00:01:25.040 restaurant menu. We wouldn't have used
00:01:27.200 that. But that was before Papyrus font
00:01:30.000 was ubiquitous.
00:01:31.520 >> Sure,
00:01:33.439 >> I would have kept it. I I like the logo
00:01:36.000 as it is. I don't like change. Maybe
00:01:37.920 maybe that's my problem. Maybe that's
00:01:39.920 it. Maybe maybe you're just too old now
00:01:42.000 and you're you're set in your ways and
00:01:43.600 damn it, this is just too much for you
00:01:45.280 to take.
00:01:47.840 >> I don't hate I don't hate the new logo
00:01:49.439 as much as you do. That's okay. Uh art
00:01:52.320 is subjective, right?
00:01:54.159 >> Well, in the a AI age where, you know,
00:01:57.119 we basically created a mascot and taught
00:01:59.280 AI what gain is,
00:02:02.079 >> you could come up with a better font and
00:02:03.840 a better logo than what they came up
00:02:05.759 with. I'm not going to lie to you. you
00:02:07.439 know, it it could be done. Um, but that
00:02:10.000 being said, uh, Into Oblivion is again,
00:02:14.239 we've talked about this, a return to
00:02:16.480 form. Uh, I believe that this is the
00:02:18.720 best record they've done since 2009's
00:02:21.120 Wrath. Um, they started off really
00:02:24.879 strongly in 2000 with New American
00:02:27.520 Gospel, uh, As the Palacees Burn in 2003
00:02:30.720 and Ashes of the Wake 2004. And then the
00:02:33.440 high water mark for me is Sacrament in
00:02:36.160 2006 and then Wrath in 2009.
00:02:38.879 >> This to me is the album that should have
00:02:41.360 followed Wrath in 2009.
00:02:43.200 >> Well, there was a bit of a break, but
00:02:44.720 now you finally got it. It is a
00:02:46.959 >> and and that's not to say it's not and
00:02:49.120 that's not to say that the records in
00:02:50.640 between there are bad. It's just
00:02:52.879 something was missing and I'm and and
00:02:54.640 I'm sure we'll talk about that.
00:02:56.080 >> Yeah. Uh producer Josh Wilbur, longtime
00:02:58.720 collaborator of the band uh with the
00:03:00.480 band. Uh, it's a strong outing. It's
00:03:03.920 That's one of the cool things about
00:03:05.440 bands like Lamb of God. You know, we've
00:03:08.159 talked about bands that are heritage
00:03:10.080 bands. You know, they've been around
00:03:11.440 forever. Um, I could you pick a bad
00:03:15.760 album of Lamb of God. Is there a bad
00:03:18.879 Lamb of God record? I don't think so.
00:03:22.720 I would say that the the last record,
00:03:25.040 Omens, was probably the one record that
00:03:28.560 I kind of listened to it a couple times.
00:03:30.480 I was like, "It's okay, you know, and
00:03:32.400 and moved on from it."
00:03:34.080 >> But not to me, it was safe.
00:03:36.560 >> Yeah. Okay. Safe is fine. But I I mean,
00:03:38.879 like, would you say that they have have
00:03:40.879 put out an an album that is just
00:03:42.720 objectively bad? I based on my Lamb of
00:03:45.599 God listening experience, I wouldn't say
00:03:47.200 so.
00:03:47.920 >> No, I don't think so. And like I said,
00:03:49.519 Omen's didn't keep my attention. And
00:03:51.599 this was on the heels of Lamb of God's
00:03:53.200 self-titled album in 2020,
00:03:55.840 >> which I liked, but it was again, it was
00:03:58.879 a little bit less uh aggressive, less uh
00:04:02.480 grimy. And I love Momento Mory. I think
00:04:05.920 that song is great. Um, and the record
00:04:08.640 as a whole is a solid record, but Omens
00:04:11.599 came out and I I had high expectations
00:04:14.080 and it just kind of didn't keep my
00:04:16.478 attention. And again, I think it's
00:04:18.560 because it wasn't uh as gritty.
00:04:21.519 >> Uh it wasn't as emotional and there was
00:04:23.759 a lot more emotion in this record. And I
00:04:26.880 think a lot of it has to do with what
00:04:29.199 Randy is seeing in the world and his
00:04:30.960 viewpoint.
00:04:31.840 >> Yeah. Well, uh Josh Wilbur, the
00:04:33.520 producer, has been quoted as saying that
00:04:35.120 that was the aim on this record was to
00:04:37.440 get back to a grittier, nastier, more
00:04:40.639 not unfinished, but uh unpolished maybe
00:04:43.759 vibe. And
00:04:46.160 I would say they achieved it, but they
00:04:48.240 achieved it via a polished a polished,
00:04:54.080 well produced, well put together album.
00:04:55.840 I think the songs have some nice
00:04:57.840 structure to them. Uh the performances
00:05:00.160 are really good. Um the tones chosen are
00:05:03.840 great. Uh I think that this is an album
00:05:06.479 that that benefits from cool production
00:05:09.120 tricks. Not tricks, but use of cool
00:05:11.759 tools. Uh St. Catherine's Wheel. Uh, one
00:05:14.720 of the, uh, the sixth six sixth track on
00:05:16.960 the album, you know, it starts off, they
00:05:18.880 use a filter sweep on the entire track.
00:05:20.880 So, it it starts
00:05:23.120 layman's term, it kind of sounds like
00:05:24.240 it's in the distance and then sucks up
00:05:26.800 close and the song kicks in. I love
00:05:28.880 those kind of touches and tricks. And I
00:05:32.560 think that there was enough of those on
00:05:34.639 this album to make it sound like a
00:05:36.320 polished record, but it still has that,
00:05:38.960 you know, kind of drag your fingers
00:05:40.479 through the dirt, uh, gnarly, grittiness
00:05:43.120 to it. So, if the aim was to put out a
00:05:46.479 grittier sounding record, I would say
00:05:48.479 that they have achieved that goal.
00:05:50.479 >> Absolutely. And you know, it's hookie,
00:05:52.479 it's technical, um it's riff driven, uh
00:05:55.919 and it is kind of grubby, kind of dirty.
00:05:58.479 And Randy really snarls, but he also
00:06:00.880 flies on the song Althasio.
00:06:03.840 >> Yes,
00:06:04.160 >> he was absolutely incredible. I felt a
00:06:08.479 little bit of an Allison Chains vibe
00:06:10.560 there. Um but again, it was Lamb of God,
00:06:14.240 but you could see Allison Chains maybe
00:06:17.120 playing that song, you know, with Lane
00:06:18.960 Staley back in the day. So, there's a
00:06:21.199 new sound here. There's some new
00:06:22.720 elements to the band, but it's also
00:06:25.120 familiar. It's very sacrament-like, and
00:06:27.919 even when you first kick into the album
00:06:29.840 with Into Oblivion, it screams Walk with
00:06:33.039 Me in Hell. You know, just the whole
00:06:35.360 aura of it, the the the writing, it is a
00:06:38.720 a sister. Uh, and Walk with Me in Hell
00:06:41.280 is the brother uh in that sibling
00:06:43.280 rivalry. And it's a great track. It's a
00:06:45.440 great great introduction to this record.
00:06:47.600 >> Yeah, it's a it's a great opener. Uh, I
00:06:49.360 love some of the stuff they used some uh
00:06:51.120 synths, some synth strings that they
00:06:54.000 doubled with guitars uh in the intro.
00:06:56.160 They kind of pop in and out throughout
00:06:57.360 the song. Uh, so it's a it's a rich
00:07:00.479 album. There's a lot going on. It's not,
00:07:03.280 you know, I I think a lot of people
00:07:05.120 Well, and I would say this is different.
00:07:07.599 In the past, um, a metal record was one
00:07:11.440 or two distorted guitars, a bass player,
00:07:14.240 a drummer, and a singer. And that was
00:07:16.479 kind of the formula. And metal has
00:07:18.880 definitely evolved over the last 20ish
00:07:21.680 plus years to include a lot of textural
00:07:25.360 and production layers of of tracks like
00:07:30.000 those like they used in this opener. It
00:07:32.560 really fills things out and gives things
00:07:35.599 a more I don't want to say finished but
00:07:37.280 a more finished feel. It album metal
00:07:40.240 albums anymore don't sound thin like
00:07:42.400 they used to. not production-wise, but
00:07:44.720 just the instrumentation. You know, you
00:07:46.880 can look at at an album that was
00:07:48.639 recorded in the 80s and it may have had,
00:07:52.080 you know, 10 tracks, 10 individually,
00:07:54.400 you know, audio tracks, guitars, bases,
00:07:56.240 vocals, that sort of thing. Now, you can
00:07:57.919 look at modern productions and a song
00:08:00.800 might have 60 or 70 tracks in it. So
00:08:04.560 artists are becoming their I think
00:08:05.919 they're utilizing the tools that are
00:08:07.599 available now and they're coming up with
00:08:09.919 end results that are much thicker and
00:08:12.319 richer. And for me I'd like a big crazy
00:08:15.599 thick production sound like that. That's
00:08:18.000 awesome. It it makes me very happy. And
00:08:20.400 this album into oblivion starts off by
00:08:22.800 just like yep you're going to get a
00:08:24.160 whole bucketload of cool stuff to listen
00:08:25.759 to here.
00:08:26.639 >> Well, Parasocial Christ pure um just
00:08:29.840 frenetic violence uh just over 3
00:08:32.240 minutes. Uh, very reminiscent I thought
00:08:34.880 of, um, you know, the Urgency that was
00:08:37.440 on As Palace's Burn. Um, it just is a a
00:08:41.679 hard-hitting, frenetic,
00:08:44.240 um, killer track. And, uh, I I just,
00:08:47.920 >> again, this is I knew I was in for a
00:08:49.680 good ride, you know, with this record,
00:08:51.600 and it was feeling very familiar to me.
00:08:53.839 It felt like the older material, and and
00:08:56.399 I was at this point after listening to
00:08:58.480 two tracks was hooked. Uh, sepsis. Uh,
00:09:02.959 moving on to that. Uh, Randy sounds like
00:09:06.720 just a demonic preacher with the spoken
00:09:08.959 word at the beginning. I loved it.
00:09:11.360 >> Um, and then the track itself is a
00:09:14.080 little more industrial than we've heard
00:09:15.760 from them before, which was a nice
00:09:17.040 change of pace.
00:09:17.920 >> Yeah, the first single from the album.
00:09:19.920 Um, I love that it starts off with a
00:09:23.120 John Campbell thick, sludgy, gnarly bass
00:09:26.640 intro. The track has got a ton of weight
00:09:30.240 and it's it was a standout for me as
00:09:34.800 soon as I started listening to the full
00:09:36.640 album.
00:09:37.760 >> I just wish that I could talk like
00:09:39.760 Randy, but I can't and so I won't and I
00:09:42.800 am very sorry about that. Uh, The
00:09:44.880 Killing Floor is my favorite track on
00:09:47.680 the record. It has some groove. It is
00:09:50.880 just a badass song. Uh, I did find
00:09:55.200 myself because I do a majority of my
00:09:57.040 listening in the car. I was going 85 and
00:10:00.000 a 55 listening to this. And I like
00:10:02.560 Killing Floor and I almost killed
00:10:03.920 myself. It's a great track.
00:10:05.920 >> We got to slow you down there, buddy.
00:10:07.279 It's going to get you. Uh, yeah. I I I I
00:10:10.000 too am a fan of that. Very syncopated.
00:10:12.160 It's groove uh groove based. The riffs
00:10:14.560 are tasty throughout. Great song. Uh,
00:10:17.360 Elvasio, we talked about that one
00:10:19.040 earlier. sort of a uh you know it's got
00:10:21.440 a a very different feel. Not not
00:10:25.120 completely removed from the rest of the
00:10:26.880 record, but it's it is its own track
00:10:29.680 within the context of the album. Uh very
00:10:32.480 cool and it's a it's nice. It's a bit of
00:10:34.320 respit from the rest of the assault that
00:10:37.200 is this album. It's a very cool song.
00:10:39.519 It's a perfect perfect split of two
00:10:41.839 chapters and uh I thought that it was uh
00:10:45.120 it was a nice surprise and I thought
00:10:47.600 that the the band as a whole and Randy
00:10:49.920 really really hit a home run with that
00:10:52.079 track.
00:10:52.560 >> Well, you know, we bring this up every
00:10:54.079 so often uh the the question of not
00:10:56.560 whether as a fan your favorite band has
00:10:59.360 a right to evolve and change their style
00:11:02.399 a little bit. Um, and I our answer is
00:11:05.360 always yes, that bands do have the right
00:11:08.079 to evolve and change as they grow and
00:11:10.320 their musical tastes, you know, evolve
00:11:12.560 as well and that results in maybe a
00:11:15.519 product that you don't love as much as
00:11:17.279 you used to. Um, but I think that
00:11:20.640 Elvasio is a great example of the
00:11:24.079 evolution of this band. I mean, look,
00:11:26.000 they've been around a long time. None of
00:11:27.680 these guys are getting any younger.
00:11:29.600 Randy is 55 years old,
00:11:32.000 >> you know, and
00:11:33.279 >> which is not old by any measure.
00:11:35.839 >> No, but he he is not far behind the guys
00:11:39.200 in Metallica and, you know, again, Lamb
00:11:41.920 of God hasn't been around and as
00:11:43.920 prevalent as long as, you know, the big
00:11:45.839 four. Um, but the fact that, you know,
00:11:47.839 he's 55 years old would say that he he
00:11:50.560 kicked around for a little while trying
00:11:52.560 to find his way until Lamagon finally
00:11:55.279 hit. Uh, obviously in his 30s, you know,
00:11:58.320 and and so, well, maybe late 20s, but
00:12:00.959 but, you know, late 20s, early 30s. So,
00:12:02.880 it took him a little while. And some
00:12:04.640 bands, they hit when they're teens,
00:12:06.320 which is great for them. Um, but for
00:12:08.959 him, it took a little while. So, you
00:12:10.959 know, I hope they have another 20 years
00:12:12.800 in them. We'll see how long he can
00:12:14.399 scream the way he's screaming. You're
00:12:16.160 not wrong. Uh St. Katherine's Wheel, we
00:12:18.720 touched on that one a little bit
00:12:19.760 earlier. Uh that filtered intro, I
00:12:21.920 think, is just so slick. Great
00:12:23.600 production trick. I love the tasty uh
00:12:27.120 appropriate amount of effects that was
00:12:29.519 uh that were used on the guitars here.
00:12:31.600 They bring it in a little bit, tease you
00:12:33.120 with a little bit, and then they pull it
00:12:34.560 back. You know, for uh gear guys like me
00:12:38.160 who love toys, it's really easy when you
00:12:40.639 have a cool effects pedal or, you know,
00:12:43.600 a computer's worth of plugins at your
00:12:45.680 disposal where you can do all kinds of
00:12:47.760 wild stuff with audio. And one of the
00:12:50.720 problems, one of the pitfalls with all
00:12:52.240 those cool tools is it's really easy to
00:12:54.160 overdo it. And for me, uh all those
00:12:58.160 various effects are like seasonings in
00:13:00.240 the kitchen. you know, a little bit of
00:13:02.240 this, a little bit of that is a good
00:13:03.680 thing. But you you you dump a whole
00:13:05.279 container of name your seasoning on on a
00:13:08.240 steak, man, and it's just terrible. So,
00:13:10.880 uh, again, a great use of that here in
00:13:13.760 uh St. Catherine's Wheel. Interestingly,
00:13:16.639 not my favorite song on the record, but
00:13:18.480 I love the technical stuff that went
00:13:20.320 into that song. Well, let's move on to
00:13:22.720 Blunt Force Blues. Great track, great
00:13:26.240 opening riffs in this song. I love the
00:13:28.880 unified grooves between the drums and
00:13:30.480 guitars uh in the bass, you know, where
00:13:32.000 it all comes together and they're all
00:13:33.360 playing that one thing. It's it's
00:13:34.959 awesome.
00:13:35.680 >> I love the short triplet riff
00:13:37.600 transitions. More great Lamb of God song
00:13:40.560 crafting here.
00:13:41.680 >> Yeah, this is uh as hooky as it gets. It
00:13:44.160 definitely bridges the gap, you know,
00:13:45.680 from the early 2000s to now for Lamb of
00:13:48.399 God.
00:13:48.959 >> Next up, Bully. Awesome. Uh one of the
00:13:52.959 tracks for me that really illustrates
00:13:54.720 what a great mix this album has on it.
00:13:57.600 Um,
00:13:58.800 >> there's there's a lot of sections where,
00:14:01.760 you know, like the main guitar riff will
00:14:03.199 drop out and you'll just get to hear
00:14:04.480 some of the elements underneath and, you
00:14:06.720 know, Art Cruz will come in with a
00:14:08.079 killer drum fill leading back into a a
00:14:10.240 full band section. And when I heard
00:14:12.560 those and every time I hear them, you
00:14:14.880 can re you get to hear all those drum
00:14:17.360 tones really clearly and cleanly, uh,
00:14:20.480 not within the context of the entire
00:14:22.480 band. And so I hear that stuff and I go,
00:14:24.639 damn, man. you know, the work got put in
00:14:26.800 mixing this record and really crafting
00:14:29.120 great tones for all the instruments, not
00:14:31.120 just Arts Drums. Um, but uh, yeah, that
00:14:34.720 that is another one of the standouts on
00:14:36.560 the album for me, Bully. Just a great
00:14:38.639 great track.
00:14:39.760 >> It's a ripping track. And what I noticed
00:14:41.680 on it, and I meant to me mention this on
00:14:44.160 Sepsis as well, John Campbell's Revenge,
00:14:46.240 because there's been a lot of critique
00:14:48.240 that there's not a lot of bass on Lamb
00:14:50.639 of God records, not a lot of that low
00:14:52.639 end. Um, but I I heard it on Bully. It
00:14:55.360 definitely stood out on sepsis, which is
00:14:57.120 great for him because uh and it also
00:14:59.920 addresses a a a concern, a gripe or
00:15:03.760 whatever that fans have had about Lamb
00:15:05.760 of God not having enough enough bass.
00:15:08.000 >> Well, I mean, we can go back to, you
00:15:09.680 know, Justice for All with Metallica and
00:15:11.519 people complaining about not being being
00:15:13.120 able to hear the low end on some albums.
00:15:15.839 >> And a lot of that, I think, is is
00:15:17.440 because of how a lot of bass parts are
00:15:20.399 written, especially historically. not so
00:15:22.240 much anymore because so much time has
00:15:24.800 been put into allowing bass players to
00:15:27.199 craft really great bass tones as well.
00:15:30.639 Whereas in the past, they just didn't
00:15:32.959 have as much character. And there are
00:15:34.800 old school bass players that will smack
00:15:36.240 me down for saying that. But you know
00:15:38.320 the the tech that's out there now and I
00:15:40.480 I between the tech and different types
00:15:43.920 of bass players in the last 10 15 years
00:15:47.440 they're in 20 years for that matter
00:15:49.199 probably more care goes into those bass
00:15:52.079 tones and they tend to be pushed out
00:15:53.839 front a little bit. Now, I will also say
00:15:56.240 from a producers standpoint, often when
00:15:59.519 you have to mix bass in with, you know,
00:16:03.120 big wide double or quad track guitars
00:16:06.000 that are distorted, it can be tough to
00:16:09.680 make that bass stand out in a mix. And
00:16:11.920 some producers, one of my favorites,
00:16:13.519 Nollie, a bass player and guitar player
00:16:15.360 who worked with Periphery forever, like
00:16:17.680 his thing is he looks at the guitars and
00:16:20.399 the bass in kind of like a V form. Like
00:16:22.880 you've got your guitars up here and it
00:16:24.639 all kind of comes together with the bass
00:16:26.959 down at the bottom that makes the
00:16:28.320 foundation of this singular tone between
00:16:31.199 all those instruments.
00:16:33.440 But again on this John Campbell stands
00:16:36.320 out like he's out front which is really
00:16:38.320 cool.
00:16:38.959 >> Yeah, absolutely. And and again I
00:16:41.360 appreciated that about this record as
00:16:43.279 well is that the fact of the matter is
00:16:45.199 you can hear Mr. Campbell.
00:16:47.120 >> Yep. Moving on. a thousand years. Uh, a
00:16:50.880 grower track. Uh, did I hear a cowbell
00:16:53.519 in this track?
00:16:54.320 >> And Bobby, you are right. I am being
00:16:55.759 selfish. But the LAST TIME I CHECKED, WE
00:16:58.480 DON'T HAVE A WHOLE LOT OF SONGS THAT
00:17:00.079 feature the cowbell.
00:17:01.519 >> I got to have more cowbell, baby.
00:17:03.600 >> You did. Yeah. Yeah. And more fat John
00:17:07.359 Campbell bass.
00:17:08.319 >> More fat chugga riffs. And Mark Morton
00:17:11.599 uh was kind of twisty on that. It's just
00:17:14.480 again a nice change of pace but also a
00:17:17.919 return to form for Lamb of God. It's an
00:17:20.160 just a a lovely track. I loved it. And
00:17:24.079 for the fact of the matter is it's the
00:17:25.839 end of the album. And usually in the
00:17:28.240 past with Lamb of God Records, you're
00:17:30.400 starting to get into the filler
00:17:31.679 territory. This was not filler. Well,
00:17:35.120 the the closer devis destroy is anything
00:17:39.520 but filler to me. Um the the cinematic
00:17:42.960 intro to that song does not bely what's
00:17:45.440 coming for the rest of that song, which
00:17:47.919 I think is pretty cool. It's a thrash
00:17:49.760 punk crossover to me. Um and you know,
00:17:52.720 Randy ends the song by calling the world
00:17:54.799 worthless.
00:17:56.000 >> Um his screams to close out the the the
00:17:59.280 track and the record are just vicious.
00:18:02.400 He sounds absolutely amazing on this
00:18:04.400 track. Um it's not a happy ending. And I
00:18:07.039 know that you live in Florida where
00:18:08.400 there's all those massage parlors. Um,
00:18:11.919 yeah. Well, if if I don't know, this is
00:18:14.559 a a bloody happy ending. I'll tell you
00:18:17.360 that. And um how good how it's bizarre
00:18:20.720 how good Randy is at 55. He's screaming
00:18:24.000 with the best of them. And it was just
00:18:25.600 absolutely a great way to close out the
00:18:28.720 record.
00:18:29.360 >> Mhm. A strong record. Happy to listen to
00:18:32.240 it. Happy they keep cranking out good
00:18:34.000 stuff. And uh we'll we'll see what is to
00:18:37.200 come. I would expect that this
00:18:39.520 trajectory uh this evolution of Lamb of
00:18:42.480 God will continue, you know, into their
00:18:44.880 next album albums. Um and I look forward
00:18:47.600 to see what they put out next if this is
00:18:51.360 where they are today
00:18:53.039 >> with songs like, you know, Elvasio and
00:18:55.600 uh it's a great record. I'm real real
00:18:57.760 happy to get to listen to it.
00:18:59.360 >> It's abrasive in all the right ways. Um
00:19:01.919 it to me it's a legitimate, you know,
00:19:03.840 modern classic for Lamb of God. Um, by
00:19:06.880 far their best in over a decade and um,
00:19:10.480 all I would say is keep doing what
00:19:12.000 you're doing and go back to the old
00:19:13.200 logo.
00:19:16.000 >> I say keep the new logo.
00:19:17.840 >> Well, we're in a fight.
00:19:19.440 >> Yep. That's it. This [ __ ] podcast is
00:19:21.760 over.
00:19:22.880 >> Oh, but before we end before we end this
00:19:25.760 one, we've got a couple of cool
00:19:26.960 interviews coming up. Uh, we've got
00:19:28.960 Jacob Lily from Chamber. We're going to
00:19:30.799 be chatting with soon. We're also going
00:19:32.880 to be chatting with Margarita Monae from
00:19:34.400 Edge of Paradise pretty soon. So, we'll
00:19:36.480 have some fun interviews coming out as
00:19:38.559 well as uh you know, we'll just keep uh
00:19:40.720 listening to music and and giving each
00:19:42.720 other [ __ ] about it.
00:19:43.840 >> Yeah. Well, I'm going to give you [ __ ]
00:19:45.039 because your work schedule didn't allow
00:19:47.200 us to actually interview Corrosion of
00:19:48.799 Conformity. So, that's true.
00:19:50.240 >> It's your fault. I blame you.
00:19:51.679 >> I'm sorry. It is 100% my fault that we
00:19:54.240 do not get to chat with them this week.
00:19:56.240 So, my apologies.
00:19:58.720 >> Yeah. Well, you got to pay the bills,
00:20:00.320 right?
00:20:00.880 >> Yeah. Hey, anytime you want to start uh
00:20:03.039 you know sending me checks, I'll I'll
00:20:05.200 start cutting back the day job.
00:20:08.080 >> Yeah. Well, maybe we need to find
00:20:09.840 somebody that wants to actually sponsor
00:20:11.360 us. That way,
00:20:11.919 >> country time.
00:20:13.120 >> I'm still waiting on you sons of
00:20:14.640 [ __ ] It's been 3 years now. You guys
00:20:17.600 won't answer any of my calls.
00:20:19.280 >> You know why? They don't like you.
00:20:21.280 >> It's possible. Anything's possible.
00:20:23.840 Anything's likely.
00:20:24.960 >> Yeah.
00:20:25.280 >> So,
00:20:26.240 >> all right. Well, good [ __ ] Great album.
00:20:28.080 >> Lam of God, welcome back. And we will
00:20:29.919 see you on the next one.
