Here's the email I got (I'm in the LoG street team):
Prosthetic Records is proud to announce a deluxe reissuing of LAMB OF GOD's
influential and highly-lauded debut album, New American Gospel, on April 4,
2006.
The Press Release from Prosthetic Records reads as follows:
"Since the release of the record in 2000, the face of American metal has never
been the same. Never ones to sacrifice underground credentials and a bludgeoning
sound for commercial success, LAMB OF GOD instead brought success to the metal
underground, opening the doors for their contemporaries and inspiring a legion
of up-and-coming bands along the way. Quickly transforming from a group of
Richmond, Virginia metalheads into one of heavy metals most admired and
influential bands of the last decade, LAMB OF GOD is now a living testament to
the old motto a little hard work goes a long way, and New American Gospel was
only the beginning.
Remastered and repackaged with four bonus tracks, exclusive liner notes from the
band, and the video for the proven classic Black Label, alongside a re-imaging
facelift from longtime band collaborator Ken Adams, LAMB OF GOD's now famous
debut album finally gets the treatment it deserves in 2006. The music on New
American Gospel has quickly become both essential and classic metal material,
having already helped to revitalize and re-inspire a once stale American metal
scene and assist in usher in this decades New Wave of American Heavy Metal and
forever leaving its mark on the worldwide metal scene. With the bands brand of
death-influenced thrash metal with hardcore grooves, and a plethora of
devastating live shows through the bands diehard work ethic, LAMB OF GOD
continues to wave the flag for uncompromisingly heavy music, even half a decade
after the bands breakthrough album."
Scheduled to tour throughout the summer of 2006 in support of a new album, never
has there been a better time to unsheathe this long-deserved, updated take on a
new American metal classic to the hordes of heavy music fans that have, since
the release of New American Gospel half a decade ago, been inspired by the
revolutionary and scene-leading band LAMB OF GOD has become today.
