It's better than Contractor, but it's still not as good as I would have hoped. The chorus is pretty catchy/fun though.

Digging: Circle Takes The Square - As The Roots Undo

Pretty good but the drums sounded like ass or was that just the crappy player

It's decent but I still don't like the idea of Randy doing these clean parts. sounds like Mastodon when he does that.
@ slavelabor, chris adler's beard could bite your head off.

This is a joke that explains itself people.

Digging: Church of Misery - Houses of the Unholy

Randy's losing his voice. Sometimes his voice fits (I don't like his lower vocals, but they're probably the best bit - I used to be able to enjoy them a bit at least, but he sounds like he's parodying himself now), but it's mostly annoying. The intro was good, it's better than Contractor, but nothing special at all.

Digging: Steven Wilson - Insurgentes

Heard this a while back. Its nowhere near as venemous or dangerous as I remember the first two albums being. Instead its all sounding slightly forced.

"This is a joke that explains itself people."

Damn you beat me to it! ^^

That was kind of bad. It's missing the atmosphere of Sacrament.

Some parts sound very forced, the typical Lamb of God guitar riffs are getting quite stale.

Digging: Katatonia - Night Is The New Day

I prefer this to the other track posted a while ago, but not by much. I know exactly how the album is going to sound like now. I don't think I'll be buying this in a hurry.

Digging: Jesu - Silver

This has been hanging around on youtube for a weeks or so.
Better than Contractor but still poor.

I may well be giving this a miss. Probably going to leak soon, so I might give it a cursory listen.

Digging: Hooded Menace - Fulfill the Curse

You should add their new US/Canada tour dates with As I Lay Dying and Bodom to this article.

Digging: Between The Buried And Me - The Great Misdirect

song is sick

Digging: Silversun Pickups - Swoon

song is good, sounds like thrash metal though... they kinda sound like strapping young lad with the melodic harsh vocals like that

Digging: Megadeth - Endgame

I completely forgot about the clean "singing" on here. My god it's poopty.

its decent .. but nothing amazing

Digging: The Mars Volta - Octahedron

I really can't see the big deal with Lamb of God. Seems they just regurgitate the same turgid rubbish album after album.

Vagina metal band Lamb of God

This song sounds like some cheesy backwoods trailer metal. Terrible just like the other song that released

Digging: Steel Panther - Feel The Steel

*Yawn*

Digging: Manegarm - Nattvasen

It sounds alright, not the spunk of old LOG though. Hopefully the rest of the album will have a few surprises, I have faith in the Adler brothers.

^^^Idk how credible this kid is, A7X? Avenged is a disgrace to metal, lets appeal to 14 year old girls.....great avenue

THIS IS A MOTHAFUCKIN INVITAYYYSHUN

Digging: Emery - ...In Shallow Seas We Sail

SO GODDAMN EASY TO WRITE THIS

much better than contractor, but still incredibly average.

Digging: Gorod - Neurotripsicks

"Sounds rehashed. Same old LoG stuff etc."

And yet when a band decides to choose a new route, switch things up a bit, the responses are equally as negative.
"They sound different now. They aren't the same band they were when they started"

I don't think Lamb of God cares what these people think. They're still going to sell more records than Sacrament, make a bunch of money, and increase their fanbase.

For the topic, I liked the song. It was different, but it was cool to hear the "new" vocal style. Not my favorite song by them though.

eh... I'm not impressed.

The clean vocals are horrid like rancid cheese.

This album is set to fail... (giggle giggle)

Digging: Pavement - Wowee Zowee

Ugh I hate how slick their albums sound now (from Ashes to the upcoming). It sounds too processed, and too clean. I prefer the gritty sound of As The Palaces Burn over this pro-tools disaster.

i actually quite like this, the clean (well, let's be honest, they're far from CLEAN, they've just got a SLIGHT hint of melody) vocals are actually pretty awesome. whoever compared it to strapping young lad up there was spot on, and that can't be a bad thing. the only thing i don't like about this is the way the guitar parts are less angular and ridiculous than they used to be. but still, i'm looking forward to this.
