Lamb Of God Vinyl Records
A linchpin of the New Wave of American Heavy Metal movement with an uncompromising approach that garnered both respect and sales, Richmond, Virginia's Lamb of God started out using a more inauspicious name. Employing a versatile blend of metalcore, thrash, punk, sludge, and groove-laden death metal, the band issued an eponymous full-length outing under the moniker Burn the Priest before changing their name in 1999 to avoid being mistaken for a Satanic metal outfit. Lamb of God have released a string of high-profile studio albums and enjoyed tremendous commercial success with gold-selling outings like Ashes of the Wake and Sacrament. Between 2000 and 2022, the group carved out a notable swath of sonic real estate, selling millions of records and landing multiple Grammy nominations without ever compromising their sound.
