Also available now, LAMB OF GOD The Making Of: Omens, a short film documenting the recording of their “Omens” album, which premiered on October 6. The documentary is available to watch on-demand throughout the month of October here.
The band comment:
“In February 2022, we entered Henson Studios in Los Angeles, CA to begin recording our 9th studio album, what would become ‘Omens’. We recorded this record the old-fashioned way… with five of us, in a room together, playing music. We filmed the entire process.
The documentary will include four full song performances recorded in the live room at Henson Studios: ‘Nevermore‘, ‘Omens‘, ‘Vanishing‘ and ‘Gomorrah‘.”
“Omens” follows 2020’s self-titled No. 1 Hard Rock Album, saluted by the likes of Rolling Stone and NME. “Omens” is perhaps their angriest album yet. Produced by longtime collaborator Josh Wilbur (Korn, Megadeth), it is a vicious new testament for the Richmond, Virginia-based band, a furious entry in their beloved catalog. In Blythe’s words:
“The world is crazy and keeps changing. ‘Omens’ is a reaction to the state of the world. It’s a very pissed-off record. It is extremely pissed-off.”
The New Wave Of American Heavy Metal architects tracked “Omens” at Henson Recording Studios in Los Angeles, California, a location that birthed classics from The Doors, The Ramones, and Soundgarden, among others. Guitarist Mark Morton explains:
“The inner workings of the band have never been better. You can hear it in “Omens”. You can see it in our performances, and if you’re around us for five minutes, you can feel it.”
The “Omens” album is available on CD and Vinyl now at Lamb-Of-God.com, featuring several exclusive items, including colored vinyl, shirts, hoodies, box sets, and CDs with an alternate color cover.
