Product Description

CD Description
Following up a successful appearance at Ozzfest 2004, prog-metal outfit Lamb of God released ASHES OF THE WAKE, its major-label debut. Wielding a sound that's crushingly heavy while still maintaining a righteous groove, LOG serves up in-your-face metal that's sure to please fans of Pantera and Slayer.
Frontman Randy Blythe howls with a voice reminiscent of Venom's Kronos, as he rants about finding salvation in vice ("The Faded Line") and organised crime's code of honour ("Omerta"). Fueled by the double-kick-drum ferocity of skin-basher Chris Adler, guitarists Mark Morton and Willie Adler lay down a two-pronged attack that falls somewhere between the pummeling assault of classic American thrash and the more melodic and orchestral complexity of European metal. Anyone doubting Adler and Morton's chops need listen no further than the gnarly instrumental title cut, which finds Lamb of God's axe-wielders forming a musical relay team with guest guitarists Alex Skolnick (Testament) and Chris Poland (Megadeth)amid interview sound-bites of soldiers serving in Iraq. ASHES OF THE WAKE finds Lamb of God at the forefront of a new wave of American metal.

5.0 out of 5 stars Oh Dear God, 11 Feb 2005
Imagine a bank robbery, and during this bank robbery many people die, there are many loud noises, and the bank robbers get away with everything. I don't know how but Lamb Of God's new album is the musical equivalent of this situation. This album is the kind of album you'd have stuck in your head while murdering, it's that evil. With swirling riffage, restlessly pounding drums and Randall Blythe's vocal constantly changing form spooky whispers, to enraging howls. This album is quite excesable for a thrash metal album it has 5 minute instrumentals ("Ashes Of The Wake"), it has the machine gun double foot pedalling ("The Faded Line") and it has the instantly cool lyrics of "See who gives a f**k" from the lead single ("Laid To Rest") if you have unwanted aggression and you wanted a album to share such emotions buy this now, if you want a album about love, and peace....look else where

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best album since God Hates Us all, 3 Sep 2004
Let me start off by saying that this is the best non-slayer record I've ever heard. Lamb of God are the future of metal and this record shows it. Lamb of God have definitely not softened up like most bands do on their 2nd or 3rd album. This album delivers brutality at a very technical level. It's full of insane drumming and hardcore vocals. Although Lamb of God have stayed true to their original formula this album is a major progression from their previous release "As the Palaces Burn" which was also an excellent album. If you like Slayer, Pantera, Machine Head and true thrash metal than buy this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Major Label Debut, 13 Sep 2004
After i bought this album. I got scared very scared. Once I bought this album i noticed a few things. The first the producer. A man that goes by the name of Machine. Didnt he produce Static X and One Minute Silence. Have LOG decided to do something a little different. Thrashy rappy blippy bloppy metal maybe. Then I noticed something that nearly made me have a heart attack. MAJOR label. Oh nooo has one of my favourite bands sucumbed to the Dollar. Only one way to find out. Put the CD in the stereo take a deep breath and press play. Sounds like LOG ow yes it is LOG. Its the same deal thrash for the new millenium tighter than a really really tight thing. Maybe the major labels gonna do this band some justice. Hopefully everyone will talk about this band like the way they talk about Chimiera and Killswitch Engage. Metal Is bigger, better and unashamably heavier then before. Raise those Muthaf***** Horns in the air!
