Lamb of God

Ok, I normally don't write definitions but I saw WAY too many people writing things on here that are the exact opposite of the truth. One dick wipe wrote:

"A generic, poor, completely unoriginal, commercial Nu metal/metalcore band.

Along with bands like Killswitch Engage, they take the concept of pinch harmonics and completely overuse them, diluting their effect.

Mainly listened to by your stereotypical "emo" as a way to look cool and harcore"

There are more things wrong with that than I can get in to, but heres a few.

1. They are not metalcore or nu metal. They are a 100% american death metal band with an absolutely unique sound stemming from their funky riffs. On the same token, metalcore and nu metal are about as far on either side of the spectrum of music as classical and rap so "Nu metal/metalcore" makes no sense whatsoever. P.O.D. and Linkin Park are nu metal, In Flames is metalcore.

2. No "stereotypical emo" listens to lamb of god, thats a giant oxymoron.

Now, getting into the real definition. Lamb of God is death metal band from VA who invented a sound all their own by combining the unbelievably heavy lyrics pumped through their screaming machine front man with fast paced unconventional guitar pieces/double bass/funky riffs and harsh, heavy breakdowns.

Their lyrics are some of the most outrageous you will hear from most bands with songs that have seemingly anti-god views (blacken the cursed sun)
Can we still be saved?
Hell, no!
Does your God hold a place for us?
Hell, no!
Is there time to repent?
Hell, no!
Will we rise from the dead?
Hell, no!
Can these sins even be forgiven?
Hell, no!
Is there still hope for us?
Hell, no!
Were we ever even alive?
Hell, no!
Is any of this even real?
Hell, no!

to songs that go into detail about assassinating a leader (one gun)
The eyes of the patriot fixed through the scope
The unknowing tyrant walks to the rope.

It's where murder is justice that martyrs are made
A one gun salute for the new independence day.
They'll hallow your name
They'll hallow your name for your sacrifice.

The album Ashes of the Wake is what really propelled them into stardom, winning various awards and spawning a live DVD entitled Killadelphia.

They took conventional metal (when I say conventional I am talking about thrash metal) and put a dark twist on it and shifted the main focus of the songs to the overall "power" rather than speed or technicality.

Bottom line: Great band. If you like really heavy music then listen to LOG, they will melt your face off.
LOG hater: "I hate Lamb of God, they are weaksuce."
LOG Fan 1: "You're a n00b, they are tEh u83R pwnage!!"
LOG Fan 2: "Yea, they're kind of awesome."
Passerby : "I CAN PLAY LAID TO REST ON GUITAR HERO!!"
LOG Fan 1+2: "YOU'RE A FAGGOT!!!"

When a midget get's a camel toe but because of their size it's called a lambs toe.
Bridget the midget had some tight ass pants on and she presented her lambs foot.

lamb showman

Lamb showman are the definition of dedication. They have felt the despair of “the gate” and know they don’t want that feeling again.they have experienced the gratification of the handshake or the champion slap and strive to feel that again and again! They can see the beauty in the perfect profile and the sheer power of a good drive. They would sort through a 1000 head all over the country just to find THE ONE. There is magic in their eyes and electricity in their step. While other people are playing video games they’re practicing and planning and exercising. They know if Mom has the camera and Dad has a worried look it’s show time! They know if it’s to be, it’s up to them. They know the real value of groovy racks, crisp loin edges and square butts. They know the best place to watch the grand drive is from the ring. They avoid corners and low spots at all costs. They can talk the talk and walk the walk and they won’t stop until the grab that banner! After God, their family, and their country their stock comes next. If you need them they’ll be in the barn!
That (girl/guy) is definitely a lamb showman!
