Lamb Of God, Gig Review. Birmingham Arena, Birmingham.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

There were always so many bands that were knocking on the door of the Metal scene as the genre exploded, groups that encompassed the complexity of style and the openness of lyrical exploration. Whilst Britain and America had the monopoly for a generation, if we were to look at the time afresh, would fans struggle of the concept of the big four, where would bands from the rest of Europe, South America and beyond fit into this seemingly timeless conglomerate, would it not encompass a far broader base of Metal as Metallica seemed to take the avenue down and leaving the Thrash behind.

Lamb Of God, VII: Sturm Und Drang. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10

There’s a lot to be said for the way that Lamb of God go about their business. Two or three decades earlier they even would have arguably been placed in the exclusive grouping that held Anthrax, Metallica, Slayer and Megadeth as the American bombardment to the British Metal invasion that was aiming their mighty guns at world domination. However as the band’s latest album VII: Sturm Und Drang clearly shows, the New Wave of American Heavy Metal and their acolytes have made it their business to keep the flag flying on a genre that has lost out heavily to the resurgence of the European, and in particular the Scandinavian element, in recent years.

Lamb Of God, Resolution. Album Review.

Originally published by L.S. Media. January 28th 2012.

L.S. Media Rating * * * *

The new offering by Lamb of God won’t be to everybody’s taste. It won’t, for example, spend weeks at the top of the British charts. It won’t by any stretch of the imagination be nominated for any awards by fans of those who find the mass appeal of manufactured music and distorted view of the 21st Century version of celebrity exciting.

L.S. Media Rating *****

For some within the crowd at Download, it was plain to see on their faces that their thoughts were focused on Lamb of God on the Sunday as the band of weekend. Up against some incredible and pretty stiff opposition that’s a hell of a statement on their part, however they were excellent and worthy title fighters for the accolade.
