On october 7th, LAMB OF GOD released their new album “Omens” via Nuclear Blast Records. To celebrate the release the band unveiled an official music video for “Ditch”, directed by Tom Flynn and Mike Watts.
Also available now, “LAMB OF GOD The Making Of: Omens”, a short film documenting the recording of their “Omens” album, which premiered on October 6th. The documentary is available to watch on-demand throughout the month of October at http://watch.lamb-of-god.com.
LAMB OF GOD comments: “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.”
Produced by long-time collaborator Josh Wilbur (KORN, MRGADETH), “Omens” is a vicious new testament for the Richmond, Virginia-based band, a furious entry in their beloved catalogue. “The world is crazy and keeps changing. ‘Omens’ is a reaction to the state of the world,” Blythe explains. “It’s a very pissed-off record.” He pauses for emphasis. “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. “The inner workings of the band have never been better,” explains guitarist Mark Morton. “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.”
