Lamb Of God

Biography

Lamb of God is a metal band from the US, one of the brightest representatives of so-called New Wave of American Heavy Metal. Initially the band was named Burn The Priest, but the musicians changed the name in 1998, after the release of their debut album. The story of Lamb of God began in 1990, when Chris Adler, Mark Morton, John Campbell and Randy Blythe met in Virginia Commonwealth University. The band Burn The Priest started to rehearse at Chris’ house. It is worth mentioning that the conditions were quite rough: there were no heating. However, in spite of all the difficulties, Burn the Priest created several records. In 1999 Willie Adler joined the group and later the musicians decided to change the name of their band. The reason was very simple: owners of the clubs, where the gigs took place, considered the name of the band to be evil, and refused to invite them to perform.
