As part of their 2012 world tour, Virginia metallers LAMB OF GOD will film a fan-to-band documentary, which features inspiring stories from fans from around the world.

The band has now announced that they will shoot the documentary on the Gaza Strip.

The band is currently appealing to fans from the region to make their way down and share their story with the metal masses. The band released the following message via their website:

“…If you live near the Gaza Strip and listen to heavy metal music to escape your stressful life, then we are interested in hearing from you! You don’t have to be Lamb of God’s ‘biggest’ fan, but you should have a very inspiring life.”

Fans from all around the world have been invited to send in a 2,000 word or less letter, or a short, three-minute video with a description of their life and how Lamb Of God’s music helps them to cope with it. One fan will be chosen for each stop on their tour and filmed for the documentary.

Lamb Of God’s next stop is in Israel, where they will be searching for both males and females to appear in the documentary between May 27th – 31st. Those interested in participating are asked to contact griffinburkecasting@gmail.com

As previously announced, This summer, Lamb Of God and DETHKLOK will join forces for a 34-show North American tour kicking off on August 1st in Seattle, WA. The bands will shred their way through cities throughout in the US and Canada ending September 15th in San Francisco, CA.
