Richmond, VA based heavy metallers Lamb Of God are streaming another new song from their upcoming seventh full-length album, VII: Sturm Und Drang. Check out the track “Embers”, featuring Deftones’ Chino Moreno:

VII: Sturm Und Drang is out in North America on July 24th via Epic Records. Outside of North America, Nuclear Blast Entertainment will release VII: Sturm Und Drang. The video was directed by Jorge Torres-Torres.

Lamb Of God frontman Randy Blythe states: “This is a very, very dark, yet sonically highly varied, record."

VII: Sturm Und Drang tracklisting:

“Overlord”

“Delusion Pandemic”

"Erase This":

"Overlord" (video below) is what some may consider the most unique and versatile track on the record – a new play on the revered Lamb Of God sound. "Overlord" uniquely features clean vocals and lyrics penned by vocalist Randy Blythe, and the video itself features his own personal concept and treatment.

“For years I've wished that I could have a movie camera directly linked to my brain so that some of the ideas I see in my mind's eye could be translated into film for others to watch,” Blythe begins. “Although that is obviously an impossibility (and probably a good thing- I find many things amusing that might not be so funny to everyone else), the video for 'Overlord' is the next best thing for me. I came up with the idea and wrote the treatment for this video myself- to see Jorge (the director) take my concept, add his own touches, and use his technical know-how to translate my "mental script" into a suitably dark visual narrative is just an awesome, awesome experience for me. I wrote the song about the dangers of self-obsession in our distressingly myopic and increasingly entitled "me-now/now-me" culture; just like the couple in the video, many people can't seem to look past their own relatively small problems to see the bigger picture: the world is in serious trouble. Having a bad day at work, or a fight with your significant other, or getting a crappy haircut or table service does not in any way shape or form constitute an emergency. Sometimes things just don't work out the way we want them to- deal with it. People who only see their own problems eventually wind up alone because no one wants to hear their crap anymore- we all know someone like that, always whining and complaining about some inconsequential setback as if it were the apocalypse. This song is for those people. Oh yeah- if you're out and about, watching the video on your pocket hate machine (mobile phone), try not to wander into traffic. A little situational awareness goes a long way."
