Lamb Of God’s groundbreaking album, Ashes Of The Wake, turns 20 this August, and to commemorate the pivotal release, an expanded 20th Anniversary Deluxe Edition featuring new mixes by Health, Justin K Broadrick (Godflesh/Jesu), and Kublai Khan TX and Malevolence, as well as demo and live versions of the album’s classic songs, arrives on August 30th via Epic Records and Legacy Recordings. You can now pre-order the upcoming release, here.

Originally released in 2004, Ashes Of The Wake is viewed as a cornerstone of modern metal, and features beloved songs such as “Laid To Rest”, “Now You’ve Got Something To Die For”, “Omerta”, and the blistering title track.
