Lamb Of God’s Randy Blythe has shared a mini-documentary on his Instagram page showing his effort to help restore a piece of Ecuador’s rainforest. Blythe has taken the money he’s made from Cameo to help fund the project. 

Blythe says, “I made this short film as a thank you to all the folks who have paid me to sing them goofy happy birthday songs, wish their spouse happy anniversary, & sometimes viciously roast their friends. If you have a bought a @cameo from me, this is what I have spent your money on- if you get one in the future, this is what your money will go towards. Thanks for the support.”

On October 7, Grammy-nominated metal titans Lamb Of God will release their new album, Omens, via Epic Records.

Earlier today, the band shared a snippet of the song "Omens", which will be released as a single on July 28, via Twitter.

Omens is a furious entry in the Lamb Of God catalog, perhaps their angriest album yet. "The world is crazy and keeps changing. Omens is a reaction to the state of the world,” explains vocalist D. Randall Blythe. "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."

The Omens album pre-order is live now, boasting several exclusive items, including a signed colored vinyl variant, shirt, hoodie, and signed CDs with an alternate color cover. All physical CD and Vinyl releases will include a free access code to watch the livestream viewing of "The Making of Omens" documentary, which will premiere the week of album release.
