September 2, 2022, 2 years ago
On October 7, Grammy-nominated metal titans, Lamb Of God, will release their new album, Omens, via Epic Records. The band have released the new video below, along with the following message:
"In February 2022, we entered Henson Studios in Los Angeles, CA to begin recording our 9th studio album, what would become Omens. We recorded this record the old-fashioned way... with five of us, in a room together, playing music. We filmed the entire process.
Beginning October 6th, we will be streaming The Making Of: Omens, a short film documenting the recording of our forthcoming album. The documentary will include four full song performances recorded in the live room at Henson Studios: 'Nevermore', 'Omens', 'Vanishing' and 'Gomorrah'.
Watch the The Making Of: Omens premiere live stream event on Thursday, October 6th at watch.lamb-of-god.com or anytime throughout the month of October.
All CD and vinyl copies of Omens will include a FREE access code to view the documentary (limited to US products only). Standalone live stream and video-on-demand tickets will go on-sale September 22nd. Pre-order the Omens CD or Vinyl from the bands official US & UK store and receive your access code before October 6th."
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.
