    I am surprised that people like this album so much. For me it is completely average, nothing particularly stands out. It is not a bad album either, but in my opinion, it is just... boring

    It had been 5 years at the time since Lamb of God had released a new album. New music was appreciated in 2020 because of the pandemic and this did not disappoint. The first song I heard from the album was Resurrection Man. Wow. Best song on the album. Some of these songs play it safe and are the weak links (Gears and Bloodshot Eyes), however, the album is notable for its introduction ofIt had been 5 years at the time since Lamb of God had released a new album.

His drumming is exceptional, especially on Resurrection Man!!! Notable songs: Memento Mori, Resurrection Man, Poison Dream, and On the Hook.… Expand

    Nothing new here. No real risks taken. Kinda same ole. Fortunately, LOG doesn't have to do anything special to impress me. For this band, a safe solid effort is still an amazing effort.

    Lamb of God doing what they do best, awesome grooves and Randy's vocals on songs like resurrection man are just brutal

    Great record, overall. Groovy, aggressive, heavy. There are a couple songs I didn't find very interesting, but only two of them. So, at the end of the day, I was entertained.

    Overall, Lamb of God is a solid outing featuring a handful of tracks of potency with some genuine disaffection behind them, which shows the group has plenty left to say ten records in.

    The exploration and craft put into Blythe’s lyrics, along with the stunning musicianship of each member, allows for an exhilarating work of pure heavy metal. This album isn’t just an awesome release from Lamb of God, but a perfect record to unite metalheads as one.

    Lamb Of God are not the band they once were. Those were the sounds of then. This is the now.
