LAMB OF GOD: New Song Available For Free Download

December 19, 2008

"Contractor", a new song from Richmond, Virgina metallers LAMB OF GOD, is available for free download at this location (fee sign-up required). The track comes off the band's forthcoming fifth album, "Wrath", which will be issued in North America by Epic on February 24, 2009. It will be the band's first release outside North America through Roadrunner Records.

"Wrath" was produced by Josh Wilbur and was recorded in studios in New York, Virginia, and New Hampshire.

LAMB OF GOD finished the touring cycle for the Grammy-nominated album "Sacrament" at the end of 2007. The two-year trek was documented in the gold-certified DVD "Walk with Me in Hell" and culminated with the band headlining arenas across the U.S. last December.

The band took the entirety of 2008 off the road to focus on the writing process for "Wrath".

"This album is going to surprise a lot of people," commented drummer Chris Adler. "Typically bands that get to where we are in our career begin to slack off, smell the roses and regurgitate. We chose a different path. No one wants to hear another band member hyping a new record. 'Wrath' needs no hype. We have topped ourselves and on February 24 you will feel it."

The first leg of LAMB OF GOD's "Wrath" world tour will start in Finland on February 6 and will include dates in the U.K., Australia, and Japan.
