Asked my mom to buy this album for me at Target when I was younger, said it was a Christian Sunday School song album. LOL. Headbanging ensued. Thanks Mom.
I got detention at my Lutheran high school for screaming Lamb of God in my best Randy impression during afternoon announcements our school was playing a lamb of god Christian school 🤣😂
Yezzir it’s up there with Walk W/me in hell/redneck but of the 3 I’d take descending it so eerie all these years later love blasting it round October just a spooky song lol 😈
The producer motivating Randy is so awesome, he's truly into it. The part when he makes him run 2 times around the block is great. Walk With Me in Hell is such a badass song.
Haha, the part when Mark, John, Willie and Chris are talking about Descending, really analyzing the song and the band's sound in general...hard cut to Randy: "hello. We're at the annual Richmond, VA chili cook-off"
Lamb of god was really the 90s kid’s pantera. Every who enjoyed music liked/knew of lamb of god. They get talked about a lot but time will really be favourable to them. In 30 years people will still like lamb of god. Timeless masterpieces.
What do you mean they were the 90s kids pantera. Pantera was the 90s kids Pantera. Pantera best albums came out in the 90s. Cowboys fro hell was released in 1990 Far beyond Driven 94.
Oh man this video brings back memories. I was in college when I bought the "extended version" of the sacrament DVD that had this video as well. It's been a long time since I saw this.
Same here. I finished my second year at Univ of Az. LoG and mastodon blood mountain came out around the same time. Then they did Unholy Alliance tour that summer
Knowing where Randy was at in the making of this is awesome. I was addicted to both meth and heroin at the same time. Was a dark dark place man. Took me years to recover. I went from being a psycho bum to owning a house and being a god dam dad finally. Always knew this album was deep. Ever since it’s release I just sit, listen, and think dude. Love it. Raw, real, and metal as fuck.
Im so glad you came out of it.you are a true hero cos i know what's addiction like,im myself struggling with opiod,heroine addiction and LOG has always helped me whenever i felt sucidal.im hoping to get off it this year.plz pray for me brothers.
I'm still addicted to both of them...I feel like I can't play music without them... sometimes I wish I could stop but then I realize I can't stop some people will never be able to quit and I feel like I am one of those people
9:31 Just think, 4 of the songs on Sacrament, at one point in time, were called: "She Been Around", "Sluts are on Fire", "Creepy Weenie" and "Oaxacacaca"
When I was a kid I got to meet randy, my uncles band opened up for them and i got to set at the bar and talk to randy for an hour or so, it was so cool. He was so wasted he caught his hair on fire when he lit a cigarette, I'll never forget it and how he was so wasted but as soon as he hit the stage it was like he never had a single drink & how it all started as a joke when randy said he could scream metal & then we got the iconic Lamb of God.
I really love how real this documentary was kept, and yet how it ends with a very optimistic feeling. I felt I got a very authentic sense of the good and the bad of everyone involved. That feeling of creative conflict (which every good band goes through) was SO palpable, it was almost TOO real ( felt both the misery of not having your ideas be accepted AND the awkwardness of not liking ideas presented). I haven't really even listened to a lot of Lamb of God... but I made it all the way thru the doc. Great job, whoever put this together
Studio is always hard work, but its good to hear how people understand eachother and work with eachother. That's the difference between the little bois and the big bois. That's why when your honest and truthful with yourself it makes for great music...
I've recorded drums for multiple albums and EPs and yeah... it can definitely be tough getting everything done. Especially if you're paying out of pocket and don't have days and days of studio time to get everything super perfect. It's just nonstop take after take for hours and hours at a time. No time to rest, take a break, or really take in the whole process. It's still always worth it in the end, but it is definitely a grind. Luckily, modern technology has made it much easier to record yourself. I hate to admit it, but I program my drums these days because I can write and re-write until it's as good as it can be and the drum samples now sound every bit as good as a live recording and I can do it myself without spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars on studio time. I can't lie, I don't miss the stress of the studio. So long as you can play what you program, it's all good.
The producer Machine brought so much to this album imo. He brought out some incredible performances out of everyone with his enthusiasm and energy. Dude is an unsung hero and it was sick to see the behind the scenes and how this was made.
Facts. I loved that guys energy and you could see that it's his passion. There's a lot of good producers out there but there's a difference between being good at your job and being good/absolutely loving every second of your job.
It’s crazy to think how humble and hard working Chris Adler is cycling to work on a shitty bicycle without knowing he is part of the next big metal band and releasing one of the most iconic albums in years!🤘🏻
@@luckythiefmusic They were of course big at this stage but nowhere near what they became after this album. I think the song redneck alone would have won them thousands of extra fans🤘🏻
Not to mention all the other projects he’s done. He drummed on Protest the Hero’s album a few years ago and man.... that was no easy feat for sure. Super cool to hear him really be able to shine through on a technical album like that
Seems he was producing his favorite bands upcoming record. He was all in from the start lol, and having a blast doing it. It must be nice doing something you absolutely love and get paid to do it.
Agreed. Descending changed my views on this band. Prior I had them boxed into a very straight forward speed metal box. Descending is the song that bridges their old to their new
Lamb of god is fucking legacy!! Sacrament had, still and will surely have the same huge impact it did when I first discovered it back in middle school. What a blessing to have discovered the band with this record. I hope I'd have the chance to see these guys live.
Prayers sent 🙏 I almost died on the road playing many times. It saddens me to see this yet I lived it and had to quit playing in a band . The band I was last in was only local to where I live yet our following was incredible . My drinking was over the top , I remember going into the studio to record yet I was so fucked up I passed out and had to be taken to the hospital in an ambulance only to get put in a 72 hour psychological evaluation. After being released I walked 23 of 27 miles home , if it wasn’t for a man stopping to ask me if I needed help I would have never made it back . I pray for all who struggle with addiction. I am still struggling to this day .
Man this documentary takes me back to college. I was the only kid that would wear Lamb of God and Opeth t-shirts, being somewhat anti-social (read: not fitting into the culture). Growing up in a third world country it was forever a dream to see LoG live, but I was finally able to see them live here in the States couple of years ago (before Chris’ departure) along with Slipknot. \\m//
It’s crazy now because I’m a college student and I see a lot of people with metal band t shirts and stuff. Culture has definitely changed from early 2000’s-10’s to now
Sacrament got me through Iraq. Three days outside the wire at some shit hole COP. Bolt Thrower Those Once Loyal was also full blast in my relaxation period. Keep up the good music. Keep popping ear drums.
I've never been a Lamb Of God fan but this is incredible. I used to play in a band so I understand everything they are saying about the writing process..from wishing the vocalist was around more, to being the guitarist who brings a whole song to the band.. The respect that these guys have for eachother as musicians is genuinely inspiring.
Damn, this brought back memories, living in a shit household, not having proper Internet, buying the deluxe edition that comes with the making of DVD and replaying it at least once a week.
I love how they showed of the band member’s lives than just playing music. To me John Campbell is the saruman god of bass but to some other people he’s just some dude they play poker with
Soooooo happy they kept Descending. What a fuckin badass track. “This god that I worship… This demon I blame… Conspire as one Exactly the same ITS EXACTLY THE SAAAAME DESCEEEEENDING!!” Fuuuuuuck that’s the stuff
I remember my singer gave me ashes of the wake, saying "you've gotta listen to this drummer" which blew my fucking mind, but I was legitimately mesmerized by the guitars, I can't think of a better duo than Willie and mark. The stuff they did towards the end of aotw are still my favorite guitars riffs of all time.
I watched this a million times whilst I was away in the Navy when it first came out. What a record! I was obsessed with LOG for a while. I saw them in '04 or something nd it was good seeing them play Palaces stuff etc., but then when I saw them at Download 07 they blew me away with the new stuff from Sacrament. I knew all the tracks and they played as they always had, but they were at a new level and it was crazy.
Woww thats great ! that 2007 show is probably is the best of their history. I saw them this year here in my country Colombia the blew my mind. Randy presence is brutal. I wish i could saw them with Chris.
When Chris started to talk about a festivals headliner I really thought back to last September. Last September I went to see log, megadeth, hatebreed, and trivium. When Lamb of God went on stage I was so excited I was shaking. Mark & Willie are my guitar heroes and John is my favorite bass player. Randy had so much control of the crowd and he really captured everybody’s attention. It was an amazing show
This is one of my favorite documentaries of the making of an album. I’ve watched it multiple times and it’s always interesting hearing them work through varying opinions to make a better album
I remember watching this 8 or 9 years ago before I had ever really heard of Lamb Of God. This is what got me into Lamb of God and Sacrament is still my favorite album. So glad to be able to watch this again
No doubt. When I heard that fill in Ruin on the MTV2 Head bangers Ball CD...shit was mind blowing. Then I saw that wall of death in the Black Label video on public access tv. Then I heard 11th Hour on the Freddy vs. Jason sou soundtrack. Then these motherfuckers dropped Ashes Of The Wake. Then Killadelphia? Are you kidding me? Goddamn masters.
Watching this after watching The Making of Omens .. holy crap am I happy for Randy. He's slogged through a whole bunch of demons and come out the far side as a healthier, happier person. So glad the rest of the guys stuck by him. LoG is such a great band and 29 years in, still together, says a whole lot.
This film takes me back to my first apartment after I graduated high school. I watched this religiously because I was just in awe of their talent and the art of how they make an album.. This is the film that made me fall in love with and appreciate these men so much more. This album holds a very special place in my heart 🖤🤘☠💋
I love that you guys put this up on UA-cam. Being homeless right now I can't watch my favorite DVD. Now I can watch this anytime. You guys are awesome. Hope all is well
I was 17 and saw you and Bodom at the Rave in Chicago for Unholy Alliance. It was one of the best show experiences I have ever had, 17 years ago. These records, these sounds, these emotions shaped my metal youth, and here we are fucking 17 years later where my children can pick Randy's voice, and Lamb of God's sound out of all the metal we listen to. Thank you for the 20 years I've gotten to listen to.
Watching this makes me feel terrible for Chris. I know they have their differences but man was he the heart and soul of this band in so many ways. He loved this band and did so much for them. I love the dude. Art is awesome but I’d take Chris everyday of the week
I keep wondering how Chris can go from LOG where the drum line is foremost to a band where the drums are hidden behind the vocals and guitar. Chris was the band. I still love LOG but I worry for them.
Chris joined the band because his friended needed a drummer and he thought he could fill that spot so he went from never playing drums to recording his first album a year later. Drumming was his entire heart and soul.
@@elizabethfrancois7026 I also friend. It’s disappointing because Art is more accent then the heartbeat. I loved their New Album but always wonder what it could’ve been with the Kick ass drumming Chris would’ve done
@@numtoe5861 shoulder surgery I think, but it was that and he was getting tired of playing the same songs all the time. kinda get the vibe that he was a lot more focused on constantly improving the music but the others were just kinda playing the popular tunes and making more mainstream style music
It is crazy to see how laser focused Chris was during this time, then to see him bow out, or back out, or quit, what have you. I think the motorcycle accident put some things into perspective, change his priorities, and just saw LOG as too much a machine and not fun. People think being a rockstar is fun and games but it’s a difficult way of life. Grueling touring schedules, sacrificing a normal family life, a normal social life, etc. I remember Corey Taylor one time said something along the lines of “people think I get paid to be on stage. I would do that for free. I’m paid the 22 hours of the day that I am not on stage”.
@@EMBALMENGRAVE_OFFICIAL definitely my opinion! However, musically and vocally NAH! Dime was a legendary guitarist up there with EVH. Phil's vocals at the time were fucking epic and still hold up today. If Dime was still alive who knows what awesomeness he'd be creating.
52:58 look at marks expression, he had to fight hard for his creation and he's in awe for how it was turining out and coming together, thank you mark for fighting for this beautiful creation that I am still digging to and listening in 2024
Listening to Chris talk about 'I don't want to stray too far from speed metal' etc., seems like such a departure from what he's been saying about not wanting to 'paint by numbers' and stick to a formula. (Yes, I get that this was a long time ago.)
I was recording bass for a blues musician named Eli Cook at Sound of Music in Richmond VA while LoG was on thre third floor recording Sacrament. I remember Randy recording the chorus to Redneck in the vocal booth for a half hour straight saying the same lines over and over. He came down to the kitchen area and looked worn out. Randy was really fun to hang out with. We were showing each other stuff from Google earth on our laptops. The other guys were kind of standoff-ish. But in their defense, they were working and making records on their level is high pressure.
I watched this like 500 times back in the day , it's amazing how different a person Randy is these days! It's night and day , much like James Hetfield he has completely embraced sober living and just seem like different people!
I love descending. First log song I learnt. Still tricky Love you guys ! The end of another nail in the coffin is absolutely amazing.. always in awe listening to #lambofgod
Imagine Dave Mustaine listening to this and being like "Wow, that drummer could totally propel my riffs into the stratosphere!" You know for a fact that when you interviewed, you already HAD the gig. Dystopia is one of the best metal albums released in this decade.
By far the worst and hardest part about being in a working band is the gear. Moving it and setting it up. My idea of success was simply making enough money to pay someone else to move and set up my drum kit. We practiced in my basement. So playing a show meant packing up my drums and loading them into my car. Plus whatever other gear I had to move for the other guys because they left it at the house. Then get to the show. Unpack my drums. Set them up side stage. Move them to the stage for our set. Play our set. Move them back off the stage if we weren't headlining. Packing them up again. Loading them into my car. Drive home. And if I had to, unpack them back into my house. Then, THEN, I could sit down and relax. Destroyed my back over the years and probably the main reason I stopped being in a band. I love playing music. But I hate moving gear.
I remember Machine mentioning when Randy hit those Pitched Note Screams in Nail The Mix. Love that guys voice. Machine is a maniac too. You can learn a lot from both!!!

Randy on stage : 😡👿
Randy on barbeque race : 🤓👍
It's crazy how they hated Descending and called it not metal. I think it's one of the best songs on the album.
Descending was the third song I ABSOLUTELY fell in love with on this album behind Blacken the Cursed Sun, Beating on Deaths Door and then Descending.
Just shows you how fucked up self criticism is
@@Mohamed636 for sure. Wish I could stop doing it.
Definetly one of the best tracks. This was their peak album too, imo.
The whole section is pretty hilarious or sad.
Mark had a good song - everyone else was like hmmm.
It became such a killer tune.
Asked my mom to buy this album for me at Target when I was younger, said it was a Christian Sunday School song album. LOL. Headbanging ensued. Thanks Mom.
Rad move, you did what you had to do 🤙🏼🤘🏼
I got detention at my Lutheran high school for screaming Lamb of God in my best Randy impression during afternoon announcements our school was playing a lamb of god Christian school 🤣😂
My mom was pretty religious and actually had a CD of a christian band called lamb of god, what a disappointment that album was lol
I told my parents the same thing hahahaha
Hahaha awesome
Mad props to Mark for writing and introducing Descending, one of the best, if not the best song on the album.
I'd say walk with me in hell is the best
Yezzir it’s up there with Walk W/me in hell/redneck but of the 3 I’d take descending it so eerie all these years later love blasting it round October just a spooky song lol 😈
Blacken the Cursed Sun, for me
Agreed. The best imo
Nah, that goes to Blacken the Cursed Sun. I don't understand how everyone loves Descending. It's so boring.
I'm not a musician. I'm a screamer. -Randall Blythe

“Sometimes he’ll even argue Chris Adler down. Which is a hard thing to do. Good dude.”
Very very telling statement by Mr Blythe.
33:19-34:25 I had no choice but to comment again so that I can find this clip for years to come, and laugh.
I love how chris is walking around all humble about that Magazine cover, wearing a Megadeth hoodie, completely unaware of what the future holds.
I thought the same haha
and now he plays in a corny glam band that completely failed to find an audience. sad!
Oh man this video brings back memories. I was in college when I bought the "extended version" of the sacrament DVD that had this video as well. It's been a long time since I saw this.
Do you have the usa Edition? Is the dvd region 0?
Yeah it was a good era of metal, I was 16-17 at the time fully wowed out by all these bands. Now it's all just boring djent.
@@MatoccTube I eaa
Same - used to watch this all the time in 2009
Same here. I finished my second year at Univ of Az. LoG and mastodon blood mountain came out around the same time. Then they did Unholy Alliance tour that summer
This documentary is so kickass, they had to upload it twice lol
I was looking for this documentary the beginning of this year.... And now they relaunched it 🙈.... Those practice riffs of Mark omg.
Knowing where Randy was at in the making of this is awesome. I was addicted to both meth and heroin at the same time. Was a dark dark place man. Took me years to recover.

It's crazy to see how much uncertainty they had making such an ICONIC album. This is such an amazing study into the creative process
9:31 Just think, 4 of the songs on Sacrament, at one point in time, were called: "She Been Around", "Sluts are on Fire", "Creepy Weenie" and "Oaxacacaca"

man Randy was perma-pickled back then! His interviews from then to now are night and day! Happy for him!
no wonder he was so good, riding 10 miles to and from recording everyday will keep those legs strong AF
52:48 after building up how much of a maniac Randy is... When he comes in with the vocals here... Fucking CHILLS! amazing stuff

@@kevinadams968 the scrote under the skin
I watched this a million times whilst I was away in the Navy when it first came out. What a record! I was obsessed with LOG for a while. I saw them in '04 or something nd it was good seeing them play Palaces stuff etc., but then when I saw them at Download 07 they blew me away with the new stuff from Sacrament. I knew all the tracks and they played as they always had, but they were at a new level and it was crazy.
Woww thats great ! that 2007 show is probably is the best of their history. I saw them this year here in my country Colombia the blew my mind. Randy presence is brutal. I wish i could saw them with Chris.
When Chris started to talk about a festivals headliner I really thought back to last September. Last September I went to see log, megadeth, hatebreed, and trivium. When Lamb of God went on stage I was so excited I was shaking. Mark & Willie are my guitar heroes and John is my favorite bass player. Randy had so much control of the crowd and he really captured everybody’s attention. It was an amazing show
This is one of my favorite documentaries of the making of an album. I’ve watched it multiple times and it’s always interesting hearing them work through varying opinions to make a better album
44:37 Chris listening to Gojira - World to Come in his car. That must have been oven fresh at the time!
I remember watching this 8 or 9 years ago before I had ever really heard of Lamb Of God. This is what got me into Lamb of God and Sacrament is still my favorite album. So glad to be able to watch this again
Damn they’re so tight playing even in pre production. I miss Chris though
I love LOG so much, I can say they changed my life without exaggeration.
If only I could see you guys some day, maybe another life-changing experience
No doubt. When I heard that fill in Ruin on the MTV2 Head bangers Ball CD...shit was mind blowing. Then I saw that wall of death in the Black Label video on public access tv. Then I heard 11th Hour on the Freddy vs. Jason sou soundtrack. Then these motherfuckers dropped Ashes Of The Wake. Then Killadelphia? Are you kidding me?
Goddamn masters.
They are a fantastic band to see live. If you ever get the chance, jump on it. I cannot recommend it enough.
Saw them live for the first time 3 weeks ago. Amazing energy! They sounded great and kicked ass
Watching this after watching The Making of Omens .. holy crap am I happy for Randy. He's slogged through a whole bunch of demons and come out the far side as a healthier, happier person. So glad the rest of the guys stuck by him. LoG is such a great band and 29 years in, still together, says a whole lot.
I'm so glad you put this out on UA-cam. I haven't seen this since is was originally released
“It’s a really awesome day”
Says so much with so little
This film takes me back to my first apartment after I graduated high school. I watched this religiously because I was just in awe of their talent and the art of how they make an album.. This is the film that made me fall in love with and appreciate these men so much more. This album holds a very special place in my heart 🖤🤘☠💋
"He definitely has an outsider's view to metal." Referring to Machine.
A listener's view, in other words. Best thing, really.
I love that you guys put this up on UA-cam. Being homeless right now I can't watch my favorite DVD. Now I can watch this anytime. You guys are awesome. Hope all is well
Where are you living out of?
bro i hope you're doing ok🙏
I was 17 and saw you and Bodom at the Rave in Chicago for Unholy Alliance. It was one of the best show experiences I have ever had, 17 years ago. These records, these sounds, these emotions shaped my metal youth, and here we are fucking 17 years later where my children can pick Randy's voice, and Lamb of God's sound out of all the metal we listen to. Thank you for the 20 years I've gotten to listen to.
That shows you how old this is, Randy just pulled out a flip phone.
Doesn't feel like its been that long still
@@wipsypap man I feel old
And they are all rippin darts like mad. I don’t think many people smoke anymore either haha
And he didn’t have his dreads yet
Randy seems like the kind of dude who would have a flip phone today haha
I've watched this about 20 times back in the day. Great documentary.
Sacrament was the first LoG album i heard in 2018, 95% of time i listen to LoG now 😎
So glad Mark fought for descending!! It’s my no.1 played song on Spotify and unlikely to ever be topped 🤘
Watching this makes me feel terrible for Chris. I know they have their differences but man was he the heart and soul of this band in so many ways.
He loved this band and did so much for them. I love the dude. Art is awesome but I’d take Chris everyday of the week
LoL
I keep wondering how Chris can go from LOG where the drum line is foremost to a band where the drums are hidden behind the vocals and guitar. Chris was the band. I still love LOG but I worry for them.
Chris joined the band because his friended needed a drummer and he thought he could fill that spot so he went from never playing drums to recording his first album a year later.
Drumming was his entire heart and soul.
@@elizabethfrancois7026 I also friend. It’s disappointing because Art is more accent then the heartbeat. I loved their New Album but always wonder what it could’ve been with the Kick ass drumming Chris would’ve done
@@Blehkid I disagree 100% art is 10x the drummer.
55:53 The disappointed "I drink" had me in stitches
“Chris devotes the entirety of himself to this band” 😢
How awkward now! I still love this record tho
Yea and still got fired.
@@Nico082890 Why awkward though? He did back then, priorities change. Life happens.
@@numtoe5861 shoulder surgery I think, but it was that and he was getting tired of playing the same songs all the time. kinda get the vibe that he was a lot more focused on constantly improving the music but the others were just kinda playing the popular tunes and making more mainstream style music
It is crazy to see how laser focused Chris was during this time, then to see him bow out, or back out, or quit, what have you. I think the motorcycle accident put some things into perspective, change his priorities, and just saw LOG as too much a machine and not fun. People think being a rockstar is fun and games but it’s a difficult way of life. Grueling touring schedules, sacrificing a normal family life, a normal social life, etc. I remember Corey Taylor one time said something along the lines of “people think I get paid to be on stage. I would do that for free. I’m paid the 22 hours of the day that I am not on stage”.
Marks Playing is so dynamic
Best band ever and such an awesome album! This is a great piece of history right here
Pump the brakes there bud!I know you probably missed it but PANTERA was the greatest metal band ever.
@@tattooed1979 Damn rite brother CFH4L Stronger Than All Getcha Pull
@@tattooed1979 your opinion. But i believe log is better musicaly and vocally.
@@EMBALMENGRAVE_OFFICIAL definitely my opinion! However, musically and vocally NAH! Dime was a legendary guitarist up there with EVH. Phil's vocals at the time were fucking epic and still hold up today. If Dime was still alive who knows what awesomeness he'd be creating.
Adler is the GOAT of drumming. Not even close.
the song on 15:05 is a kind of groove, sad it never came out to the album
Been with lamb of god since as the palaces burn.
The machine absolutely made this record flawless
Descending is still one of my favorite metal songs period and it's in part because of how much space it gives to the vocals
52:58 look at marks expression, he had to fight hard for his creation and he's in awe for how it was turining out and coming together, thank you mark for fighting for this beautiful creation that I am still digging to and listening in 2024
One of my favorite bands of all time! Been jamming em since 2003! Seen em live 8 to 10 times, awesome live band!
Getting to see Lamb of God in denver might be one of the best experiences of my entire life.
I see them everytime they come to Colorado. Epic
This is still far and above my favorite album by them. So many memories from when this came out
This album came out right when I was really getting into metal in 8th grade. Good times
You gotta love lamb of god, these guys are so down to earth
Listening to Chris talk about 'I don't want to stray too far from speed metal' etc., seems like such a departure from what he's been saying about not wanting to 'paint by numbers' and stick to a formula. (Yes, I get that this was a long time ago.)
He always was the more "metal" in the band. So yes, is very weird when he say that in the explanation on why he leave/was fire from the band
They were insane, Descending is a badass song. One of the standouts on the record.
I was recording bass for a blues musician named Eli Cook at Sound of Music in Richmond VA while LoG was on thre third floor recording Sacrament. I remember Randy recording the chorus to Redneck in the vocal booth for a half hour straight saying the same lines over and over. He came down to the kitchen area and looked worn out. Randy was really fun to hang out with. We were showing each other stuff from Google earth on our laptops. The other guys were kind of standoff-ish. But in their defense, they were working and making records on their level is high pressure.
I was in 10 grade when this came out. Such great memories!
I watched this like 500 times back in the day , it's amazing how different a person Randy is these days! It's night and day , much like James Hetfield he has completely embraced sober living and just seem like different people!
Descending is my favorite LOG song. So glad that it made the record.
My first Lamb of God album. From the opening riff of Walk with me In Hell, I was hooked. 🤘🏻
Man how could Chris and Willie hear that opening riff from Descending and hate it? I could hear it immediately, it was special.
I always thought Descending was skippable. That intro riff sounds like a generic placeholder riff. It's too slow and simple.
Descending is one of my favourites on this album glad it stayed
My favorite album of LoG and Descending my number one from this album. Riffs and solos from this album are crushing.
I love descending. First log song I learnt. Still tricky
Love you guys ! The end of another nail in the coffin is absolutely amazing.. always in awe listening to #lambofgod
Imagine Dave Mustaine listening to this and being like "Wow, that drummer could totally propel my riffs into the stratosphere!" You know for a fact that when you interviewed, you already HAD the gig. Dystopia is one of the best metal albums released in this decade.
By far the worst and hardest part about being in a working band is the gear. Moving it and setting it up. My idea of success was simply making enough money to pay someone else to move and set up my drum kit. We practiced in my basement. So playing a show meant packing up my drums and loading them into my car. Plus whatever other gear I had to move for the other guys because they left it at the house. Then get to the show. Unpack my drums. Set them up side stage. Move them to the stage for our set. Play our set. Move them back off the stage if we weren't headlining. Packing them up again. Loading them into my car. Drive home. And if I had to, unpack them back into my house. Then, THEN, I could sit down and relax. Destroyed my back over the years and probably the main reason I stopped being in a band. I love playing music. But I hate moving gear.
I just seem lamb of god like 2 weeks ago in Detroit.. How can randy still sing so brutal every single night.. they say god helps singers.. 100% true 👍
Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
I remember Machine mentioning when Randy hit those Pitched Note Screams in Nail The Mix. Love that guys voice. Machine is a maniac too. You can learn a lot from both!!!
