Bizzaro because I've seen other reactions with this band that hasn't gotten block. So the good thing is that it seems we're good to go. Glad you didn't think I was ignoring the requests :)

Lamb of God Laid to Rest // Composer Reaction //
WOW - (LOL) - I had done this a couple of months back and after the reload and relisten today I have to say - WHAT A SLAMM'N MASTERPIECE!! But.........Where is the one? Nah, nah, nah..... #AWWWRIGHT!
😆 I remember that same reaction when I first heard it back in the day. Pretty dang annoying and then IT HIT 😄
This is such a great song! I recommend any Pantera song!
I found the one!
@@CarolinaBassHunter yes yes yes!! FLOODS please!!
And or anything from FAR BEYOND DRIVEN
but please FLOODS!
One is a rumor here. ^_^
I'm 35 years old. I consider this band the slayer of my generation.
You are right sir!!!!
well said. agreed
Fucking nailed it with that call. They’re just a fucking monster of a band.
I honestly think they’re better.
@@nschott13 shhhhh someone might hear you!
Ashes of the wake is a fuckin killer album
Still to this day, since '05 is still a standard in my rotation lol.
The best!
One of my top five for sure
Def my top album by them. It’s the only 1 I can run to and keep pace on.
One of a few bands that make a great ‘run’ at things.. they’ve kinda dropped off for me the last couple albums, but Palaces, Ashes, Sacrament and Wrath is a pretty badass run on consecutive ridiculous albums where every song is just nuts
"SEE WHO GIVES A FUCK!" Has got to be my favorite pre-breakdown line in all of extreme metal
This album has some of the best sounding drums ever recorded.
I concur. Only reason I bought the album. Back then I didn't like screamo and growls. But lamb was just so fcking heavy and badass
It took me YEARS to love Randy. I loved everyone else though. Insanely talented guys. The drums hooked me instantly.
Hate he is out of the band
It's up there along with The Way of All Flesh
The production is stellar on Ashes, Sacrament and Wrath.. I gotta hear ‘Palaces’ remastered to see how it sounds cuz I love that album too, it’s the one that introduced me to LoG
Randy Blythe, the vocalist, has a great growl. He is very phonetic and annunciates really well
He is for sure one of the few screamers that you can fully understand. I think even people not used to this type of music could decode.
It’s even funnier considering he’s admitted it in interviews that he only started screaming as a complete joke and yet it eventually culminated into one of the most iconic metal bands of all time.
Randy is the king of screaming
Randy has the most range of any dirty vocalist I have ever heard.
Actually, His style screwed his vocals, so he didn't do it right afterall
Lamb of God saved my life. I was going in a major downward spiral trying to find the bottom of every bottle until I heard Walk With Me in Hell. Completely changed me and I've climbed out of the hole and made something of myself. Protip- read the lyrics and then about why the song was written. It spoke to me in the way it was written
Glad to hear it, same hear! 5 years this July \m/ keep it up
The power of music, great to hear that it gave you that boost you needed.
11th hour...
its a love song written for his wife. killer shit
It got me through OSUT a few years ago. Song is a fuckin banger.
Yes!!!!!! One of the best metal bands in recent history!!!
Fucking right. Never seen anything like them live.
The best metal band of their type I've ever heaed
Why only recent history? They're one of the best metal bands ever, period.
@@lancehowle2007 you've never seen anything like them? Too bad you missed PanterA brother.
@@obe0540 too bad indeed. Sadly I was much too young when they were touring. Still, half of the experience was Chris Adler being a tight machine. I don't think Vinnie ever held a candle to that style of playing.
Check out Hourglass. As the band says themselves "It's the song that doesn't stay the same." Meaning the whole song doesn't have 1 section that comes back throughout it.
I never realized that about “Hourglass.” In my opinion it’s one of the best metal songs of all time
Hell yeah, probably my favorite song by them.
Yeah, Hourglass is great. The riff from about 1:04 - 1:25 is one of my all-time favorites
Wow, Hourglass is one of my favourites from AOTW and I've never noticed.
Learning Hourglass on the guitar was one of the most satisfying experiences of my life, it's just SO much fun to play!
This entire album is their masterpiece
Nah I'd say Wrath is their masterpiece
@@voodoocustompickups2547 Ashes Of The Wake, Foi o álbum que deu a grande visibilidade deles e conheci por conta desse álbum, pra mim é o melhor
Sacrament. Cover to cover one of the best albums I've ever had the pleasure of listening to
Walk with me in hell is probably the most out of left field love song you could ever hear
It has to be descending for me.
Yuup
King Me just isn't a song I guess
@@gabrielraymond6778 king me is kinda more of a hate song
It’s about the 12 step program. Not love.
The groovy-ness of this drummer makes the band for me.
He left
Adlers a machine! Their new drummer is absolutely amazing too tho:)
Adler is not human
@@user-kx9it6ko6j he got removed
Yeah, Chris left before their latest album released, but as far as replacements go, Art is doing a solid job.
Lamb of God is one of my favorite bands ever! Walk with me in Hell, In Your Words, Grace, Broken Hands!
Grace is my morning alarm on my phone. If the music doesn’t wake me quick enough, my wife will!!
Such a great band, and such amazing bangers. Walk with me in hell is my all time favorite log song :) first log song I ever heard:)
agreed, LOG is one of my favorite bands ever. im going with Descending, Grace, Hourglass and Faded Line!! Love this band
Omerta!
Now you've got something to die for!!! Such a fun song to play on drums.
"The faded line" from this same album is the real killer
Burn!
When I worked overnights.. This is the album I fell asleep to in the morning. Although. "Now you got something to die for" woke me up a few times. Lol
What an album to fall asleep to 😂
I remember a few years ago when i was in the car with my parents, we went to see out friends so we were on the road going back home ans it was like 3am, i was SO TIRED that i fell asleep while listening with to their album Sacrament with my headphones
I must be doing something very wrong if I'm not using LoG as a sleep aid haha
I feel you 😁
It's very rhythmic so definitely could sleep to it. I've never tried sleeping to LoG but have to Fear Factory many times.
Randy Blythe has one of the best screams ever in metal
And following that, Tatiana Shmailyuk of Jinjer! Quite similar in technique since Lamb of God is one of her biggest influences
And probably one of the most recognizable as well
Just here to say King Me is so underrated
First time Randy actually sang! End that ending part? Theatrical, brother man
what i love about that band is that you fall in love with so many songs on so many different albums. This stretches over years and you understand the genius so many years later
Absolutely. I almost got this feeling of film noir/jazz when the guitars start out clean and randy is doing his croaky spoken word section. It's a sleeper track, for sure
I loooooove King Me!
It’s honestly one of my top 5, nay, top 3!LoG tracks. It is truly underrated.
This is the first metal song I ever heard , a very special song to me.
Dat first ever time hearing the drums 🤯🤯 my ears blowing up never felt so satisfying
My first metal song was Now You've Got Something To Die For
Please do Lamb of God - Blood of the Scribe! Hands down my favorite track from Ashes of the Wake.
Yeah, that's probably the one I'd pick as well. That or the title track. This one's meh for me.
Blood of the Scribe, dare I say.. Is my favorite Lamb of God song ever.
TOTALLY!! I wrote the same song in the comments. The song was written by Willie and Chris alone. It was a test to see how badass and how far they could push themselves in the studio. I love blood of the scribe! Gotta throw Ashes of the wake + remorse is for the dead. I believe those 2 songs are 1 song but cut because the CD was rushed by the record company.
@@jordanfrank3406 that song literally has all of Lamb of God's greatest musical elements. Randy's vocals range from his highest highs to lowest lows. I don't even need to go into the music... 🤯
Some of those Riffs in there are also super hard
OMERTA by LambOfGod next please!🔥🔥🔥🔥
thats a good one
A thousand times YES!
I struggle to understand what everyone loves about that song, personally. You have Blood of the Scribe and Ashes of the Wake on that album but everyone likes Omerta. smh
Omerta is one of the most boring log songs ever. But is still great lol
@@JoseRamirez-es8vx fuck yes it does!
I love that he focuses on the actual composition of the song rather than the "metal = bad" mindset
and he explains the composition in such an interesting way! I love it
Or the textbook older folk impression: "satanic = bad music"
A lot of people think metal is just noise, when in reality it has some very complex song structures and riffs. I dare say metal guitarists are also the best guitarists in the world.
@@grahamvandyke yeah, since prog is dead all the virtuosos are playing extreme metal right now
@@grahamvandyke Some of my best friends just flat out call it noise and won't listen to a second of it. It's frustrating, but I remember when I thought the same.
If you don't give metal a chance you'll never get it. Simple.
Lamb of God was one of the metal bands that I discovered when I first got into metal music over 20yrs ago when I was just a kid. You've now opened up a pandora's box of some of the greatest metal music that your ears will ever hear.
My thought when I read the title “ I hope this old man is ready” LOL
The drums are impeccable on this album, this album and the fury of our makers hand both had killer drums just perfection
😊
One of the first Lamb of God songs I ever heard and a seriously good one. This is not a huge band on my list, but I've always liked the ones I do hear. Thanks for getting this out to us! :D
same, first lamb of god song I heard too! my friend in high school got me to listen to this and I god hooked XD
Their song "Ruin" has the best breakdown.
Agree. That was my jam back in the day.
New Colossal Hate is real close lol
Contractor*
I was in the car earlier and Cake's "Never There" came on the radio and I forgot how fun a track that one is.
Definitely a suggestion for the future! It's not metal, but it was a pretty late 90s early 2000s hit, or well known.
Good recommendation, love that song -- any relation to Danny Mulcahy in KY?
Totally agree or short skirt and a long jacket
@@Straitjacket346 nah. All originally Chicago area. Family tree isn't too big... my brother and I are in the south. Otherwise most of the ones with the last name "Mulcahy" in my family are in the Chicago area or southeast Indiana.
Commissioning A Symphony In C is another glorious classic from them :)
Loved Cake back in the day.
The Faded Line on that album is one of the best songs ever written.
I think you would really love Beyond Creation - Earthborn Evolution
I really hope he does this one. Especially the bass on this track is killer
Love your reactions, commentary, how you don’t censor and are at least down to listen and evaluate, even if it may be not your type of music, can’t tell for sure if it is or isn’t, which is nice, cause means you don’t judge, on beliefs, but on talent and merit instead. Awesome to see.
Chris Adler and John Campbell were a rock solid rhythm section
Found the one... listen to blacken the cursed sun by Lamb. Incredible 🖤
Grace off of Wrath is a legendary song. It has all the beatdowns of their main catalog and features some beautiful guitar duo work as an intro. Whether you do a reaction or not, you're going to like the band even more for creating it when you hear it. The live renditions are extended in the opening in the best ways.
Been waiting for this one!! 🔥
We need a full album reaction for this... complete banger start to finish, especially the bonus track
My favorite Metal band of ALL-TIME!!!!! Give me more #awwwwright
DUUUDE!!! You have to do Another Nail for Your Coffin - Lamb of God. It was just recently remastered, it came out on a Japanese only release back in the day. The song is amazing for start to finish!
Seriously, I want the outro melody and solo played at my funeral. Lamb of God is my favorite Metal Band of today. Still new stuff awesome, 38 Indy.
One of my absolute fave LOG songs that most people have never even heard of bc of the only Japanese release. The groove riff at the end with the solos is fucking amazing
Omerta and Embers (featuring Chino from Deftones)
Oh, found the one of course!
When I saw the title I was almost upset that you were doing Laid to Rest but by the end of the video you helped me appreciate a song I'd heard a million times again. I just didn't think this lamb of god song would be much fun for a composer but I really enjoy your insight. Their song Reclamation is one of my all time favorites and has a unique composition with time signature changes, brutal riffs, ocean sounds and a panning guitar breakdown that will send your mind through a loop man. Love the work you're doing, hope your stuff stops getting blocked
Discovered Lamb of God through Guitar Hero II; thank you, Harmonix Studios! Incredible song. Incredible band.
Finally. LAMB OF GOD
You GOTTA check out Ghost Walking from these guys, any time I get any new speakers or headphones, I go straight to that track to test them out 😆
I found the one. Right here, the whole time.
Thanks, Old Man! Love ya!
Every single album LoG releases is a masterpiece. The style changes just enough to not get old, but not enough that you feel they've sold out or changed their sound too much. Amazingly talented musicians, fronted by an incredible vocalist, and some just plain fantastic lyricism.
One of the best metal albums of the last 20 years!!
Look at Gojira, they're on par. But yeah.
memento mori is one of their newer tracks and I enjoy it a lot.
This is awesome. I just found your channel yesterday and watched a TON of your videos, and now the next day, you review my favorite band! As a musician, its really awesome to see reactions from someone who understands what they are listening to. Thanks for the awesome reviews!
I found the one! Actually like with many people, this song was my intro to LOG, but when I first heard it as a 10 year old I didn't really recognize the complexity of the arrangement, I just knew it was and still is a killer song! So many songs to recommend from this band, they've consistently put out bangers for over 20 years now!
I'd love to hear your perspective on "King Me" and "Reclamation" in particular. They're two of their epic album closers, and hence have great atmospheres. "Overlord" has the rare, unique cleans from their vocalist, Randy Blythe. Lastly, "Walk with Me in Hell", "Memento Mori", and "Hourglass" are highlights from their regular songs.
PLEASE DO "BLOOD OF THE SCRIBE". ONE OF THEIR BEST THRASHY DRUM AND GUITAR SONGS. P L E A S E
Whoohoo going hard with this one! These guys were great!!
Dang, how did I miss this one?!?! Thanks for doing LoG!!
I love LOG. The vocalist is one of my favorites because of his enunciations. Clearly audible. Love their tones and rhythm. Even better live.
That first riff twist catches everyone off guard, it seems. It's a neat piece of writing!
Walk with me in hell! Has to be the next one you do! Glad you finally got to them. Undoubtedly one if the best metal bands that got big in the start of the 2000s
The solo in walk with me in hell absolutely rips your face off, in a good way ofc
It’s one of the songs that got me into the metal scene.
One of the tightest bands I've ever had the pleasure of seeing live these guys have metronomes for brains
Thanks again for helping me to understand the concept of "finding the one", which helped me to understand metal much better 🤟
Probably one of the best live bands ever, fkn awesome track 👌
Contractor by Lamb Of God !
Not a huge fan of the band but Contractor is an undeniable beast of a song that fuses elements few metal bands could pull off let alone crush...
That song is just stellar. Not sure how he will like it, but around the 2 min mark is just perfection. Saw a circle pit for that the first time I saw them live and uuugghhhhh do I miss shows
THEY ALLLL DIIIIIIEEE!!!!!!
Love these vids. Keep killing it man!
What a coincidence!
I just learned this song on guitar.
Literally 2 days ago.
It's amazing how you keep choosing songs which are the same ones I've played at one point or another.
Keep up the good work!!
Omerta, Now You've Got Something to Die For, Walk With me in Hell, all masterpieces. They have plenty more, and Ashes of the Wake (this album) is amazing all the way though.
If you're going to do any more Lamb of God I'd highly recommend their song "Embers" as it features the vocalist from Deftones (Chino Moreno) and the contrasting vocals between the two is definitely a beautiful experience IMO.
I found the one! I love that you give these bands a fair shake musically and technically even if it isn't generally your cup of joe. The breakdowns are so much more interesting and deep than most musicians will give in their reactions.
Thankfully seen them
Live at ontario place . The speakers they pulled out for them was intense and so glad I sat to watch the performance and really enjoy the show . Ashes of the wake could be listened to the whole way through easily .
This is Lamb of God's best album IMO. Every song is great
Even as the palaces burn🥺💕
Every single one.
Everyone in the comment section is saying "____ is the best song on this album!" And every one I read, I think, "yes, you are correct." EVERYONE'S CORRECT!
What's the best song off Ashes of the Wake!? Yes.
@@danielnelson4881 lol exactly. I guess if I had to pick one it would be "One Gun". That song pumps me up. Well, they all do lol. But yeah you're right
The Faded Line is their best song. Hope you can cover it Geebz!
I found the one! I love how I can tell you're really listening to the music and your analysis is really intricate and also charismatic and I am definitely watching more!
Love your channel, nice insights and good vibes
You’ll love “Grace” by Lamb of God
Best song
absolutely LOVE Grace. that entire 2nd verse is amazing.
Next Lamb of God songs have to be "Overlord" and "Memento Mori", really good!!
You'd be mixing drummers though. Chris is light-years better. Plus Art Cruz admittedly said he held back quite a bit, to keep the "lamb of god" sound. Next album we'll see what Art can really do.
I loved this album when it first came out. It's my soundtrack to 2004. I had to drive 20 hours for work, and only had this CD with me! :)
The arrangement is spectacular as is the production and boy...are they tight!!!!
Please do Elder! You'll love em.
Which track and what album to start?
@@Clearingthepathtoascend I think Reflections of a Floating World is probably the best starting album. The Falling Veil is probably the most immediately rewarding track. Staving Off Truth is a good demonstration of their dynamics and song structure.
@@soulstodeny05 interesting picks.
@@soulstodeny05 i would love if he did The End from Dead Roots
@@Clearingthepathtoascend it's hard to go wrong with Elder!
I think my deep cut pick (all time favorite Elder song) would be Release off their 2012 EP.
I found the one! 👇
Walk With Me In Hell
Set to Fail
R^edneck
edit: wow i had to post over 5 times to not have it get removed by YT automatically, finding out the song titles have blocked words...terrible
It's because of the derogative term for a southern working-class American lol
Hell
Lamb of God is masterclass level metal. It was this album that they really started paying attention to their sound engineering. Their first album still sounded good in a raw sense, but their 2nd album here and on, they worked on engineering and expanding their sound which makes them one of the best metal bands out there. Each new album felt like a level up from the previous one. And Chris Adler is one of my hero drummers. He self taught himself drums on a right handed kit even though he's left handed. He's a very fast, technical, and precise drummer. His brother is also lead guitarist which may explain their level of tightness in playing. The singer Randy Blythe, used to be a bad alcoholic, but once he sobered up, he really started honing his craft, and it shows. He was also dealing with PTSD after serving in Iraq at that time, so I don't judge him harshly for his drinking. I'm just glad he's in a better place for himself. I think he's a hugely underrated songwriter. His lyrics are really good. I highly recommend you give the song the album was named after, Ashes of the Wake, a listen. It's more of an instrumental with some spoken words, which actually says a lot in a few words, and shows how tight the guitars and drums are. Keep up the good work my good man. Mahalo!
It's such a shame that Chris is not there anymore... He was really driving the band to surpass itself album after album. Ashes of the wake, sacrament, wrath, resolution, Sturm und Drang, they all surpass themself and go in places they never touched before. With the last one I really sensed that Chris was not there and that they stagned. I really hope it's just cause they had to release an album quick and didn't wanted to go too deep cause of the new drummer so they stayed in known water. I feel like they just pick in their bank of riff, it's all sound the same except momento Mori. Like you can't say it's bad cause it's classic sound lamb of god that we love but you can't say it's great either...
Last time i saw them live, they kicked this song up a couple notches
There’s a pretty cool, old video of Jinjer covering this in a small club. I’d love to see them open for Lamb or God on a tour. That’d be badass.
Yes!!! Jinjer opening for LOG would be killer!! Jinjer will be in my town in Oct, meet and greet tix, like less than 150..I'm so in!
Ohhhhhhh hellll yea- never clicked so quick
My man out here w a bunch of bangers. Thanks for the upload
So cool to see your reaction on this masterpiece! Still one of the best metal albums from front to back 🤘
I would consider it more of a 12/8 than a 6/8, it sounds like a 4/4 with triplet feel to me! but hey you could feel it as two short bars of 6/8 two!
As always, love your videos
Just another request for The Smoke Of Many Fires, by Be'lakor. Aloha, duder
Oh yes. Be'lakor is tremendous.
Countless skies is totally killer too
BE'LAKOR IS ONE OF MY FAVS. THE DREAM AND WAKING
Oh man Be'lakor 😍
YESS
I've listened to this song drunk so many times. I've been sober for over four years now.
this man needs to listen to converge. Anything on Jane Doe album
If you want to do some Lamb of God i highly recomend going over Memento Mori, those who know it know why ;)
Other than that another great band that you might want to take a look at is Paradise Lost :)
Love what you're doing!
That album had such a great metal tone! I remember when this came out and i was a teenager, then my older drummer friend pointing out the drums too. I was green( i only listened to guitars) man... i still listen to this, it had such a cool mix
I found the one, Geebz! Laid to Rest is definitely one of those songs I learned from Lamb of God to learn how to hold down that 1 with all my might lol.
If you want to check out another song from the band, King Me is a wonderful song that made it into my own soundtrack of life after I had let myself and someone I loved down.
YES! Another amazing band I grew up listening to. This band is so talented and even to this day their sound is being replicated by tons of other bands.
I'd be interested to see your reaction to Relentless Mutation by Archspire. That entire band is amazing.
This is my all time favorite band! Also, I've always counted it 4/4 with a straight triplet groove.
1 and a 2 and a 3 and a 4 and a
the eighth note changes from being a triplet in 4 4, to a straight 8th in 3 4. That is cool!
Finding the One in this track feels like trying to throat punch a ghost...
RIGHT?
You need to go back to Protest the Hero by doing Clarity, the first somg off the album Volition. It's killer.
Lots of great picks on that album. Tilting Against Windmills, Without Prejudice, Skies -- all so good. Plus you have Chris Adler on drums. Interesting to see how he adapts his playing from LoG to PtH
Love the Fan made vid for Clarity
@@Lucmin Wait wait Chris Adler plays drums for protest the hero? Wtf! Did he for the song bloodmeat and stuff? Those are the only ones I ever listened to from protest the hero.
@@danielnelson4881 he was only their studio drummer for recording Volition
You just have to wait till the end, and I love the almost interruption and a funky face then video cut and the music goes on.
Another song off this album is 'BLOOD OF THE SCRIBE' the Drummer and one of the guitarist are Brothers. These two Chris (Drummer) and Willie (guitarists) wrote 'blood of the scribe' to test what they could do in the studio. MIND BLOWING! BTW Ashes of the wake was released in 2004 (almost positive on the year) check out songs on their other albums as well. A lot consider their very next album 'Sacrament' their best so far. Also Chris Adler was their Drummer up until this most recent album. He's made the cover of Modern Drummer many times, also played the huge modern Drummer festival. There's no better Drummer than Chris Adler in Lamb of god. Love EVERYTHING you do. Especially love what you give to the kids. Youre an honorable man and we all love you for!!!!
Would love to see a Cradle of Filth reaction
Listen to Prison Song by SOAD. Prefect example of your first point at the end of the song. 👍🏻
Lamb of God- Blacken the Cursed Sun from Sacrament Album
I found the one! So glad you finally did Lamb of God
