My dad recently saw them in Richmond and he was in an elevator in the parking garage where he parked his car and the elevator stopped and randy got in and my dad looked at him for a second and tried to keep cool but he just couldn't stop looking at randy. And I guess randy noticed because he just burst out laughing at my dad 😂
Us locals in RVA don't get starstruck. If Randy isn't touring he's most likely gonna be at one of the metal shows with his camera snapping pics. He's a normal staple here. Randy's one of the guys.
I hate them, my fucking Engineering tutor thought I was one of those guys, he's like you into lamb of god, im like "yeah" he's like "Whats your favourite album?" and Im like "Sacrament just mainly for Walk with me in hell and requiem" He was so fuckin Suprised
***** Megadeth didn't take their drummer, Mustaine is just using him. Which should be completely understandable. 1, Chris is a HUUUUUGE Megadeth fan so this is a dream come true for him. 2, Megadeth is fuckin legendary. They're one of THE BIGGEST bands on earth, bar none. When Mustaine asks you for something, you don't say no lol. Especially once you see the paycheck ;)
***** Their last album debuted at number 6 on the billboard 200 even though many people hated it... so imagine how many they'd sell if everyone loved it. I could see them getting a #1 record debut in the near future. Yes, despite the massive drop in album sales for musical acts worldwide thanks to the internet and piracy, Megadeth still sells a shit ton of records. They're one of the biggest metal/rock bands in the world, at the moment.
Yago Reck HAHA! Maybe that's why the drummer took the offer to play for Megadeth quicker than a New York minute because he's always dreamed to play with them! HAHAHA!
I met Randy in 2004 at ozzfest when he just got off stage and I was going to go to the bathroom and Randy was coming out of the beer garden with a beer in each hand and he did the old put the beer under his arm and shook my hand , he was off guard but he was cool about it, nice guy
I just saw lamb of god perform right before megadeth in tulsa and they literally blew the roof off the place. Fuckin amazing moshpits and Randy's energy just hyped me up even more. Great frontman and vocalist. Props to all the band members as well cuz they fuckin killed it. Megadeth could not live up to the energy lambofgod brought but it was always an honor seeing legends play live.
I had the privilege to meet the guys in LoG many years ago, and also rather recently. The first time I met them was on their first Ozzfest tour. John, Chris, Mark, and Willie were cool as hell and very chill, and laid back. Randy.........was a really, really big DICK. He was drunk as hell, and his bandmates eventually told him to go in the bus and "do something useful like passing out in the Fkng bus, and stop acting like an asshole!!!" The last time I met them, all the guys were really cool and chill, and Randy was especially down to earth and friendly.
Well, just one word: DRUGS. Because now that dude's sober, it seems that he's recovered at least some common sense. Like, I saw an article of him going nuts about people not wanting to use face masks when the pandemic started two years ago (you know, when people were MASSIVELY dying). That while others simply didn't give a fuck...
@@BlanchestarlightUwU I just did a basic google search about it and couldn't find anything, most of it said that Dave mustaine was anti mask however saying that randy was very pro mask, idk it was from 2021 so not the start but yeah
Even tho a mask ain't going to stop anyone from getting sick. The mask thing was useless and just more of a making people feel safer thing. The mask was proven to be useless tho at actually stopping you from getting sick. The holes in mask was to big to stop anything from coming through
Pro 4X When I listen to As The Palaces Burn or Ashes of the Wake. It makes me think of the Revolutionary War days. Randy's vocals reminds me of pirates sometimes on those albums. It takes you on a journey.
Right on man, a few friends and I are going too. Love LoG and Trivium, and In Flames shouldn’t be good too. Plus we got tickets on Groupon for $15 flat so can’t beat that for such a solid line up. Enjoy
Megadeth "FUCK NO" Literally saw Lamb of God the other night for the first time live. They played before Megadeth, and I left shortly after Megadeth started. They could not follow through after Lamb of God kicked my god damn face off.
I went to megadeth tonight in Omaha April 26th 2022. And my God lamb of god fucking JAMS!!!! I still loved seeing megadeth but I was super impressed with LoG
Didn’t murder anyone. Security Guard didn’t do his job. Randy had to opportunity to come back to America and not get charged but he went back there and possibly go to jail.
As a punk rocker I can vouche that a lot of punks are dumbass idiots, I can vouche a very high number of them are probably posers who don't have any idea what they're actually talking about and won't be punk for very long, and some are actually legit mentally ill. But I can also vouche that there is also a decent percentage of punk rockers that are very intelligent, very well spoken individuals. You just need to get to know them, as most punks have social issues and rough exteriors.
I met him at a meet & greet before he did a show in Connecticut. Completely chill, down to earth guy and not pretentious in the slightest. Ever since he got sober he really mellowed out.
@M N Source? Bc I'm pretty sure Randy's roughest time in the group was between Ashes and Sacrament (The Killadelphia dvd and the Sacrament 'making of' bonus disc detail it fairly well), but ever since then he's toned down his alcohol intake, and his relationship with the other 4 dudes has improved a ton.
Read Randy’s book about his ordeal and imprisonment: Dark Days. It sucks what they did to him but he stood up and trudged through it like a champ. RIP Dave Brockie.
I asked Randy why they changed their name, right after they did. He said because they were having a hard time booking shows down south. Used to see them all the time in Philly. They played my boys garage here in Delaware. Great band! Great guys
Props for randy staying heavily in touch with his punk rock roots. I myself don’t really like punk but it’s really important to remember where you come from in musical terms 🤘
As a punk rocker, Lamb of god has always been one of my favorite metal bands because of the nature of their songs, and it makes sense cause Randy was/is a punk. P.S. Many punk rockers, myself included, do like a decent amount of metal (usually thrash metal, though, these days it seems like black metal is one a lot of 'em like, but whateva) and every punk always has atleast one metal band that is near and dear in their heart. We just obviously prefer punk music and to a greater extent like the lifestyle and culture. A decent amount of punk bands have obvious influnces from metal bands, and a lot of really good punk bands have said metal influences. Anyway, don't really know where this comment is coming from or going to but figured I'd still say something lolz. Have a great day.
I am 16 years old. and I have been listening to Lamb of God since 6 or 8 years old. my Father always played them so.i just kinda fell into the genre, so I guess you could say, they were my gateway band.
He got some whack ass surgery done on his vocal chords.... One of my friends back in highschool had a d.v.d about l.o.g and there was a segment where they showed/talked about the surgery he had done. It was something interesting.
my brother was deployed in iraq and he was telling me during "The Surge" they were issuing humvees with speakers and metal CDs. he said one of the craziest scenes he ever saw was Marines rolling across the Euphrates blasting "now you've got something to die for" mid fire fight
@@dixirose111 the way he explained it to me it was more of a psy-ops thing, must have been terrifying to hear american death metal as some poor goat herd whos never left his area. Most hadnt heard music like that before and some even ran. Plus it doesnt hurt to improve morale with some good tunes
Read Randy's book. He's an alcoholic and at the time that was probably true. I totally understand Randy's response. He wasn't peeved, he smiled because he knew how his band mate/brother felt at the time, because of his alcoholism.
I was mildly inrigued when my friend showed me New American Gospel in high school, but I wasn't really hooked until I later saw the video for Ruin on headbangers ball and then that same month heard 11th hour on the Freddy Vs. Jason soundtrack. That's when I became so hooked on what seemed like a genius style that I had to get As The Palaces Burn. That album, start to finish, is one of my top 3 to this day. Ashes Of The Wake was my soundtrack while I was joining the Army, which probably reveals my compartmentaling mind a bit since I agreed with Randy's views on principle, but was still volunteering to join the Iraq war... on principle. I bought the Burn The Priest album at an FYE with a sticker that said "File under 'Lamb Of God'," and only liked one song. I bought NAG around the same time and loved the structure of one song, but couldn't stand the coffee can drums and Randy's unintelligible and high pitched vocals on most of the songs. Palaces and Ashes are LOG to me. I don't dislike their new stuff, it's just not as emotionally relevant to me because of when, how, and why I found and loved those albums the way that I did and still do. And since I own those albums, I can enjoy them whenever I want without demanding that the band release new music that sounds like their old stuff. Because they have their end of what they do, and I have our end of what they do. I'm lucky enough not to have to live it, so I can stay happily stuck in the past. They can't, or else they'd become another Megadeth. 🤷🏼♂️
Dude I'm literally what you described. I always liked lamb of god because their lyrics were like a punk bands lyrics. They were actually the first concert I ever went to, was 14.
I wanna ask Randy why if he loves punk rock and says hes not a metalhead, what makes him do the awesome metal vocals he does. Im very greatful, just curious.
As a punk rocker I can vouche that a lot punks like metal also, we just prefer punk music, but also the punk lifestyle, and culture. Lots of modern punk bands have very obvious metal influences in their music. So as a punk myself, I can see how this could happen.
Man, I love Lamb of God... I own a Willie warbird!!!! Can't play like Willie and Mark because those guys are just so awesome. Thanks to all of the band members for great music!
I don't know what it is about Randy but I've always been strangely fascinated by him? His appearance, voice, mannerisms. So strange, yet so interesting to me. Quite the character 😂
Me too, 'sounds of the underground 'brought gwar & L o G (& opeth, unearth, devildriver, chamaira,strapping young lad,terror,every time I die, ,) to my town.a total kick ass show, even though it was in a crappy stadium for acoustics...
Chino from the Deftones isnt a metal head either. They didnt grow up listening to metal and the other guys in the band brought the metal influence/sound.
***** Yeah, Jonathan Davis has said numerous times the same, but, I don't know. Maybe it's just me, but if anything defines person a metal head, it's that he writes metal and plays it to the audience. It's like a person who plays basketball in a professional team says "No, I'm not a basketball player, I didn't grew up watching that sport".
Ot what he jamms to. Its what he does tho. Like aaron from gemini syndrome the vocalist jamms to tech nine. Its just what u jam too in thay case. He is metal man tho
"I was an unseasoned singer" ... says one of the most incredible voices in metal of all time. Love that you guys changed the name. When someone suggests a metal band to me called "we bathe in corpses" or "bloodbath" or "satan's d*ck" I don't even want to listen to them. It's really annoying and stereotypical. Most of the real good bands have an a-typical thought out name: Lamb of God, Opeth, Periphery, Soilwork, Slipknot, Nevermore, Meshuggah, Architects... to name a few. I love how if you compare interviews of artists in metal with artists in current pop-culture. Everyone is always frowning at me for listening to Lamb of God, and then I pop up the lyrics of Embers versus the lyrics of any fucking Justin Bieber or Ariana Grande song. But even in the interview: the metal guys are much more thoughtful and wise, albeit rough around the edges. I prefer deeper meaning in music and most people laugh at me when I say metal provides that. Give me Lamb of God over any pop song ANY day.
I drank a couple beers with him and a buddy of his in 2004. At Pikes Place market in Seattle. We chilled for like an hour and he was just like a normal dude, was funny and it was just a cool experience. His buddy even came up to me at the show that night and was was just shootin' the shit again... Good times man!
He says people can't have been fans since 7 years old... I'm 38, so I was a teen when they were burn the priest, however; I've been a metalhead since I was exactly 7. My parents listened to hard rock and early metal, and my 16 year old neighbor introduced me to underground metal with their permission in 1988, when I was exactly 7. He'd give me dubs of all his newly acquired cassettes, and I was listening to stuff from Europe, and the Florida death metal scene. Randy highly underestimates the ability of children. Sure, 90% of them are probably full of shit, but that still leaves 100 in every thousand telling the truth.
Not to mention anyone who's parents were listening to them when they may have been 7. And he comments about being from a local scene... Yeah well guys like me who grew up in the days of tape trading were hearing local bands from all over the world. Whats his point? I heard the Burn the Priest release here in Vancouver... When you're into underground metal you search these things out, and end up in world wide trading lanes. People still do it today, but the internet made it far easier.
Brother i love your channel where every rockstars comes and talk to you. but actually some rockers speak too quickly and their voice is damn bold so many fans don't understand mostly those who's national language is not English so We need subtitles in your every video . Thanks keep loving 💕🤘
He looks so old but young at the same time
He's 44, so that's about right.

“Megadeth”
“No, Fuck no”
Lamb of god announces North American tour with Megadeth
Bahaha dude instantly thought same
same
So randy is more like hardcore than heavy metal
Was literally about to comment this. Lmao I do think he likes megadeth but they did not influence him.
Ppp
"As the Palaces Burn is a reference to like... Stuff burning."
Bahahahahaha
+Jaypee Muldoe no joke i literally saw this right before he said it lol

holy shit man! the same happened to me xD
yeah,, like palaces...

And I guess randy noticed because he just burst out laughing at my dad 😂
Us locals in RVA don't get starstruck. If Randy isn't touring he's most likely gonna be at one of the metal shows with his camera snapping pics. He's a normal staple here. Randy's one of the guys.
That’s cool
Fuck, he makes us in RVA proud. I used to run into him at the 711 downtown. Super cool guy. Miss him and Brokie. They still do the GWARbq here.
Damn right Deathbringerrr
According to randy "No he didnt"
Megadeth "No! Fuck no". lmaoooooooooooooo
And they're touring with them now
@@Legolion17 I saw them in '06 at Megadeth's Gingantour with Opeth, Arch Enemy, etc.
I’m seeing them this summer hopefully
Makes me love Randy even more. Plus, he loves Bad Brains!
lol theyre literally performing together next week
Dear Mr. Blythe & Gruhamed
I fixed the Megadeth fiasco.
way to go
@@avivoren1132 lol
Whenever I wear a Lamb of God shirt in public, I get 40% "Hey I listen to them too!" and 60% "So what church do you go to?"
Nikko Nobleza stop fucking lying. so obvious.
Nikko Nobleza no you don't
there are people who where Lamb of God shirts and has no damn idea who they are
I hate them, my fucking Engineering tutor thought I was one of those guys, he's like you into lamb of god, im like "yeah" he's like "Whats your favourite album?" and Im like "Sacrament just mainly for Walk with me in hell and requiem" He was so fuckin Suprised
I get 100% ewww I hate that screamo garbage
2:00 = "No, no Megadeth. I'm not listening to that stuff", "but people keep on putting Megadeth. No, no, no" LOOOL
Yago Reck I bet Dave Mustaine put that on their Wikipedia page.
***** Megadeth didn't take their drummer, Mustaine is just using him. Which should be completely understandable. 1, Chris is a HUUUUUGE Megadeth fan so this is a dream come true for him. 2, Megadeth is fuckin legendary.

thanethagreat Super cool!
Thats pretty cool. Metal heads are way more real than alot of today's "artists"
I just saw lamb of god perform right before megadeth in tulsa and they literally blew the roof off the place. Fuckin amazing moshpits and Randy's energy just hyped me up even more. Great frontman and vocalist. Props to all the band members as well cuz they fuckin killed it. Megadeth could not live up to the energy lambofgod brought but it was always an honor seeing legends play live.
He sounds the same live as he does on a record. That's why he is one of the GOATs to me.
You gotta get Maynard James Keenan on this show!
Fuck yes!!
Seriously that would be amazing
That would NEVER happen
+Lyrical Jones Maynard likes his privacy
I was thinking the same thing!!!
I had the privilege to meet the guys in LoG many years ago, and also rather recently. The first time I met them was on their first Ozzfest tour. John, Chris, Mark, and Willie were cool as hell and very chill, and laid back. Randy.........was a really, really big DICK. He was drunk as hell, and his bandmates eventually told him to go in the bus and "do something useful like passing out in the Fkng bus, and stop acting like an asshole!!!" The last time I met them, all the guys were really cool and chill, and Randy was especially down to earth and friendly.
Well, just one word: DRUGS. Because now that dude's sober, it seems that he's recovered at least some common sense.

Ashes of the wake and sacrament their best to me. But before they changed the name to lamb of god they was called burn the priest.

"I'm not a metal head" -Randy Blythe
guy's literally got a children of bodom tattoo hahaha!
I really enjoyed this. Randy always captures my attention when he speaks, and he's great live :) Looking forward to the new album.
His response to looking up to Megadeth is hilarious since they're doing a big tour together this year (2020)
Andrew B right! I’m going to see that show though. LOG and Trivium are a good show together
Right on man, a few friends and I are going too. Love LoG and Trivium, and In Flames shouldn’t be good too. Plus we got tickets on Groupon for $15 flat so can’t beat that for such a solid line up. Enjoy
Damn this comment didn’t age well
and this year too haha!
"There's no palaces in Indiana"
"There's some double wide palaces"
Well done, that joke got me.
As I'm from indiana I too lost it
ah indiana im trying not to hate it xD
hey... easy kid. I'm living in a double wide palace. little shit.
ACTUALLY a guy built a castle for his wife in my home town. It’s kinda neat.. built out of concrete blocks
Hey now! We may not have any palaces here, but we know how to have fun! Dammit 😋
I love how when Randy heard Megadeath he was like "No! Fuck No!" 😂
Wait, why doesn't he like Megadeth?
tbh.. I really don't know
+UA-cam Account 16 Well I wouldn't say it's that he "doesn't like" them. More like they didn't influence his tastes.
That's cool. Randy and Lamb of God are awesome but I myself cannot deny Rust in Peace is a badass album.
He is not a metalhead, he said it just after.
Megadeth "FUCK NO"
Literally saw Lamb of God the other night for the first time live. They played before Megadeth, and I left shortly after Megadeth started. They could not follow through after Lamb of God kicked my god damn face off.
Same. I just seen them 2 nights ago in Indianapolis. After LOG i left after like 2 Megadeth songs. LOG destroyed that place. Thats what I went for.
Same!! Just went to the show at DTE and we left right after Megedeths opening song! Your absolutely correct, they couldn't follow LOG
Cool story bros
I went to megadeth tonight in Omaha April 26th 2022. And my God lamb of god fucking JAMS!!!! I still loved seeing megadeth but I was super impressed with LoG
i also can confirm that lamb of god definitely stole the show in a concert at peoria they're just way more energetic than megadeth which makes sense.
Randy's reaction to Slayer is surprising given that the first time I saw Lamb of God live was opening for slayer
Proksimity That’s the first time I saw them too. But Randy’s not really a metal guy, it’s nothing against them
What does that have to do with looking up to them? lol.
Promotion companies, booking agents, managers... They book the tours. Doesn't mean the bands like each other, musically or personally.
First time I saw lamb of God was with behemoth, hate breed, and 3inches of blood. Then a couple years later saw them with gwar, and then slayer
Randy's a great dude, glad to see him sober and the band is now better then ever.
He’s not a great guy. He murdered a fan at his own concert
Didn’t murder anyone. Security Guard didn’t do his job. Randy had to opportunity to come back to America and not get charged but he went back there and possibly go to jail.
I love Lamb of God. Great band, good people.
I remember Randy playing with suicide silence (you only live once) during the Mitch Lucker memorial show. Best live performance I've ever seen
man this dude gives off such a grimy punk rocker vegan vibe but at the same time he's so well spoken and a chill you can't help but like him.
As a punk rocker I can vouche that a lot of punks are dumbass idiots, I can vouche a very high number of them are probably posers who don't have any idea what they're actually talking about and won't be punk for very long, and some are actually legit mentally ill.

You just need to get to know them, as most punks have social issues and rough exteriors.
"Did you look up to Slayer?"
"Meh"
Saw Lamb of God in the summer when they toured with.... Slayer
Derek J. Doesn’t mean they look up to them
Same, saw them in August.
Derek J. I mean, hey dude. If a legend asks you to open with them, you do it. It sounds like Randy is much more of a punk guy.
So if slayer asked your band to tour with them you would say no? And he says he is a punk not a metal guy.
In Portugal in july he frickin destroyed the stage cz he was pissed it was his last show with Slayer or something
It doesn't take long to get the vibe Randy would probably be a hard guy to have to work with.
how so?
Check out the DVD of the making of Sacrament or Killadelphia. You can find em all here on UA-cam. Randy was an asshole when he was drinking!
You can tell he can be pretty pretentious.

Lamb of God was the first metal band I listened to and still listen to this day. Great memories
Dave Mustaine dissliked that with 66 diffrent acounts

So crazy in love with this man. Can't say how appreciative I am, sincerely. Thank you Mr. Blythe. Thank you Randy.

ashes of the wake has always been my favorite metal album
It's s damn good album
my brother was deployed in iraq and he was telling me during "The Surge" they were issuing humvees with speakers and metal CDs. he said one of the craziest scenes he ever saw was Marines rolling across the Euphrates blasting "now you've got something to die for" mid fire fight
NRH111 thanks for sharing this story. The songs that our troops are inspired by? That makes it my theme song too. God bless them all!
@@dixirose111 the way he explained it to me it was more of a psy-ops thing, must have been terrifying to hear american death metal as some poor goat herd whos never left his area. Most hadnt heard music like that before and some even ran. Plus it doesnt hurt to improve morale with some good tunes
I listened to Slayer during the war. In Gulf War 1 some pilots blasted Slayer out of loud speakers.
9:05 Randy trying to hide how peeved he is by Mark throwing him under the bus is hilarious lol
Read Randy's book. He's an alcoholic and at the time that was probably true. I totally understand Randy's response. He wasn't peeved, he smiled because he knew how his band mate/brother felt at the time, because of his alcoholism.
I've seen these guys 5 times. They're always on top of their game. And I love that he hates Megadeth and loves Bad Brains.
I was mildly inrigued when my friend showed me New American Gospel in high school, but I wasn't really hooked until I later saw the video for Ruin on headbangers ball and then that same month heard 11th hour on the Freddy Vs. Jason soundtrack.
That's when I became so hooked on what seemed like a genius style that I had to get As The Palaces Burn. That album, start to finish, is one of my top 3 to this day. Ashes Of The Wake was my soundtrack while I was joining the Army, which probably reveals my compartmentaling mind a bit since I agreed with Randy's views on principle, but was still volunteering to join the Iraq war... on principle.
I bought the Burn The Priest album at an FYE with a sticker that said "File under 'Lamb Of God'," and only liked one song. I bought NAG around the same time and loved the structure of one song, but couldn't stand the coffee can drums and Randy's unintelligible and high pitched vocals on most of the songs.
Palaces and Ashes are LOG to me. I don't dislike their new stuff, it's just not as emotionally relevant to me because of when, how, and why I found and loved those albums the way that I did and still do. And since I own those albums, I can enjoy them whenever I want without demanding that the band release new music that sounds like their old stuff. Because they have their end of what they do, and I have our end of what they do. I'm lucky enough not to have to live it, so I can stay happily stuck in the past.
They can't, or else they'd become another Megadeth. 🤷🏼♂️
Randy is such a cool guy, love him
I want your username
+kimmy101 lmao
+YGBeats what LOL I tried to get characters names from all sorts of things and they always say they're taken
+kimmy101 LMAO😂
+kimmy101 You like Lamb of God?
When someone says "My Dad is in a metal band." I immediately think Randy.
Randy!! Long time since I've seen you at the 711 downtown. You make us people from RVA proud!! Fuck yeah man.
I love lamb of god and I’m a punker. Randy would be a awesome punk singer
Dude I'm literally what you described. I always liked lamb of god because their lyrics were like a punk bands lyrics. They were actually the first concert I ever went to, was 14.
seems like a guy you like in general but hate in person
Randy seems nutty as a fruit cake but he's still one of the most bad ass screamers alive.
That Opeth shirt though
that black flag shirt....
Opeth is so amazing
Ironically is just saw Lamb of God opening for Slayer about a week ago. Lol. They killed it too
I went to the show on Friday, such an amazing show, I think LoG is better live than on record
yup. just dont listen to him talk.
Its a lower case god
Same they put on a killer show in Denver
You Fred Durst lookalike...
One the best frontmen to ever do it love and respect to this guy
“Sex Pistols” “YES!” “Megadeth” “NO”
It’s so weird to see someone with harsher vocals talk like he’s stoned.
Graham: "As a teenager, you looked up to the Sex Pistols"
Randy: "Yes"
Graham: "Megadeath"
Randy: "No. Fuck no"
Best scene!
Loudwire please try to make one of these with Corey Taylor!
It would be a fantastic one
gematria696 YES. GOD YES
YES THIS NEEDS TO HAPPEN
Fuck yeah!!
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS TO HAPPEN
They've done two by now👍
I wanna ask Randy why if he loves punk rock and says hes not a metalhead, what makes him do the awesome metal vocals he does. Im very greatful, just curious.
I think he said a couple of times that his growling started out as a joke, but people liked it so he rolled with it
As a punk rocker I can vouche that a lot punks like metal also, we just prefer punk music, but also the punk lifestyle, and culture. Lots of modern punk bands have very obvious metal influences in their music. So as a punk myself, I can see how this could happen.
Man, I love Lamb of God... I own a Willie warbird!!!! Can't play like Willie and Mark because those guys are just so awesome. Thanks to all of the band members for great music!
His head looks too big for his body. That's weird. Fun segment though.
Sexpistols
Yes
Megadeth
NO!
FUCK NO!
Me: lol
Ocean Sage in a Metal band shuts down Megadeth FUCK No
Graham, here in Indiana we prefer to call them modular palaces. Close though!
Love ya Randy. You're an inspiration to me to quit alcohol.
I totally saw Gruhamed at the Mastodon show in Central Park a couple of weeks ago.
I can't tell if I like him a whole lot... or if i don't like him much at all. Interesting character.
LOL "I hope one of those dudes doesn't sneeze..."
HAHAHAH OMF.
"COBHC" tattooed on randy's arm at 2:57
good catch! didn't know he was a fan of COB. rip alexi
I loved the raw quality of New American Gospel. I think it sounds sick af!! Its what turned me on to LOG
People don’t realize that you can’t grasp someone’s entire worldview by just watching a 12 minute clip
I don't know what it is about Randy but I've always been strangely fascinated by him? His appearance, voice, mannerisms. So strange, yet so interesting to me. Quite the character 😂
Hugh Laurie probably used Randy as a point of reference for his House MD voice
The rest of the band is not allowed in the studio when vocals are being recorded. I love that.
I got to see Lamb of God AND Gwar together. Sick show, ears bled for 2 days.
Me too, 'sounds of the underground 'brought gwar & L o G (& opeth, unearth, devildriver, chamaira,strapping young lad,terror,every time I die, ,) to my town.a total kick ass show, even though it was in a crappy stadium for acoustics...
I just saw lamb of god with slayer and amon amarth was fucking awesome
7:50 as the Palaces Burn is a reference to stuff burning buring
Damn lets give randy a round of applause
I understand him coming from the punk rock scene, but how he can state that he's not a metal head?
Chino from the Deftones isnt a metal head either. They didnt grow up listening to metal and the other guys in the band brought the metal influence/sound.
***** Yeah, Jonathan Davis has said numerous times the same, but, I don't know. Maybe it's just me, but if anything defines person a metal head, it's that he writes metal and plays it to the audience. It's like a person who plays basketball in a professional team says "No, I'm not a basketball player, I didn't grew up watching that sport".
Christian Muhametov Yeah, but I would hardly call Korn, or the Deftones metal. Or at least real metal.
Christian Muhametov Im a metal guitarist, I never grew up listening to metal, I always followed electronic music.
Ot what he jamms to. Its what he does tho. Like aaron from gemini syndrome the vocalist jamms to tech nine. Its just what u jam too in thay case. He is metal man tho
Can we pleaseeeeee have more of Blythe!!
his voice is deep even when he talks normal
LOL, for having a fucking BEAST of a death metal voice. Randy's casual voice is relatively high pitched. Very interesting.
"I was an unseasoned singer" ... says one of the most incredible voices in metal of all time. Love that you guys changed the name. When someone suggests a metal band to me called "we bathe in corpses" or "bloodbath" or "satan's d*ck" I don't even want to listen to them. It's really annoying and stereotypical. Most of the real good bands have an a-typical thought out name: Lamb of God, Opeth, Periphery, Soilwork, Slipknot, Nevermore, Meshuggah, Architects... to name a few. I love how if you compare interviews of artists in metal with artists in current pop-culture. Everyone is always frowning at me for listening to Lamb of God, and then I pop up the lyrics of Embers versus the lyrics of any fucking Justin Bieber or Ariana Grande song. But even in the interview: the metal guys are much more thoughtful and wise, albeit rough around the edges. I prefer deeper meaning in music and most people laugh at me when I say metal provides that. Give me Lamb of God over any pop song ANY day.
I drank a couple beers with him and a buddy of his in 2004. At Pikes Place market in Seattle. We chilled for like an hour and he was just like a normal dude, was funny and it was just a cool experience. His buddy even came up to me at the show that night and was was just shootin' the shit again... Good times man!
He says people can't have been fans since 7 years old... I'm 38, so I was a teen when they were burn the priest, however; I've been a metalhead since I was exactly 7. My parents listened to hard rock and early metal, and my 16 year old neighbor introduced me to underground metal with their permission in 1988, when I was exactly 7. He'd give me dubs of all his newly acquired cassettes, and I was listening to stuff from Europe, and the Florida death metal scene.
Randy highly underestimates the ability of children. Sure, 90% of them are probably full of shit, but that still leaves 100 in every thousand telling the truth.
Not to mention anyone who's parents were listening to them when they may have been 7.
And he comments about being from a local scene... Yeah well guys like me who grew up in the days of tape trading were hearing local bands from all over the world. Whats his point? I heard the Burn the Priest release here in Vancouver... When you're into underground metal you search these things out, and end up in world wide trading lanes. People still do it today, but the internet made it far easier.
I started listening to metal ever since I could start walking.
Seems like dbag tbh
I was defintley listening to slipknot Megadeth slayer anthrax Korn hartebeed with my uncle in first grade forsure was 6 but ok
Randy seems super chilled out
It's funny cause they're touring with Megadeth this year!
I love how nervous the interviewer is :)
wait....so I've been mispronouncing his last name wrong?!
Brother i love your channel where every rockstars comes and talk to you. but actually some rockers speak too quickly and their voice is damn bold so many fans don't understand mostly those who's national language is not English so
We need subtitles in your every video . Thanks keep loving 💕🤘
'Megadeth..' "no fuck no."
Lamb of God were on tour with them this year or was i just asleep throughout the entire show??
:D
that doesn't mean he has to like them maybe other members of L.o.G do i know Chris likes them hell he played with them
burn the priest was pretty good. lamb of god is one of the best metal bands ever.
I was the one writing "Megadeth" and "Gwar". No joke. This is hella fun
I am especially for this segment
