Lamb of God are part of a recently burgeoning scene intent on bringing back the heaviness and brutality that once marked metal but has been worn down by several years of nu-metal, melodic metal and the current plethora of supposed metal bands that actually play post-grunge, namely Saliva, Staind, Linkin Park, etc. To their credit, Lamb of God do a good job of doling out genuine death metal with guitar riffs that are not too overly complex, vocals that are the requisite combination of growling and shrieking and violence as the subject of many of their songs. What's incredible is they manage to pull all this off despite the fact that they are on a major label. The band formed in Virginia in 1998, toured constantly and put out a pair of well-received records on indie labels. They were signed to Epic in 2003.
