album review

Virginia metalcore kings Lamb of God get personal on the blistering Sacrament, an 11-track onslaught of machine gun riffs and larynx-shredding vocals filtered through an immaculately mapped-out rhythm section that owes as much to progressive rock as it does traditional heavy metal. Producer Machine, who helped craft 2004's Ashes of the Wake into one of the best metal records of the year, has returned, tightening his wrench and experimenting on Randy Blythe's voice like a fever-mad scientist. Longtime fans will no doubt debate the virtues of Sacrament's commercial bullet, the scathing White Zombie-meets-Megadeth single "Redneck," but the rest of the album is as brutal as anything they've ever done. Melodic opener "Walk with Me in Hell" culls inspiration from Piece of Mind-era Iron Maiden, "Pathetic" wraps itself around a sinewy lead that sounds like a snake swallowing dinner, and "Blacken the Cursed Sun," easily one of the best metal songs of 2006, shows further evidence of the band's potential to become the American version of Opeth. If Sacrament suffers from anything, it's a pounding sense of sameness. They rarely stray from the "Drop D" tuning, resulting in a second half that tends to blur, shake, and sputter out a bit, but there's no denying Lamb of God's almost unnerving power to conjure wind from the tiniest of stereo speakers. ~ James Christopher Monger, All Music Guide

      • The Sacrament

      • With the evolution of Randy Blythe's vocals, the guitar works of Mark Morton and Willie Adler, the bass work of John Campbell, and the drum work of Chris Adler, this is by far the best Lamb of God album to date. This blows Ashes of the Wake out of the water, don't get me wrong, Ashes has songs like "Laid To Rest", "Hourglass", and "Omerta", but those songs can't begin to compete with songs like "Walk With Me in Hell" "Pathetic", and "Requiem". The screams of Randy Blythe are of a one of a kind with the high pitched screams and the low pitched growls, that are his own vocal style that's easily recognized. The guitar work of Mark Morton and Willie Adler evolved with the incorporation of guitar solos that are present throughout the album. The double bass work of Chris Adler is amazing, with the 4-string bass work of John Campbell also evolves while trying to follow the works of Mark and Chris.
