Lamb Of God, Killswitch Engage, Baroness & Suicide Silence at Freedom Mortgage Pavilion

Lamb of God is one of the most prolific bands to emerge from the new wave of the American heavy metal movement. The band’s aggressive riffs, catchy grooves, and powerful double bass drumming have captured the attention of heavy metal listeners. Here was a band who came out dressed in plain back shirts and cargo trousers. There was no gimmick, no outrageous masks nor black eyeliners – just long-haired dudes from Richmond, Virginia, who wanted to play metal.

The band had their first breakthrough with their sophomore album, As the Palaces Burn. The 2003 studio effort entered the Billboard 200 chart, landing at number 64. As the Palaces Burn was preceded by its title track and “Ruin.” By the time Lamb of God dropped their fourth album, Sacrament, they had cultivated a massive following. Thanks to the band’s loyal supporters and ever-curious casual listeners, Sacrament soared to number 8 on the Billboard 200, number 2 on the Top Rock Albums, and number 3 on the Top Tastemakers Albums charts. The 2006 album features two of Lamb of God’s landmark singles, “Redneck” and “Walk with Me in Hell.” Lamb of God released their most successful album, Wrath, in 2009. The record peaked at number 2 on the Billboard 200, their highest-charting effort to date. Moreover, the album topped three other Billboard charts, including Top Rock Albums and Top Hard Rock Albums.

With almost three decades behind them and several monumental and highly-acclaimed albums, the band remains at the forefront of the heavy metal industry. If you’re keen on experiencing their legendary mosh pits and banging your head to their supercharged metal grooves, then score your tickets now!
