Lamb of God, formed in Richmond, Virginia in 1994, emerged from the collegeâbased collaboration of bassist John Campbell, drummer Chrisâ¯Adler, and guitarists Markâ¯Morton and Mattâ¯Conner, later joined by vocalist Randyâ¯Blythe and guitarist Willieâ¯Adler. The bandâs early releases under the name Burnâ¯theâ¯Priest-Burn the Priest (1999) and New American Gospel (2000)-established their grooveâmetal foundation. In 2003 the group released As the Palaces Burn, followed by Ashes of the Wake (2004), which entered the Billboard 200 at numberâ¯27 and sold over 35,000 copies in its first week. Subsequent albums Sacrament (2006), Wrath (2009), and Resolution (2012) continued this trajectory, with Wrath debuting at numberâ¯2 on the Billboard 200 and earning two Grammy nominations in 2010 and 2011 for Best Metal Performance. The band signed with Epic and Nuclearâ¯Blast, toured extensively-including supporting Metallica and Slayer-and released notable singles such as "Hit the Wall" (2011) and "512" (2015). In 2019 drummer Chrisâ¯Adler departed, replaced by Artâ¯Cruz, and the band released the selfâtitled Lamb of God (2020) and Omens (2022). The album, Into Oblivion, was released on 13â¯Marchâ¯2026, marking the latest entry in a discography that spans over two decades of consistent output and chart success.
