Metal titans Lamb of God are keeping pace with last year’s album of the same name. They just announced a reissue of the deluxe edition of this eighth album, which comes packed with a live recording and a DVD of the band’s live performance in 2020. One of the two bonus tracks, “Ghost Shaped People”, has also been released.
You know very well what to expect from this new song – tank floor grooves, technical accents and Randy Blythe’s enraged view of today’s world and the proliferation of ignorance.
“This album, and in particular, this deluxe edition is something I’m incredibly proud of,” said guitarist Willie Adler.
“Throughout the process of composing, recording and subsequently filming the live broadcast, I knew that we were creating much more than a collection of songs. Much more than just a broadcast performance,” he continued, noting: “That was energy energy that, for me, is very tangible, and now, more than ever, in an era when human interaction is so limited, art … whether musical, visual or not, is a point of human connection . And we need it as much as possible! I hope you all enjoy this deluxe edition as much as we enjoy creating it. Thank you. “

Lamb of God, lyrics for “Ghost Shaped People”
A message in the bottle popped into your head
All those years screaming the words you never read
Sucking a xenon, everyone salutes the cretin king
An idiot’s apprentice, a fawning dreamThey say jump, you ask how high
And watch your freedom dieWhat will you believe?
Who are you going to cheat on?
What will you believe?
Who are you going to cheat on?
What is the cost of victory?You always chose the easy way, always committed
You never struggle to read between the lines
Rotting in a garbage pit, it embraces the weaker race
Join the pack of rabid dogs and lick the beating handIn the cattle wagon, full speed ahead
Your ticket to regretWhat will you believe?
Who are you going to cheat on?
What will you believe?
Who are you going to cheat on?
What is the cost of victory?A glaring dysfunction paradigm
A shallow sea of reactions
A violent substitute passion
You tied the noose around your own neckWhat will you believe?
Who are you going to cheat on?
What is the cost of victory?What will you believe?
Who are you going to cheat on?
What is the cost of victory?The cost of victory
