LAMB OF GOD  follows 2020’s No. 1 Hard Rock Album with a vicious new testament. Riding high on a creative renaissance saluted by the likes of  Rolling Stone  and  NME , the Grammy-nominated goliath returns with the gloriously unhinged  Omens , produced by longtime collaborator Josh Wilbur (Korn, Megadeth).

The first single,  “Nevermore,”  arrives on Friday, June 10.  Omens   follows on October 7 via Epic Records.

The New Wave Of American Heavy Metal architects will support the new album with a massive Live Nation produced U.S. headlining tour,  The Omens Tour,  featuring special guests  Killswitch Engage  on all dates. Different legs will also see support from  Baroness ,  Motionless In White ,  Spiritbox ,  Animals As Leaders  as well as  Suicide Silence  and  Fit For An Autopsy . The tour kicks off September 9 in Brooklyn and runs through October 20, see full routing below. Tickets go on sale starting Friday, June 10 at 10am local time on  lamb-of-god.com .

Citi is the official card of the  The Omens Tour . Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets beginning Tuesday, June 7 at 10am ET until Thursday, June 9 at 10pm local time through the Citi Entertainment program. For complete presale details visit  Citi Entertainment®

"Two decades ago,  Lamb of God , along with  Killswitch Engage , were a part of a new wave of American heavy metal music. Our scene grew from a small, loosely connected network of underground shows in basements and warehouses, into a global phenomenon that helped define an entire generation of modern heavy metal. We are thrilled to announce  The Omens Tour , which celebrates not only the perseverance and impact of that original movement, but also the creativity and originality of the bands that it influenced. Heavy metal is alive and well. 

The Omens Tour  proudly showcases the depth and diversity of our scene. This is not a tour to miss."  -  Mark Morton

Densely muscular, soaked in unnerving spite, with a pessimistic eye toward inner struggles and global affairs alike,  Omens  is a furious entry in the  Lamb Of God  catalog, perhaps their angriest album yet.  "The world is crazy and keeps changing.  Omens  is a reaction to the state of the world,”  explains vocalist  D. Randall Blythe .  "It’s a very pissed-off record.”  He pauses for emphasis.  “It is extremely pissed-off.” 

Omens   is also  Lamb Of God 's most diverse affair. The band tracked live in the room together at Henson Recording Studios (formerly A&M Studios) in Los Angeles, California, a location that birthed classics from The Doors, Pink Floyd, The Ramones, and Soundgarden, among others.  "The inner workings of the band have never been better,”  explains guitarist  Mark Morton .  “You can hear it in  Omens . You can see it in our performances, and if you're around us for five minutes, you can feel it."

The  Omens  album pre-order is live now at  Lamb-Of-God.com , boasting several exclusive items, including a signed colored vinyl variant, shirt, hoodie, and signed CDs with an alternate color cover. All physical CD and Vinyl releases will include a free access code to watch the livestream viewing of  "The Making of Omens"  documentary, which will premiere the week of album release.

About  LAMB OF GOD :

"For millions of headbangers,  Lamb Of God  are simply the most important contemporary metal band in the world,"  Guitar World  observed.  Lamb Of God  grew from basement shows and grimy DIY venues to arena headliners. Over the course of their career, the Richmond, Virginia-based band earned a reverence akin to musical forefathers (and road companions) Metallica, Slayer, and Megadeth. Timeless songs like "Laid to Rest," "Redneck," "Walk with Me in Hell," and "Now You've Got Something to Die For" became anthems in the heavy metal songbook. They shoved heavy metal into the new millennium with  New American Gospel  (2000).  As the Palaces Burn  (2003) joined  Rolling Stone's  Top 100 Greatest Metal Albums of All Time.  Ashes of the Wake  (2004) was the first  Lamb Of Gold  album certified gold by the RIAA, a feat once all but impossible for a contemporary extreme metal band.  Sacrament  (2006),  Revolv er's  Album of the Year, went gold as well. The raw and organic malice of  Wrath  (2009) began the band's enduring relationship with Wilbur. Both the diverse  Resolution  (2012) and the explosive  VII: Sturm und Drang  (2015) debuted in the Top 5 of the  Billboard 200 . The 2020 self-titled set, their first new material in five years, added instant classics "Memento Mori" and "Resurrection Man" to the repertoire, alongside eight more monster tracks.  Revolver ,  Metal Hammer , and  Loudwire  included  Lamb Of God  on their year-end Best Albums lists. The momentum continues with   Omens , the band's most aggressive and ambitious album yet.
