Burn the Priest

Burn the Priest is the debut that the band later known as LAMB OF GOD released under their then-name "Burn the Priest." Centered on tenacious groove, it sounds the rough sound that would become their prototype. It is a record born from the late-1990s underground scene where hardcore and metal cross. Still rough though it is, the buds of complex riff work and body-swaying groove are clearly put forward at this point. Without letting only the flashy signature songs seize the ear, following the sonic center of gravity and the catch of the rhythm reveals elements throughout that lead to the later LAMB OF GOD. After this, the band would change its name to LAMB OF GOD and climb to the top of the scene. It is a record of important significance for knowing their origin.
