LAMB OF GOD's Randy Blythe Calls Bullshit On Mayhem Fest Founder's "Metal Got Old, Bald, Gray" Comment

"…looking at the HUGE crowds we have played to on this 4 band bill so far, I gotta laugh"

The Mayhem Fest drama continues.

A quick refresher: after festival promoter Kevin Lyman blamed the lack of attendance at Mayhem Fest on metal being old, gray and fat, you may recall that Kerry King, who happens to be headlining the fest with his band Slayer, call the promoter a douche and then go on to trash the festival lineup and say he wouldn't pay to see it either this year. He also took a dig at the second stage lineup saying "what they’re calling a second stage is at best a fourth stage and they’re wondering why people aren’t showing up," which naturally offended one of the second stage bands.

But going back to the original comment about metal being old, gray and fat, Lamb of God's Randy Blythe took offense to the statement. Blythe is currently on the road with Slipknot on a tour that is in no way struggling and had some choice words of Lyman:

Kudos, Randy!
