Lamb of God is all wrapped up recording their brand new album. Or as guitarist Mark Morton puts it, "I think it's been printed at this point. I think the last mixes and masters are printed."
According to Morton in an interview with Trunk Nation, the new album was written with new drummer Art Cruz. Cruz replaced original drummer Chris Adler in 2019, but has been filling his spot live since 2018.
"We've got new music coming soon. And I really, really couldn't be more excited about it. There's a whole fresh new energy in the band. It's our first recordings with Art. Art's been playing drums with us now for a couple of years, but these are our first songs that we've written and recorded with him there. And it's just a thrill to see these things come to life. And I couldn't be happier with how the record is turning out, and I'm excited for the world to hear that. There's gonna be a lot of touring around that, so we're gonna be super busy on the road."
Morton added that no release date is yet planned.
"There's not. There's a time frame. I don't actually know a date — they haven't announced yet. But I would think — first half of the year, I think."
Lamb of God is also rumored to be headlining the comeback Mayhem Fest this year with Megadeth. Which makes sense considering both those bands have albums (or at least new music) coming soon.
