Lamb of God have already given us a couple of punishingly heavy tastes of their new album VII: Sturm Und Drang, but now they've showcased a different side of their sound by sharing a video for "Overlord."
Much of this six-minute track is relatively restrained, as it sports slow tempos, clean tones, and richly melodic signing from frontman Randy Blythe. The arrangement eventually picks up speed and Blythe unleashes his growling scream over ultra-heavy riffs.
Meanwhile, the accompanying video shows black and white footage of two people whose obsession with their mobile phones results in them becoming detached from their surroundings. The way the story plays out is rather disturbing and slightly gory. It was directed by Jorge Torres-Torres, and based on a concept by Blythe. -- Exclaim!
