(Metal Hammer) Randy Blythe is to auction a Lamb Of God gold disc to assist a cancer charity, in memory of the late fan who inspired the band's upcoming The Duke EP.

He wrote the title track as a tribute to Wayne Ford, who died last year, aged 33, after a five-year battle against leukaemia. The pair had known each other since 2012.

This week Blythe told how he'd asked Ford for a message he wanted to live on after him - and although he didn't receive a reply, the lyrics for The Duke were inspired by their other interactions.

The frontman said: "Those of us who think about how we'll die hope that we'll do so with dignity. But no one knows how they'll handle death until it comes for them." Read more here.
