Lamb Of God Stream New Song 'The Duke'
.
(Metal Hammer) Lamb Of God have made their new track The Duke available to stream online. It's the title track from the band's upcoming EP and was written by frontman Randy Blythe as a tribute to Wayne Ford, who died last year, aged 33, after a five-year battle against leukemia. Blythe had known Lamb Of God fan Ford since 2012 and this week he revealed he will auction his gold record for Lamb Of God's Ashes Of The Wake to raise funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, in a further tribute to Ford. Blythe tells Rolling Stone: "He was just a really inspiring guy to talk to in the way he handled everything. He was just very levelheaded. You hear about people in their old age, when they get accepting of their mortality, that's kind of natural. "This is what that dude went through at age 33, and from talking to his family and his wife, it wasn't like it was a show he was putting on for the singer of his favorite band like, 'I am Mr Calm Guy.' That's just the way he was." Read more and stream the song here. Metal Hammer is an official news provider for antiMusic.com. advertisement |
