“LOG finally returns and the catchy songs are heavier and more melodic than ever – at the same time!”
INFERNO (FI) / Timo Isoaho
„“VII: Sturm und Drang“ is proof that LAMB OF GOD are among the trend setters in extreme metal. Besides the typical trademark sound the Virginia-based quintet delivers quite some surprises and opens another chapter in the band’s history.“
ROCK HARD / Thomas Kupfer
„That’s how groove metal has to sound these days! Raw and dirty!“
RCN / Michel Müller
