LAMB OF GOD is celebrating their latest accomplishment, a
nomination for a Grammy Award. The nomination is in the “Best Metal
Performance” category for the track “Set to Fail” from their #2
debuting album “Wrath,” which was released on Epic Records in
2009.
Guitarist Mark Morton had the following to say about their
nomination: "It's an absolute blast to have been nominated once
again for a Grammy. Of course, our greatest reward has always been
our collective love for the music we make. That, combined with the
unbelievable support and loyalty of our fans around the world, is
without a doubt what keeps us going. The Grammy’s, however,
represent a recognition from a completely different perspective and
we're honored to be considered alongside some of metal's most
legendary bands. The entire music industry has been forced to
reinvent itself, and it feels good to know that all of the noise
we've been making has had an impact!"
LAMB OF GOD is no stranger to the Grammy Awards, as they were
previously nominated in the “Best Metal Performance” category for
their song “Redneck” from 2006 album “Sacrament.”
The band will be back on the road in 2010 to lap the world again
in support of their latest album, "Wrath," which exploded onto the
Billboard 200 back in February of 2009 debuting at #2 and selling
over 67,000 units in its first week.
