Lamb of God postpone self-titled album

LAMB OF GOD have postponed their upcoming new album!

The upcoming album, a self-titled effort, was originally scheduled to be released in May this year but, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, has now been postponed. The new release date will be in June this year.

However, in the meantime, the band will release the third single from the upcoming record, New Colossal Hate, this Thursday.

In a statement about the album being postponed, the band says, “regrettably, we have to announce that the release date for our upcoming self-titled album is being moved five weeks, to June 19th. We’re in extraordinary times due to the current global reality and the delay of shipments of all-but essential goods needed in the fight against COVID-19. After talks with our labels, there is no other option than to delay the release so that fans who pre-ordered the album can receive the record they paid for.

We appreciate your patience during these times – a global pandemic is not something people in the music industry usually take into account when scheduling album releases, but as you know, this thing has affected everyone across the board, and we are no exception. We will, however, be releasing a new song, New Colossal Hate, this Thursday, April 23rd and plan to release a fourth song from the album before the full album is released in June. Thank you for your understanding. Wash your damn hands, let us know what you think of the new tunes, and see you on the road sometime!”

Lamb of God is now set for release on June 19th via Nuclear Blast Records.
