Lamb of God reveal Burn The Priest cover of ‘Kerosene’

LAMB OF GOD have released a new cover song!

The new cover track, Kerosene (originally performed by BIG BLACK), is taken from the band’s upcoming cover album Legion: XX whereby they have reverted to their previous name; BURN THE PRIEST. Speaking about the cover and adoration for BIG BLACK, vocalist Randy Blythe says, “BIG BLACK is a very important band to me. When I was 12 and first listening to punk rock, I thought all punk came from England – but then through skating, I got into BLACK FLAG and BAD BRAINS. I soon discovered this super-smart American punk rock – very caustic, and deeply sardonic about the murky side of the human experience. That got me into Steve Albini‘s future bands SHELLAC and RAPEMAN – and all the noisy smart punk rock on labels like AmRep and Touch & Go. Kerosene was one of their biggest songs, if they even had one. It speaks to small-town boredom.”
