LAMB OF GOD at Kool Haus, October 22. See listing. At Sound Academy, October 23. See listing. $38-$52.50. RT, TF.
Lamb of God’s two October shows in support of last year’s decent Resolution album (Epic/Roadrunner), their seventh, will be a chance for the Virginia thrashy metal band to let off steam. After all, their troubles haven’t ended with singer Randy Blythe’s release from a Czech prison and acquittal on manslaughter charges related to a fan’s death at one of their concerts. Last week they were banned from Malaysia after Islamic officials declared their music “blasphemous.” Will they ever catch a break?
