Lamb of God has announced their 9th studio album, Omens due out on October 7th. The band plans to drop the lead single “Nevermore” on Friday.
Frontman Randy Blythe says of the record:

Lamb of God have also announced an extensive North American Tour with a stop in Chicago on September 24th at Huntington Bank Pavilion at Northerly Island. Killswitch Engage, Baroness, and Suicide Silence are set to open.
Guitarist Mark Morton says of the tour:
“Two decades ago, Lamb of God, along with Killswitch Engage, were a part of a new wave of American heavy metal music. Our scene grew from a small, loosely connected network of underground shows in basements and warehouses, into a global phenomenon that helped define an entire generation of modern heavy metal. We are thrilled to announce The Omens Tour, which celebrates not only the perseverance and impact of that original movement but also the creativity and originality of the bands that it influenced. Heavy metal is alive and well. The Omens Tour proudly showcases the depth and diversity of our scene. This is not a tour to miss.”
Tickets go on sale Friday morning at 10AM.
