For Immediate Release:

LAMB OF GOD SET TO RELEASE LIVE AND UNCUT DVD, TITLED “KILLADELPHIA” JUNE 21 on EPIC RECORDS

During the last decade Lamb of God has brought pure American metal to the masses; performing for the nation on two of the heaviest tours ever to hit arenas: Ozzfest 2005, where they battered the second stage as one of the co-headliners, and on the recent Subliminal Versus Tour with Slipknot.

On June 21, Lamb of God release their live DVD titled, Killadelphia. Uniquely honest... equal parts comedy and tragedy... with lots of riffs, this three hour live media experience premiers their 75+ minute live concert recorded at Philly's legendary Trocadero. Also on the DVD is uncensored backstage footage with bonus personal outtake extras included to give fans an exclusive look of their uncut behind the scenes reality.

Guitarist Mark Morton explains, “We've finally completed our new full length DVD Killadelphia, and we're extremely excited about it. The live footage really captures the energy and dynamics of a Lamb of God show, and what better place to document it than Philadelphia. Philly was the first town to really support Burn The Priest back in the days when we performed in squats and warehouses, so it only seemed natural to shoot the footage there. It's mixed by Machine so it sounds amazing; the crowd was absolutely insane and the whole thing was really a very special moment for us.

“Along with the live show, Killadelphia gives you a remarkably candid view of the ins and outs, and ups and downs of being in Lamb of God. Some of this footage is intensely personal, and some of it was difficult to include, but we thought it would be best to really let people see what we go through...the good and the bad...it's who we are.”

Lamb of God are no strangers to adversity. Recently banned from playing the Forum in LA during the “Subliminal Versus Tour” due to their former Moniker Burn the Priest, this heavy metal machine took issues into their own hands and PUMMELED nearby venue The Glasshouse in Pomona. Beginning June 25th, fans will have the opportunity to be a part of the uprising as the band is headlining the Sounds of the Underground tour (in partnership with House of Blues, and in association with Ferret Music, Trustkill Records, Metal Blade Records, Prosthetic Records, Revolver Magazine, Music Choice, The Syndicate, Hot Topic, Jagermeister and Pure Volume.com).

Every venue on this tour welcomes Lamb of God and the diversity of the intense line up of the Sounds of the Underground Tour!

Lead singer D. Randall Blythe proclaims: "Lamb of God are very pleased to be included as the headliner for the Sounds of the Underground tour. The tour has a very diverse line up, including many of our old friends, and showcases established acts as well as many excellent up and coming bands to watch for. Corporate politics had no part in the formation of this tour -- this one's for the bands and the fans, not some executive's paycheck. The party is coming your way this summer -- show up with your dancing shoes and help us bring the ruckus!"
