In 2015, the world lost Wayne Ford to leukemia. Ford became very good friends with Randall Blythe and Lamb Of God, and a song named "The Duke" was written about him. Unfortunately the track didn't make it onto Lamb of God's most recent album, VII: Sturm Und Drang, but it'll be seeing the light of day via its own EP this December!
According to The PRP, the EP is tentatively set to be out December 2 and will have the following tracklist.
- The Duke
- Culling
- Still Echoes (live at Rock am Ring)
- 512 (live at Rock am Ring)
- Engage The Fear Machine (live at Bonnaroo)
Neither "The Duke" nor "Culling" were available via any format of VII: Sturm Und Drang, so you're getting two new Lamb of God tracks in 2016! Furthermore, you can hear Ford and Blythe's story in full below, or read the entire thing via Lamb of God's website.
