Shortly after completing their "Sleepless Empire EU/UK Tour", Italian metal icons Lacuna Coil continue their live momentum with the announcement of their "Sleepless Empire US Tour", which is set to start in March 2026. With this run of dates, the band brings their signature dark atmosphere and the emotional intensity of Sleepless Empire to stages across North America:

Lacuna Coil return to the US with special guests Escape The Fate, as well as VOWWS (Mar. 24 – Apr. 13, 2026) and AXTY (Apr. 15 – Apr. 29, 2026). The tour is set to start in New York on March 24th and concludes in Albany on May 1st.

The announcement comes with a corresponding new official video for "Hosting the Shadow", that shows Lacuna Coil in full force during their set at Aftershock festival in October 2025. Joining them on stage is Lamb Of God front-man Randy Blythe, who is featured on the album track.

"Filming the video for 'Hosting The Shadow' at Aftershock, sharing the stage with my family in Lacuna Coil and with Randy Blythe was a truly cathartic experience. Randy is not only an incredible, professional musician, he's also a precious friend and has added so much to our song. I think the video shows clearly the level of emotion and joy we shared both off and onstage - I used that positive energy to give it my all even though I was performing with a fever, ha ha! Please enjoy the video, I truly hope you like it!" - Cristina Scabbia

The track stands out as one of the most powerful moments on Sleepless Empire, and the video captures the raw energy and uncompromising presence of the band on stage.

Lamb of God have released “Parasocial Christ”, a relentless three-minute assault that once again pairs the Richmond metal titans with longtime producer Josh Wilbur. The standalone single follows “Sepsis,” which has dominated the U.S. metal charts for the past two weeks.

The song arrives alongside a stark, desaturated video directed by Jon Vulpine, whose unsettling visual style mirrors the track’s intensity as it captures a man’s descent into madness.

“The Information Age has birthed the attention economy, an industry worth hundreds of billions of dollars anchored in keeping eyeballs firmly glued to screens, thus generating ad revenue. Every second spent clicking and scrolling through the trivial and/or sordid details of other people’s lives, people that you will most likely never meet- celebrities, politicians, influencers- is another dollar in some already obscenely wealthy tech bro’s wallet,” Randy Blythe shares about the themes behind the track. “You are a product, and you are being sold in a marketplace you have no share in. The irony of you reading this some social media platform or music news aggregator site is not lost on me; nevertheless I hope this song might make you consider who and what you give your attention to. Fuck the clickbait, put down the phone, go live your life- it’s waiting for you out in what’s left of the real world.”

Lamb of God return with “Sepsis”, a visceral, menacing new single out now via Epic Records, marking the GRAMMY® Award-nominated band’s first new original music since 2022’s critically revered album, Omens.

Produced by longtime collaborator Josh Wilbur, the three-and-a-half minute track arrives alongside a grainy, lo-fi performance video (https://lamb-of-god.lnk.to/sepsisofficial) that offers a moody, unfiltered look at Richmond’s underbelly. Directed by Gianfranco Svagelj, the video captures the song’s slow-burning tension.

“’Sepsis’ is a celebration of the very underground local bands here in Richmond that we really admired when we were just forming Burn the Priest,” Mark Morton shares. “Bands like Breadwinner, Sliang Laos, and Ladyfinger—though they never got widespread attention outside of Richmond, those were the bands we listened to all the time. The song references that stuff in a way that’s a direct line to where we were coming from when we were in the basement writing our earliest material together.”

Lamb of God’s Ashes of the Wake (20th Anniversary Edition), featuring new mixes of classic tracks like “Laid To Rest” and “Omerta” by HEALTH and Justin K Broadrick, respectively, along with an enhanced version of “Another Nail For Your Coffin” with guest vocals from Malevolence‘s Alex Taylor and Kublai Khan TX’s Matt Honeycutt, is out now via Epic Records and Legacy Recordings.

The album’s release is accompanied by a lyric video for Justin K Broadrick’s (Godflesh/Jesu) reimagined version of “Omerta” (https://lambofgod.lnk.to/OmertaLyricVideo). “Since the release of Godflesh’s landmark 1989 debut album, Streetcleaner, I’ve been a fan of the beautifully abrasive sounds Justin Broadrick has unleased,” Randy Blythe shares. “To have this groundbreaking artist remix my personal favorite song from Ashes of the Wake is beyond wild to me.”

In a recent Revolver x Lamb of God special issue, Blythe explained that the song title refers to “the old-School Sicilian Cosa Nostra code of silence,” and adding, “that aspect of ‘handle your own shit’ is very attractive to me, especially in this insane, litigious, whiny society we live in.”

 


Lamb Of God had announced that they would be doing a co-headlining tour alongside Mastodon this summer. But had brought it up for the past 9-10 years discussing it to happen, well now it has happened and it has been a tour many will not forget…. Taking place during the middle of the week on Wednesday August 21st at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California in Los Angeles County, is when this sold out tour, would take place, having openers Malevolence and Kerry King bring forth their beginning’s with getting the crowd amp-ed up!


Malevolence started things off, after doors opened at 5PM, with them playing around 6PM for 30 minutes straight, the band got the crowd excited, everyone being into their performance. Their angst of energy was more hardcore meets heavy metal, delivering an in-between feeling, that was hard but heavy at times, even having some mellow moments that made it worth wild of seeing these guys play at least.

MALEVOLENCE:




Kerry King would be up next and everyone there knew of who he was, which was the guitarist of thrashers Slayer, who retired in 2019, but have made a minor comeback, and Kerry King has gone solo with this band, going on to release his debut album, touring on this trek, and tonight everyone was in awe of his craftiness. Playing a lot of tracks off the debut album, and a bonus track of Slayer’s material; Kerry King was what a lot of people are calling this act to be a Slayer 2.0. The music sounds just like if Slayer would have released it, and adding that cover track of his past creations as well, everyone in the venue got all hyped up when hearing “Raining Blood” played yet again. Truly Kerry King brought the heat, everyone was into his new act, and phrased him for it like no tomorrow!

KERRY KING:





Mastodon were to follow, and these guys were to celebrate the release of their sophomore album “Leviathan”, it being out for the past 20 years! The band decided to play the album in full swing, getting the audience into it, but many did depart during the band’s set. The material was played well, with provided effects like lighting, lasers, and instrumentals that made the music work out, but not too many were into it. Many there were enjoying it for what it was worth it, but a lot were parting ways, saying ado to these guys.

MASTODON:


 





Now having been co-headliners to Lamb Of God, Mastodon had done their thing. It was time for LOG to do it better, with their album celebration of “Ashes Of the Wake”, it also being around for the past twenty years. They too played this album from front to back with some addition tracks thrown in, making their set-up being quite hefty. They played for a good solid hour straight, playing a lot of fan favorites like “Laid to Rest”, “Now You’ve Got Something To Die For”, “Ashes of the Wake”, and others like “Walk With Me In Hell” and “Redneck”. The crowd were there for these guys, and they delivered, having fire, lights, and strobe affects, with screen antics that made their performance captivating yet entertaining through and through. Lots of energy given out, with musical direction that kept the crowd on their toes with each note played and lyric sung.

LAMB OF GOD:







All in all this “Ashes of Leviathan Tour” with Lamb of God and Mastodon was done right, some acts better than others, with headliners being burnt out but in a good way, making them the lamb chops, of the bunch.
