[@joshuamartin9255]

I hate drawing comparisons between legendary bands. I don't think they mean "replace" as if they're similar and LoG is over taking them. I believe it's meant more in the sense that Slayer is done, so LoG is kind of moving into their place as a super iconic metal band

Randy "you knnnoooowww" Blythe

[@michaelr.4878]

Even worse than the 'you knowwwwws', was him saying the word 'record', over and over again. I swear, when some of these musicians do interviewers, they try to see how many times they can say the word 'record', in the interview. It drives me absolutely crazy. 'While recording this record, we tried to set a record to see how many times we could say the word record in our interviews about the record'. It is and always has been a pet peeve of mine.

[@loganressler9173]

Just happened upon this interview, I'm not used to interviewers in the metal scene being this articulate and cogent.

[@tonyk80]

LOG is not taking Slayer's place. They are not even remotely the same type of band.

[@metalheadblues]

Exactly

[@metalwhore]

Tony Klar i think it’s just based on the fact that they’re as heavy that’s bigger than most bands excluding the big four obviously. In my experience Lamb of god is like the common band. I like pretty much all the big four expect anthrax but my friends might like Metallica and hate megadeth and slayer and anthrax but still dig LoG. Cause at the end of the day no matter how similar or different they sound they’re pretty much all influenced any combination blues, rock and metal.

[@SniffHeinkel]

Yeah. LOG doesn't jump cut their songs.

[@rtyuik7]

in my opinion, Slayer makes music that tries to be World-Record Fast; Lamb of God understands that sometimes Slower riffs are Heavier (for example, "Ghost Walking", the 'waiting for the ghost to BIIIIITE' part-- the guitars are playing Two Different Notes, between the emphasized first-fret and the palm-muted open strings, and that shit fucking KILLS)...if anything, id say that Children of Bodom is the 'happy medium' between the two, where the guitar solos are still wicked fast, but theyre still melodic enough to sound pretty...and not like a cat thats on fire, like some of Slayer's solos -_-

[@baruchjauregui188]

I have never (yet) heard a Lamb of God song, but looking at and listening to this guy talk about his music and the latest album I already know discovering the band will be one of those earthshattering experiences. Oh, it was the dreads that made me click the vid. He got awesome dreads but mine are longer. He is wearing them way more awesome than I wear mine, though. Got to be that rock n' roll nerve that he is practically vibrating with sitting there all relaxed and slightly stoned.

[@prizm2807]

I wont see or listen to L.O.G without Addler. It's like a human body missing its heart beat or spine. The soul is gone, the driving force of what made L.O.G.

[@themightymcb7310]

Seen them live both with and without Chris. They killed it both times. Chris matters more from a studio standpoint, but live it really doesn't matter all that much. He was a fantastic drummer but he wasn't super flashy or anything. He wasn't an essential part of the live show like randy or even willie are.

[@fr9456]

I’m 45 (old school) and wasn’t a big fan of LOG but when I heard Memento Mori it opened my eyes of what I been missing. So brutal, heavy and aggressive. Without knowing about their drummer, I came out searching who it was. I never heard “in a big band” drums in metal like this. Makes Slayer look like a stroll in the park

[@JSpool1]

Lamb of God is an entity of its own. So is every band and with that being said... no one can take a place of another. Wether slayer, Metallica etc. each have their own style and resonance to this crazy ass world 🤘🏻

He is really uncomfortable whenever Chris is spoken of. Log should acknowledge chris work and effort whenever it's due
