Walk with Me in Hell

So this is one of Lamb of God’s best songs I believe. I don’t know, I don’t like them and have heard only a handful of their songs; but this is their most talked about song along side Laid To Rest (which didn’t impress me either) so I gave it a try yesterday. You know, when I come across bands like this I just for some reason become curious to know whether all their songs are this bad or they actually have a couple of decent ones. Well, this one certainly hasn’t changed my opinion on this talent less band one bit so I’d say, no.

From Randy’s one dimensional vocals to the same repetitive guitar riff, this song sucks just like any other by them. It starts with some Children of Bodom-ish riff which is played for almost 40 seconds until we have the next riff which actually surprisingly goes well with the first one. But oh, as soon as the vocals come I am reminded of the fact that I’m listen to Metalcore, something worse than melodic death or power metal with harsh vocals. There’s really no riff during the verse, it just in infamous and irritating chugga chugga. At about three and a half minutes we have a solo; almost 30 seconds long, this is by far the best, or let’s says, the only good moment in the song. The last 70 seconds of the song are just comprised of the main riff and Randy telling us to walk with him in hell. That’s it folks, this is the best they can do.
