Lamb Of God - Sacrament (2006) -

Lamb of God had already cemented their legacy as the next big metal band by their 3rd release, As the Palaces Burn. Taking the reigns after Pantera and tossing any subtlety out the nearest window. But 2006 came around, and the band was looking to branch out and do something...
