Randy Blythe said the following about the record:

“The world is crazy and keeps changing. ‘Omens‘ is a reaction to the state of the world. It’s a very pissed-off record. It is extremely pissed-off.”

Mark Morton added:

“The inner workings of the band have never been better. You can hear it in ‘Omens‘. You can see it in our performances, and if you’re around us for five minutes, you can feel it.”

With this news, the band have also revealed the dates for their North American tour with Killswitch Engage. The trek will take place this fall with Baroness, Motionless In White, Spiritbox, Animals As Leaders, Suicide Silence, and Fit For An Autopsy set to open on select dates. Morton said the following about that:

“Two decades ago, Lamb Of God, along with Killswitch Engage, were a part of a new wave of American heavy metal music. Our scene grew from a small, loosely connected network of underground shows in basements and warehouses, into a global phenomenon that helped define an entire generation of modern heavy metal.

We are thrilled to announce The Omens Tour, which celebrates not only the perseverance and impact of that original movement, but also the creativity and originality of the bands that it influenced. Heavy metal is alive and well. The Omens Tour proudly showcases the depth and diversity of our scene. This is not a tour to miss.”
