Lamb of God Releases Pro‑Shot ‘Sepsis’ Live Video From Aftershock Festival

The clip captures the first outing of a new single rooted in social critique with a clear nod to the band’s Richmond origins.

Overview

  • The band issued an official live video of Sepsis from their October 3 Aftershock set, directed by Sam Shapiro and Kevin Garcia.
  • Frontman Randy Blythe introduced the track onstage as “about a national sickness,” framing the song’s thematic focus.
  • Sepsis arrived as a studio single on October 2, marking Lamb of God’s first original release since 2022’s Omens and reuniting them with producer Josh Wilbur.
  • Its initial rollout included a grainy, lo‑fi performance‑style video directed by Gianfranco Svagelj that spotlights Richmond’s underbelly.
  • Guitarist Mark Morton characterized the song as a celebration of Richmond underground bands, as the group promotes the track ahead of 2026 festival dates and a confirmed Headbangers Boat cruise.
