Lamb of God Releases 'Sepsis,' First New Song Since 2022

The lo‑fi track pays homage to Richmond’s underground roots.

Overview

  • Lamb of God issued the single via Epic Records, marking their first original release since the 2022 album Omens.
  • Produced by longtime collaborator Josh Wilbur, the song arrives with a grainy performance video directed by Gianfranco Svagelj.
  • The video was shot in Richmond’s underbelly to mirror the track’s tense, claustrophobic feel.
  • Guitarist Mark Morton says the song celebrates local influences including Breadwinner, Sliang Laos, and Ladyfinger from the band’s early Burn the Priest era.
  • The release ties into active 2025 plans, with shows including Aftershock on October 3 and the Headbangers Boat cruise from October 31 to November 4, alongside other anniversary-year highlights.
