Lamb of God Debut Health Remix of 'Laid To Rest'
LAMB OF GOD, who launch their Ashes of Leviathan co-headlining tour with MASTODON tomorrow in Austin, Texas, have shared a second preview of Ashes Of The Wake (20th Anniversary Edition) with today’s release of “Laid To Rest (HEALTH Remix)”
“When we were discussing ideas for the 20th anniversary of Ashes Of The Wake, a HEALTH remix was one of the first things we thought of. Thanks to those guys for being a part of the anniversary release,” Randy Blythe shares about the reimagined track from the L.A.-based industrial rock band. “Laid To Rest” remains one of LAMB OF GOD’s most popular songs, consistently appearing on multiple outlets’ best-of lists. Kerrang! described the nearly-four-minute track as “the soundtrack to a million bust lips and broken bones,” while Loudwire plainly noted, “it knocks the wind out of you.”
HEALTH added: “Before you get angry with us for ruining your favourite song, please try to remember that Lamb Of God asked us to do this remix. Enjoy!”
