Lamb of God’s Randy Blythe, Chris Adler, and Willie Adler will help raise money for breast cancer survivors who need financial assistance in receiving reconstructive nipple tattooing.
The band has teamed up with Pink Ink Fund and Mekong Vietnamese Restaurant to hold a fundraising event in Richmond, Virgina on October 6th. Details follow:
After an interesting week of tweets from Lamb of God vocalist Randy Blythe, the frontman revealed via Twitter that he is at work raising money and awareness for breast cancer research, and is calling on fans for help.
“Who here likes boobs?,” Blythe tweeted earlier in the week, later stating, “Be HONEST fellas. How many of you have spent AT LEAST $10 in a strip club (ie on BOOBS)?”
After receiving a flood of comments from fans saying they have spent “WAY more than a lousy $10 on LUXURY BOOB ITEMS/SERVICES,” Blythe revealed that he will join his wife — beginning today — on a three-day, 60 mile walk in Washington, DC in support of breast cancer research.
Following last week’s internet fury over Randy Blythe’s unfavorable comments on djent, the Lamb of God frontman has again taken to Twitter to express his opinions — this time on illegal downloading.
Commenting in a series of tweets, Blythe stated, “What I am about to say is the cold, naked, HARD TRUTH: illegally downloading music is STEALING. YES, I SAID IT. And AS SUCH, it is UNETHICAL. If it wasn’t STEALING, then it would just be called ‘down loading’, NOT ‘ILLEGALLY downloading’. WHY this is such a HARD CONCEPT to grasp?”
Lamb of God drummer Chris Adler, Between the Buried and Me guitarist Paul Waggoner, and guitarist Keith Merrow have been at work on an unnamed project, according to a recent interview with Adler on GunShyAssassin.com.
While answering a number of fan questions on Twitter, Lamb of God vocalist Randy Blythe expressed his opinions on “djent,” a popular internet term referred to as a metal sub-genre inspired by Meshuggah.
In a series of tweets, Blythe commented, “THERE IS NO SUCH FUCKING THING AS ‘DJENT’. ITS NOT A GENRE. I’m sorry, it’s STUPID AS FUCK. Metal already WAY over classified. Look dude- all this BULLSHIT ‘Deathcore’ & ‘Djentcore’ & fucking ‘Cantplayinreallifebutcanonacomputer-core’ it’s just a NAME.”
