Lamb of God<\/a> frontman Randy Blythe has revealed the reason for the metal band’s recent refresh of their logo.<\/p>\n

Fans will have noticed the new logo adorning the sleeve of the band’s upcoming 12th album Into Oblivion<\/a>, which will be released on March 13 through Century Media and Epic.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It replaced the logo that had been in use for around 20 years, and the reason for the change is likely not one you’ll have heard before.<\/p>\n

Blythe tells the Hardlore podcast: “Our logo, to be perfectly honest, needed changing. It\u2019s the papyrus font.<\/p>\n

“Had we known 20-whatever years ago that we would wind up looking like a falafel restaurant menu, we wouldn\u2019t have used that.”<\/p>\n

The Into Oblivion album title is Blythe’s commentary on the current state of the Unites States of America.<\/p>\n

He previously said: “In general, the album is about the ongoing and rapid breakdown of the social contract, particularly here in America. Things are acceptable now that would\u2019ve horrified people just 20 years ago.”<\/p>\n
