LAMB OF GOD are tearing across North America on the "Into Oblivion" tour, which launched March 17 and runs through April 26. The tour supports the Richmond groove metal titans' 12th studio album "Into Oblivion", released March 13 via Century Media and Epic Records.
The support lineup reads like a murderer's row of modern heavy music. Kublai Khan TX bring their crushing hardcore-inflected heaviness as direct support, followed by the technical death metal precision of Fit For An Autopsy and the gleefully disgusting death metal of Sanguisugabogg. It is a bill designed to leave audiences physically and emotionally destroyed.
Produced by longtime collaborator Josh Wilbur, "Into Oblivion" delivers ten tracks of the unrelenting aggression and social commentary that has defined LAMB OF GOD for over two decades. The album was preceded by a string of singles — "Sepsis", "Parasocial Christ", "Into Oblivion", and "Blunt Force Blues" — each of which demonstrated the band's continued ability to balance crushing heaviness with thought-provoking lyricism.
Frontman Randy Blythe has described the album's thematic focus as "the ongoing and rapid breakdown of the social contract" — a subject that resonates deeply in the current political and social climate. His lyrics tackle institutional decay, digital isolation, and the erosion of collective responsibility with the same unflinching directness that has made him one of metal's most compelling vocalists.
With a stacked lineup, a powerful new album, and a band performing at the peak of their powers, the "Into Oblivion" tour is shaping up to be one of the must-see heavy music events of early 2026.
