Lamb Of God have shared a music video for their brand new single, “Omens”. The song is the title track to their forthcoming album, which is scheduled to drop on October 7th.

Frontman D. Randall Blythe says of the track: “I think a lot of the messes human beings find ourselves in could be very easily prevented simply by paying attention to obvious repeating patterns, both in our personal lives and in a broader sociohistorical context. What some call ‘omens’ are really just manifestations of the fact that there is nothing new under the sun. It’s foolish to ignore this, but we all do it.”
