39.Lamb of God-Resolution (2012)
Lamb of God has been one of my favorite bands since I was 15 or 16 years old. One of the many reasons they've earned that distinction is their ability to put out consistently excellent records over the course of their almost 20-year career. Their most recent record, Resolution, not only continued the trend, but is also one of the strongest releases they've ever produced. Resolution is the work of a band that knows what they're good at, but also adds a little variance to keep things fresh. The Crowbar-esque sludge riffing on "Straight From the Sun" and the classical-inspired strings that drive "King Me" are nice little detours from Lamb of God's trademark groovy sound. On top of the bursts of experimentation, Resolution also sees another stellar vocal performance from Randy Blythe, the best constructed solos that Mark Morton and Willie Adler have ever written and of course, an ample amount of punishing riffs. Resolution doesn't stray much from the sound we've grown accustomed to hearing from Lamb of God, but their ability to still be at the top of their game and still sound fresh at this stage of their career is a remarkable accomplishment.
