The unholy triumvirate of Massive Monster, Devolver Digital and Laced Records have joined forces, looping in some demons of the heavy metal scene for a six-track Cult of the Lamb tribute album. It's called Cult of the Lamb: Hymns of the Unholy and features the smooth, musical stylings of members, past and present, of the likes of Killswitch Engage, Trivium, Polyphia, Animals as Leaders, Malevolence, While She Sleeps, and Monuments. Vinyl preorders are available now, and they are expected to ship in March, along with some very metal T-shirts.
It's a pretty cool concept, and Massive Monsters co-founder Jay Armstrong says there is a natural link between the games' themes and metal: "We’re huge fans of metal music and know there’s a lot of metalheads in the Cult of the Lamb community too...why not get some G.O.A.T.s from the world of metal to transform River Boy’s iconic melodies into heavy metal slammers?"
