Song of the Day: Lamb of God - Walk With Me in Hell

     While we're on the subject of good first songs on albums, here's another one!



     Lamb of God's 2006 album Sacrament opens up with "Walk With Me in Hell", an aural boot to the face that sets the tone for the ten tracks that follow. It's a full salvo of the groove and aggression that defines the record, establishing right out of the gate what's in store for the listener. The effect is the same as a good opening line to a speech, or a killer opening scene in a movie: the hooks are set and you're not going anywhere.
