Lamb Of God Partners With Specticast For Worldwide Distribution Of “As The Palaces Burn” Feature Film.
Lamb Of God are pleased to announce that they have entered in to a worldwide distribution deal with Specticast (Led Zeppelin Celebration Day, Paul McCartney Rock Show) for their Don Argott (Last Days Here, Art of the Steal, School of Rock) directed feature film “As The Palaces Burn”. Filming for the feature began in 2012 and concluded in March of 2013.
“As The Palaces Burn”, not to be confused with the making-of documentary packaged with the recent re-release of the 2003 LAMB OF GOD album of the same name, was conceived to be a documentary focused on the power of music and its impact on cultures around the world and its ability to bring together people of all nationalities regardless of religious or political differences. After a worldwide casting call, filming took place in Colombia, Venezuela, Israel, India, and the United States. As filming reached its conclusion, the documentary was forced to take a major turn when the band’s lead singer, Randy Blythe, was arrested in the Czech Republic and charged with the murder of a fan in June 2012. Granted unique access to Blythe’s continuing saga, Argott’s filming covered Blythe’s 38 day imprisonment in Prague, his release and the band’s return to live performances, and finally Blythe’s trial for murder in Prague in February 2013.
“As The Palaces Burn” will debut worldwide on February 27th. Following the film, a 30 minute Q&A with the entire band and director Don Argott will be shown. The Q&A was conducted by VH1 Classics Eddie Trunk and filmed at the final show of the band’s North American tour in support of their most recent release, Resolution.

Randy Blythe Releases Short Film Shot While He Was On Trial In Prague.
Randy Blythe has released a short film that he shot in Prague, Czech Republic, through his Tumblr page. The video is entitled ‘PRAGUE: The Devil Is In The Details’, and features various clips of buildings and monuments in the Czech capital, along with local folk culture marionettes. Randy had originally wanted to release it before his final trial hearing, but was advised against it by his legal team, as his artistic intentions could have been misconstrued.
Of the video, he states:
“This is a movie I made in Prague during my trial. …… My idea was to show my mind set through film and music during the process of my trial …… Working in a creative capacity during the trial helped me to remain calm”
The video is embedded below for convenience, but head on over to Randy’s Tumblr page for the full story to go with it.
