Lamb of God - Ashes Of The Wake: Wikipedia Album Entry

Ashes of the Wake is the fourth studio album by American heavy metal band Lamb of God, released in 2004. The album debuted at number 27 on the Billboard 200, selling 35,000 copies in its first-week and was rated by Guitar World as the 49th greatest Guitar Album of all Time. The album is more political than their previous work, aimed at the war in Iraq, with songs such as "Ashes of the Wake" (which includes snippets of former staff sergeant and former Marine Jimmy Massey in an interview after his return from the Iraq War), "Now You've Got Something to Die For", "One Gun" and "The Faded Line". As of August 2010, Ashes of the Wake has sold 398,000 copies in the United States, making it their highest selling album there.

DualDisc

A DualDisc version was released in the U.S. The DVD side contained the album in LPCM 2.0, and AC3 5.1, as well as various video clips, including the promo videos for "Now You've Got Something To Die For" (intended to promote the Killadelphia release) and "Laid to Rest", a short on the New England Metalfest, a "Meet the Band" and a clip from the Terror and Hubris DVD.
