LAMB OF GOD frontman Randy Blythe has shorn his signature dreadlocks
LAMB OF GOD made their debut performance at the Festival d’été de Québec 2023, marking the beginning of their tour in just two weeks.
The attentive fans quickly noticed a notable change in vocalist Randall Blythe‘s appearance. Gone were his long and distinctive dreadlocks, replaced by a nearly shaved head. This transformation after decades of sporting the dreads not only brings a refreshing change but also offers respite from the scorching heat.
Despite the alteration, Blythe‘s vocal prowess remained as powerful as ever, proving that his talent extends far beyond his hairstyle. Witness the captivating performance of LAMB OF GOD in the footage below, solidifying Blythe’s musical prowess regardless of his hairdo.
LAMB OF GOD will hit the road this summer for a 2023 headline tour featuring special guests ICE NINE KILLS, SUICIDE SILENCE, THE ACACIA STRAIN, FROZEN SOUL and more across select dates.
