Scott's Instrumental Metal Track of the Day - Ashes of the Wake by Lamb of God

If you don't like screaming but like heavy music, today's Instrumental Metal Track is for you! A brilliant display of punishing breakdowns and tight drumming embedded in a barrage of solos.

Ashes of the Wake is one of my favorite Lamb of God Tracks and serves as the title track off 2004 album. The song is not completely instrumental but the only vocals are snippets from former staff sergeant and former Marine Jimmy Massey in an interview after his return from the Iraq War. his song features guest guitarist Alex Skolnick (of Testament) and Chris Poland (Formerly of Megadeth).
