The Ashes of Leviathan tour erupted like a thermonuclear explosion last night at Virginia Credit Union Live, marking Lamb of God’s triumphant return to Richmond for the first time since GwarBBQ in 2016. Joined by Mastodon, Kerry King (from Slayer), and Malevolence, the show was a raw and visceral, an unhinged testament to the power of Ashes of the Wake and Leviathan, both released on the same day in August 2004.

Here are some of the best images we captured from last night.

Richmond, you never fail to deliver.

We love you.
