The heavy metal tribute album "Cult of the Lamb: Hymns of the Unholy" features an impressive lineup of metal artists, including current and former members of bands like Killswitch Engage, Trivium, Polyphia, Animals as Leaders, Malevolence, While She Sleeps, and Monuments. The 6-track album is a collaboration between the game's developer Massive Monster, publisher Devolver Digital, and record label Laced Records.
The album takes the iconic melodies from the Cult of the Lamb soundtrack and transforms them into heavy metal "slammers." Some of the featured tracks include "Cult" featuring Howard Jones, Scott LePage and Mike Malyan, "Chaos" with Matthew K. Heafy and Mike Malyan, and "Pestilence" with Heafy, Javier Reyes and Malyan.
The developers say there is a natural link between the game's themes and heavy metal music, and they wanted to get some of the "GOATs" (Greatest of All Time) from the metal scene to put their spin on the music. Preorders for the vinyl version of the album are available now, with an expected shipping date in March 2024 along with some metal-themed merchandise.
Overall, this seems like an exciting collaboration that will appeal to both fans of Cult of the Lamb and the heavy metal genre. The impressive lineup of artists involved should result in a high-quality, authentic metal tribute album.
