David Randall Blythe (born on February 21, 1971) is the vocalist of the band Lamb of God. He was known as D. Randall Blythe on Lamb of God's earlier albums, but now goes by Randy.
Biography
Randy Blythe joined Lamb of God, formerly known as Burn the Priest, in late 1996. The band wanted to retire from its original instrumental sound. His vocal style consists of deep 'growled' vocals, shrill screams, and recently baritone singing. He occasionally uses short quips of prose to outline the band's 'mission statement.'
Blythe was featured in a handful of his peers' DVDs, such as Killswitch Engage's (Set This) World Ablaze and Machine Head's Elegies. Randy was also featured in Metal: A Headbanger's Journey and Melissa Cross's The Zen of Screaming.
Blythe's haircut is known as the Devilock, and it was created by Glenn Danzig, Doyle Wolfgang Von Frankenstein, and Jerry Only, all members of The Misfits.
Blythe has a small tattoo on his hip that resembles a penis and two testicles. According to Randy in Killadelphia, it was the result of him trying to tattoo the Misfits' logo on himself while drunk and passing out before he could finish it.
He also has a tattoo on his left forearm reading COBHC, which stands for "Children Of Bodom Hate Crew" which is the name used by the band Children of Bodom for themselves, their crew, and all of their fans.[1]
Blythe also has a side project band known as Halo Of Locusts.
In late 2007 he worked with the heavy metal outfit A Life Once Lost on their album Iron Gag. He provided additional vocals on the track "Pigeonholed" as well as helped in the vocal processing of the track. He also appeared on the song "Skull and Bones"" by the band Overkill.
