DESCRIPTION:
In 2010, a nineteen-year-old super-fan rushed the stage during a Lamb of God concert in Prague. My book starts there.”. Unbeknownst to Blythe, the young man hit his head on the floor when he fell and later died from the injury. To protect himself, singer Randy Blythe pushed the fan away. As he explains, Most substance abuse books end with the author getting sober. Blythe was promptly incarcerated on charges carrying a prison term of five to ten years. Although legal experts told him not to return to the Czech Republic to face the charges, Blythe explained that he could not run away from this problem while the gr
There's no ghostwriterwhy would a lyricist want one? Instead, Blythe's low, sardonic Virginia rumble flows through every word. It succeeds by sharing insights into common human suffering.”Portland Book Review, 1/6/16D.

Dark Days indeed Dango Just finished reading this book. Surprisingly, I had not even heard of his incarceration until watching a TV show long after the fact, and I think that just points to the lack of coverage in the media. Unless I had picked up a guitar magazine, or been looking up the band at the time, I had no idea this was happening.My first impression was, "Why is he holding back?" He talks a lot about his battle with sobriety, and like all metal tell-all books I was expecting some crazy stories about some crazy stuff he did while drinking. But then I remembered the title of the book - Da. Sean Gdula said At the end you'll think "Did this really happen?". This story is something that you only can dream of and you would think it was fiction if you didn't know better. The circumstances surrounding the story are tragic, sad, happy. Honestly, there is no overall good or bad outcome in the end. There can't be. There just is an end and you have to take that for what it's worth and reflect on it. Personally, I find the story to be organically very existential in nature. Even if you "know the story" behind this book you don't "know the story" until you've read it from Randy's perspective. It's a mind blowing read..
