Lamb Of God Release Official Statement Regarding Randy Blythe

Lamb Of God have issued their first official statement regarding the arrest of their vocalist Randy Blythe in Prague, CZE last week. It reads as follows:

“First of all, thanks to everyone who has reached out in support of Randy and each of us in this terrible situation. It’s noted and very much appreciated.

We have been keeping our heads down and not speaking out due to the fluid nature of the situation and the constantly changing information that even we receive daily.

Within an hour things can do endless 180’s. It’s maddening to try and make heads or tails.

We’re taking the time to speak to you as it has been a significant period of time since this situation began and while nothing is immediately clear to any of us, we are not trying to keep anyone in the dark.

We have reached out and are making use of the resources we have acquired to help our brother who is still detained in Czech jail.

In the two years since, we were never notified of anything related to this incident.

Randy is our brother and we assure you, we are all staying very positive for him, working endlessly behind the scenes to provide any and all assistance possible.

The best we can do is to stay positive and continue to support our friend that we know is innocent.

We know that justice will prevail and we will continue to do our part to support our friend. – LAMB OF GOD

Donations are currently being sought to help out with the growing legal expenses related to the situation via the bands Facebook.

      I’ve spent a night in jail, it sucked. I couldn’t imagine being in jail in a foreign country, not knowing what the hell is ging to happen to you after being blindsided with manslaughter charges. Like him or not, I feel bad for the guy.

          Yea, I’ve never even been overseas. I like my sodomy like I like my beer, domestic.

        • Jail and prison are two different things. Right now, Blythe is in jail being detain. If the dude was in prison he’d be fucked, no pun intended…alright, maybe there was.

    • I have also spent a night in jail in the UK for making a false bomb threat, pretty fucking metal I know. But seriously shouldn’t Sony have reps in eastern Europe who can help him out, I mean they are signed to a major label right?

        Since this is becoming a confession thread, 10 years ago I was put in the “drunk tank” as they like to call it here in Australia. I was done for D&D. Best thing is they release you the next day, and the even better thing is they serve you bacon and eggs before release!

          Lucky Australians. All I’ve had in the states is a styrofoam cup filled with stale cheerios and a little carton of luke warm milk on the side.

        • I was in a holding cell for like 20 hours and didn’t even get offered a glass of water, what a load of shit! Saying that I plead guilty and got a police caution, dodged that bullet!

          I really wish Wookubus would reactivate the forum on this place. I have a feeling there would be some interesting threads.

      Can somebody send me a link to the original story of what happened and why he’s in jail? All ive heard about is someone dying after one of LoG’s shows or something along those lines.
