The group's next album, New American Gospel, was released in 2000. Produced by Devin Townsend, 2003's As the Palaces Burn was critically acclaimed, with Revolver magazine awarding it "Album of the Year".[1]

Their second full-length issued by Epic label, 2006's Sacrament, in its first week of release sold around 63,000 copies in the United States and peak at #8 on the Billboard 200 chart.[2] In July 2008, Lamb of God release the follow-up to Killadelphia entitled Walk with Me in Hell, the two-disc DVD peak at #2 on the Billboard Top Music Videos chart (their best-career position to date), selling over 13,000 copies in its first week of release in the US.[4] Walk with Me in Hell was certified gold by RIAA in August the same year.[5] Lamb of God's fifth studio album Wrath, was released through Epic in the US, and Roadrunner Records worldwide, on February 24, 2009. It debuted at #2 on the US Billboard 200 chart, selling nearly 68,000 copies.[6] Lamb of God released two more albums—Resolution (2012) and VII: Sturm und Drang (2015)—before parting ways with original drummer Chris Adler in 2019, who was replaced by Art Cruz.[7] The band's self-titled eighth studio album was released on June 19, 2020, making it their first full-length in five years and first release with Cruz.[8]
