I think this is because he has to constantly watch Willie and play along with him. Lead guitarist is a misnomer. They actually have to follow the rhythm player and that is what Mark is doing. He is constantly looking at Willie's guitar to make sure he is in time with what is coming next. IMO the lead is a much harder job.

I totally agree with you. I firmly believe that Mark and Willie's sound is the best in metal, but it's because I love lamb of God (I also like the sound of the Dominion with the Mark 5). Music is all about perception and people like different sounds\songs etc for different reasons. When you get to your "instrumental peak" it's all about preference. :)

They have different styles of playing, yet they can pull off the same riffs. Badasses

Mark is an underrated guitar player. There I said it

They really have that musicianship bond that great bands have. They are amazing.

Love tye way they just sync when they start and when they stop after a riff. As if they are connected somehow..spiritually. special special band

I damaged my ulnar nerve learning songs from ashes of the wake. I Call it Lamb of God syndrome. Hats of these absolute legends!

In every riff they play I can always here the drums in my head and that just goes to show how important are

Mark and Willie will make fine Jaeger pilots when the Kaiju's rise from the depths.

They work great together! mark and willie never disappoint every album they get better!

Best guitar duo ever they're so in sync

Amazing guitar riff in the world..!! Nice LOG..

4:15 Best Hourglass riff. Best song on Ashes of the Wake too. IMO. Been listening since 2004. First time seeing Lamb of God was at Sounds of the Underground in Saskatoon in 2005. What an amazing concert. They were the headliners and Devil Driver was the opening act. I was listing to a lot of Fury of the Makers Hand at the time. My two favourite bands at the time started and finished that concert. Still one of the funnest days of my life. 11 am till 1am tue next day. Gwar covered me in red and green dye too haha.

I love these videos of the band members just chilling and playing

It’s just so cool watching them play together

5:30-6:00 is how the ending solo of In Your Words should have been recorded on the album

Mark Morton's tone is absolutely unbelievable. Anybody know of an amp or setup than can get real close that tone? I am not getting a Mesa Boogie amp, they are insanely high, and plus I am not a recording artist, just playing for the fun of it. I recently got a Vox AV15G and it sounds amazing, but need some more brightness and gain to sound like Mark's tone.
