When discussing his memoir, 'Desolation: A Heavy Metal Memoir', LAMB OF GOD guitarist Mark Morton spoke about his experience writing the book.
The memoir, co-written with Ben Opipari and released in June 2024 via Hachette Books, explores Morton's life in music and personal struggles with addiction.
In a recent LiveSigning discussion with Opipari to promote the book, Morton revealed that the hardest chapter for him to write was about the passing of his daughter.
He wrote about the loss on the song 'Embers' which came out on LAMB OF GOD's 2015 album, VII: Sturm Und Drang.
Morton also talked about the chapter that was 'the most fun' for him to write, saying he enjoyed exploring memories of the BURN THE PRIEST era of LAMB OF GOD and early high school bands.
Morton co-founded LAMB OF GOD in 1994.
The band's tenth studio album, Into Oblivion, will be released on March 13 via Epic.
