Lacuna Coil reveal new single ft Lamb Of God's Randy Bylthe, announce UK Fall shows

Italian goth metal outfit Lacuna Coil have dropped a new single, "Hosting The Shadow," featuring Randy Blythe from Lamb of God. This follows their recent collaboration with Ash Costello of New Years Day on "In The Mean Time."

Lacuna Coil shared the following:

'Hosting The Shadow' is a trip through light and dark, where silence reveals its hidden secrets. Obscure moments can become occasions to evolve, to learn to master one's own shadow – which is crucial in order to prevail. Randy Blythe did an incredible job on this track, we absolutely adore his voice and his evil laugh! Our admiration for him is infinite and to have him as a guest on this song is a dream come true. Partnering with a friend you respect immensely, that also kicks ass on stages around the world: it doesn't get any better than this. We're looking forward to the day we can perform 'Hosting The Shadow' live together!

Lamb Of God's Randy Blythe added:

I was super excited when Lacuna Coil asked me to sing on a song with them - not only am I a big fan of their music, they are truly beautiful souls who have been like family to me for 20 years now. We've played shows together all over the world, and I've always wanted to jump onstage and sing with them - I can't wait until it actually happens with 'Hosting the Shadow'!

Additionally the group has announced tour dates for UK & Ireland scheduled for October of this year. Support will be handled by Blind Channel.
