Lamb Of God's vocalist Randy Blythe has recently posted on his blog a short film called The Devil Is The Details which he shot during his trial in Czech Republic where he faced manslaughter charges and later was found not guilty and cleared of all the charges. With a memoir also coming up next year, you can watch the result of Blythe's experimental just under five minutes short film here which ends with "Rest in Peace, Daniel", the young man who died at that 2010 show in Prague after suffering head injuries.

Randy explained: "This is a movie I made in Prague during my trial. I filmed the footage with a Canon EOS 60D, edited it with Final Cut Pro X, and wrote the music using Reason. I wanted to release a slightly different version of the film right before my judgement was rendered by the court (the very last shot in this version was not there until after I was pronounced innocent). My idea was to show my mind set through film and music during the process of my trial, and have a more ambiguous ending heading into my final day in court. I did not know what was going to happen to me, only that I felt I was doing the right thing by being there. Working in a creative capacity during the trial helped me to remain calm- it is what I know how to do, so I wanted to share it with people. I showed the clip to my lawyer and he advised against releasing it until after the trial was over, thinking the authorities might not understand what I was trying to say with the movie. It is all over now, so here is my poor attempt to try and create art in a time of great personal uncertainty."

"Note - the Devil plays an important part in Czech fairy tales, and marionettes are a bit of Czech folk culture I came to love while I was there - the marionette hangs in my study now. The Devil is different in Czech fairy tales though, to my understanding - the puppet is representative of me, the way I viewed myself, the way I was viewed by society at different times - all sorts of things. It is not representative of evil - just wanted to clarify that."
