New American Gospel is the debut full-length studio album by American heavy metal band Lamb of God.

Remastered and repackaged with four bonus tracks, exclusive liner notes from the band, and the video for the proven classic 'Black Label', alongside a re-imaging facelift from longtime band collaborator Ken Adams, Lamb Of God's now famous debut album finally gets the treatment it deserves in 2006. The music on New American Gospel has quickly become both essential and classic metal material, having already helped to revitalize and re-inspire a once stale American metal scene and assist in usher in this decade's New Wave of American Heavy Metal and forever leaving its mark on the worldwide metal scene.

Lamb of God "New American Gospel" in the band's Prosthetic Records debut. Revolver magazine called New American Gospel one of the "69 Greatest Heavy Metal Albums of All Time". NME said the album "harks back to the days when Slayer ruled the kingdom of metal with speedy riffs and nihilism", and described the sound as "ferocious".

Kerrang! said that New American Gospel "is dawn for the most brutally aggressive band since Pantera." CMJ described New American Gospel as "grindcore and death metal for the hardcore kids". Exclaim! compared New American Gospel to bands such as Pantera and Meshuggah, noted its "truly killer snare drum sound", and described the album in general as "a thoroughly satisfying listen and an innovative, real, heavy and scary metal album".
