Lamb Of God frontman Randy Blythe has been released from prison in the Czech Republic and is headed home to Richmond, Virginia, reports Richmond's WTVR CBS 6. The band's manager, Larry Mazor, confirmed to the news channel that Blythe has been released on bond.

Blythe had been held in a Czech prison since June over suspicion of manslaughter, stemming from a May 24th, 2010 incident in Prague when a fan who had repeatedly come onstage was pushed, fell and eventually died.

“Youth Knows No Pain”

Lykke Li | 2011

“Like on 'Youth Knows No Pain' — we are the ones that should demonstrate, because we can take it,” Likke Li said. “We can pierce ourselves, take Ecstasy, dance all night and still go to work at our McDonald's jobs.” Despite the hedonistic sentiment in the song, the Swedish singer also admitted in hindsight her youth had repercussions. “I remember when I was 18-19 and feeling that I know it all,” Li said. “I always feel that I know it all. But that song is about realizing you don’t, and reflecting, ‘Boy, if I only knew what would follow.’”
