Heavy Music's Twitter King Randy Blythe (LAMB OF GOD) Says Goodbye To His Followers!

LAMB OF GOD's Randy Blythe WAS an avid Twitter user, and his rants WERE very famous within the Heavy Music Twitheads. Recently, Randy took it upon himself to discuss the state of the recording industry and how even established artists like MARILYN MANSON struggle to sell records. After entertaining all of his "followers" for quite some time, Blythe has pulled the plug on his Twitter account. Here’s Randy Blythe’s final tweet, as re-posted by @LambofGodNews, posted minutes before he deleted his infamous @LambVox account:

"Actually, I’ve changed my mind. After a few short hours of no twitter on my phone, I feel much better. Although I believe social networking can be used in a positive manner, I also believe it is for the most part a gigantic waste of time. Especially for me. It doesn’t hurt that it’s kinda addictive, & I certainly have that aspect of my personality.

"So peace, I’m fucking outta here. If you see someone on Twitter or Facebook claiming to be me, don’t believe them, because I’ve never had Facebook and in about three minutes I won’t have Twitter. So it was nice to meet some of y’all. I wish you well. Now I’m gonna go read a good book."

Peace- D. Randall Blythe PS- #Randonesia will never die!”
