As I Lay Dying have scheduled a performance at Zappa in Tel Aviv, Israel on March 23. The booking is already drawing attention online, as the appearance comes amid the ongoing war in Gaza — a situation that has prompted strong reactions across the music community regarding artists performing in the region.
The show marks another instance where the band’s touring decisions have generated debate. Previously, the group faced backlash after announcing dates in Russia following that country’s invasion of Ukraine..

Didn’t see this coming 🤣. AILD has and always will suck.
Dude will do anything but take accountability from their fuckups to stay relevant
Why do people keep agreeing to join this band? lol
Corey Edward Staley Money and career stepping stone
Yeah if you want that career stepping stone to say “Toss me across the pond!, then you’ll have no opportunities ever!”
John Martinson yeah, basically.
Corey Edward Staley because they are iconic despite your opinions of a member of the band. Ronnie Radke is one of the biggest pieces of trash in the world and falling in reverse is one of the biggest bands out there right now
Corey Edward Staley because not everyone is an antisemite posing as a liberal
Tim Lambesis is the metalcore goat
Joseph Hasse yikes
This isn’t untrue it’s just also not untrue that he’s also the metalcore murder for hire goat
More like the metalcore joke 🤣
Chili Dean bruh, you’re a retard who says “cracker”. You’re a joke.
Joseph Hasse *Howard Jones.
Connor Andjelkovic 🙌
Connor Andjelkovic Howard Jones hasn’t been involved in a great metal album as the lead vocalist in almost 20 years. The last aild album with tim was fantastic as was the one before that. Tim’s been way more consistent and relevant with the quality of music he’s put out.
Joseph Hasse Tim Lambesis is a metalcore goat that beats his two hot wives, kicks his poor innocent dog, and plays in totalitarian regimes presently erasing people off the map.
Joseph Hasse lend him your wife and will see
Jesus fucking Christ tell me this is a joke
Somebody boo this man
Thomas Black boooooo

How morally bankrupt do you need to be to be in a band with him?
Tim Lambesis making good decisions challenge. Impossible
I mean from one criminal to another I guess
Wow
Tim Yeung didn’t go to Russia maybe he’ll bail on Israel too 😂

Seems to be the place for lunatic criminals these days.
YOU are the one continuing the controversy.
The band is doing just fine.
Brandon Cecil your wife regularly cheats on you
Alphonso Cino it damn sure isn’t with your sissy ass
Brandon Cecil well you’re right there. I’m not local enough unfortunately
Alphonso Cino no need to act like you’re not super gay. Go ahead and tell me your pronouns, and food allergies. I know you’re dying to.
Brandon Cecil I like how you haven’t once denied the accusation and instead try to deflect. Lol
Alphonso Cino I like how you hide your face, and name before keyboard attacking people for liking a band you don’t like. What are those pronouns again?
Brandon Cecil U/cuck
Alphonso Cino pasty virgin who changed ze/zers name to sound ethnic.
Brandon Cecil maybe you’ll feel different after you see the video of Tim hitting is dog.
Jordan Forrer I’m pretty sure her name is dany. 😂
Nah, I’m just playing. I’m definitely buying the new album when it drops
Tim must be interested in getting involved in sex trafficking and genocide now
As I Lay Dying classic subhuman trash behavior as expected
🔥🔥🔥🔥🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Of course they are.
So they’re all pieces of shit then.. not just Tim
Christian band?
Matthew Slocum says who?
Aleksander Rybarczyk I asked the question first.
Matthew Slocum cool I dont care, we are not in school. And no, they aren’t
Aleksander Rybarczyk they sold themselves on the idea of being a Christian band, Tim admitted it himself. He’s just another right-wing grifter.
Lee Soady Tim does not know what he is anymore, except a huge joke.
Matthew Slocum Well, Lambesis claims to be a Christian – which explains why he tried to have his wife killed and also abuses animals.
I mean… That’s pretty normal behaviour for a Christian in America. They do Christianity differently over there.
Matthew Slocum Just cosplaying as one
Israel willing to host a band fronted by a known predator and a sure??? 😲 Also, skies are blue ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Think these guys should just call it a day, to be honest. They’ve always been a predictable, uninteresting, by-numbers metalcore band and it’s bizarre to me that countless other acts in that genre who are way more creative like Poison The Well or Misery Signals don’t sell anywhere near as many records.
Lambesis is also a fucking prick – a typically hypocritical ‘Christian’ who tried to have his wife killed and was later filmed kicking his dog. I remember Cult Of Luna’s frontman speaking out against Tim’s behaviour and being met with a chorus of ‘Cult Of who?’ comments by ignorant AILD fans.
Cult Of Luna, incidentally, are far better, far more creative and far heavier than AILD, and much, much better live – the fact that so many AILD fans don’t even know who they are says it all. They probably all think Slipknot are the heaviest band of all time.
Pretty sure if he could make a concert at Olympiastadion in 1936, he would go all in😄
Wtf
Playing the Gaza Strip next?
Eric Swartz what’s left of it.
😞
What a horrible thing to joke about.
Cal Morena it’s not a joke. It’s as absurd as them playing Russia.
Seneca Mark Andrew Homeyer stop giving press to men who are literally convicted in a court of law and incarcerated for abusing women
Ashley Christine Take those obnoxiously fake ass duck lips, somewhere else!
A convict will find his rightful place in pedoland.
Interestingly enough I’ve seen Behemoth, Arch Enemy and Disturbed (which isn’t surprising) in Tel Aviv. I know Ozzy, Nine Inch Nails, Kreator and Alestorm have played there as well. It’s not really that uncommon for bands to play in Israel. However those shows were insanely expensive. I’m sure more have played there but those are the ones I know of
Dennis Vaughn maybe back when it was a socially acceptable place to play.
Who decided it was socially unacceptable? Do what you want. Play music where you want. From what I understand. Most people there are like “I’m not paying $120 to see as I lay dying “ 😂 all I’m saying is it’s not like this is a new thing and everyone seems surprised a band is playing there.
My wife just told me Rage Against the Machine played there. That even surprised me. It’s not like people just started hating Israel a few years ago.
Timmy Wiley socially acceptable by whom? You understand, flake, being a minority sucks
סלבה ריסנברג by the rest of the world that isn’t falling for your zio bullshit that’s by who buddy
Timmy Wiley well, if the rest of the world is a few European woke and muslim countries
Timmy Wiley why isn’t it?
Timmy Wiley lmao anyone who would say something like that would never have considered Israel an acceptable place to perform from the start…
The people hating on Tim for a crime he got punished for probably turn a blind eye for old mate in Nazi to Prevail
Reece Louden not what this is about
Reece Louden nah, that shit sucks too.
Reece Louden you’re the one turning a blind eye on a man who would have killed his wife if he wasn’t so incompetent at it. Also fuck Slaughter to Prevail. Not even sure what you’re trying to accomplish with this weird-ass comment
Cunts
Can’t wait for their Pyongyang dates!!
Not controversy, Genocide
Probably needs more money to hire another hit man
I guess if there’s a country where hiring a hitman to kill your wife is accepted…
Skum
“Why don’t people like my band!?”
Are they just playing in countries that violate human rights? I guess a full American tour is next.
I mean, it’s not like Tim hasn’t also violated human rights
Jeni Fitts sorta my point. They are ethically aligned.
Absolutely
Why is this controversial? Even if Israel is committing a genocide (which it isn’t), they’re playing for the fans – not the government.
Yisroel Goodman oh boy are you uninformed
Jeni Fitts Inform us oh enlightened one, you clearly know so much
Daniel Ravid if you don’t already know, you’re never going to learn, genocide denierMedia: https://www.facebook.com/10226324805700480/videos/1418119430050106
Yisroel Goodman pardon the fuck out of me?
Yisroel Goodman the fans love Bibi!
George Tanasa that explains a lot, actually 🙃
Yisroel Goodman agree 100% I stand with Israel. It’s the chosen land of Adonai Elohim and Yeshua the Messiah
What controversy? Jew haters commit hate crimes. Not remotely controversial.
Makes sense, that is where disgraced people often escape to
Well, since both Tim and Israel want to murder without consequence – they’re made for each other!
It is Palestine ✊
What’s that?
Brandon Dempster no it isn’t. Go check your history first.
As A Goy Dying
Julian Martinez nazi cunt.
Just gotta do North Korea to complete the trifecta!
Don’t even compare. North Korea isn’t a place for murderers and rapists ike “israel”.
As I lay supporting genocide
As I lay killing children
As I lay sucking American cock
As I lay sucking israeli cock
As I lay licking boots
As I lay being a piece of garbage.
I used to love the early albums but now its all erased.
Fuck you and fuck Isreal!!!!
(FYI its not anti-semitic to wish ill upon isreal.)
DEATH DEATH TO THE IDF!!!!
As they all lay dying
Tim’s on the “Does the worst thing every single time” world tour, huh?
Clint Johnson 🤡
The guy that has video online of him beating his dog? Right dude.
Whats the controversy i don’t get it lol
Fvck Israel

Fitting. I didnt need to see Tim Lambesis turn into the type of loser that signs his band on to play in Israel, a country presently busy erasing Gaza and The West Bank off the map. I wasn’t sure if he already turned into that type of loser that beats his two hot wives or the type that kicks his poor innocent loyal dog afterwards. I assume from his outfit he still looks at himself in the mirror.
Of course israel
Holy shit might as well just play on the island at this point
H@m@s could do the funniest thing rn
