@@MetalGuitarTimo True that, but they kinda lost it at some point imo. Their music is still good, don't get me wrong, but ATR is not as "metalcore" as they used to be. RIP Oli.
Parkway Drive's Horizons album defined my metalcore tastes for me along with ABR's Messengers. Respect for KSE, ATR, and AILD for pioneering the distictive sound but I just like the those better.
ABR is amazing. They’ve had such a mature progression in their music over the years. They haven’t abandoned their roots and alienated any significant portion of their fans. I don’t listen to new ABR and think “man I really miss Messengers and Constellations”. I love that when you go see them they play all of their music. They don’t put out a 10 song record and NEVER play 4-5 of the tracks. It’s always a different experience with some familiar stuff thrown in.
You sound like one of the fans who actually think their last two albums were good. They've been making the same album since Phantom Anthem. This new album sounds exactly like the last two already with this single. I 100% miss messengers and constellations sounding albums and so do alot of ABR fans.
@@jotarokujo4571 idk man, I still hear a lot of the same since Messengers. I feel like their music moving through the years has been a mature progression. Very little people are sitting around having the same types of conversations about ABR as we are about bands like Parkway Drive and Architects
@Matt K It's slowly starting to happen. Most of the people in the ABR fan group is starting to take notice of the same generic sound every album. They're my favorite band and I haven't enjoyed in album by them since FIFAP and even then that album is OK.
ABR have been able to stay in their own genre, they have always managed to renew themselves without having to change genre like Architects or other. But their music has absolutely not matured. Always the same lyrics, the same structures, the same breakdowns. Only their approach has evolved, that's why they are still so good after all these years.
Jake ( the singer) gave me a shirt after remembering me for like four different shows in Michigan. It said RUN/ABR like the RUN/DMC shirt (from early hip-hop/rap group of the same name). If I remember correctly he said it was rare, and he wasn't lying cause I have never seen that shirt anywhere else again. I ended up giving it to a dear friend who still has it, and this was like 8 years ago. Love those guys.
Can we just give it to them for being so consistent ! Love it that they don't change it up - still using 6 strings in drop b- riffing it up with leads and zeros. ABR for the win here.
Depends, sometimes consistency can be a good or a bad thing. Not saying either is right or wrong, but bands experimenting and trying different things isnt wrong.
I got to talk to JB as he was getting ready to walk off stage (it was a very very small venue in my hometown) and he was super nice. Met a shirtless Jake outside told him how great the set was and how much I love their music. Was able to get a picture with him. Other than the time I bummed Spencer Charnas a cigarette that was the best band interaction I’ve ever had.
@@OneNidim they’ve been a Christian band since conception I believe and have always strayed away from it. It’s impressive how well they write their music and how complex it can be without swearing.
Even though they don't tune to drop F with 8 strings, ABR has some of the most easily identifiable breakdowns in the metal scene, and they're ALWAYS so fucking hard. Their guitar and bass work is insane, the drummer always slaps, and the vocals are always so good. Been listening to them since Messengers, and they've been so fucking good ever since.
the song is amazing front to back. When you dive into the lyrics, it seems to be a story of a person lamenting how horrible this person on the death bed was to them in life, but how they are striving to move on from all the pain and put it all to rest, with conflicted feelings of love and hate for the dying man. super raw and super awesome, as always, ABR delivers more than just a song, they deliver a profound and relatable message. they just keep growing as people and musicians, and i'm hear for it
August Burns Red is my sh!t. Back in 2005, my gf was obsessed with metal so she asked for their album “Thrillseeker” for Christmas. We broke up before then so I kept the CD and randomly decided to open it the following summer. Fell in love the first 10 seconds. Found out they were playing a show 8 miles away the next month so I went. Mind you this was when they were basically nobody so they played for a crowd of 17 people in some run down coffee shop but I got to hang out with them and have a beer after the show. I told them they were going to be huge one day and that I was going to get an ABR tattoo when I left there that night. I ended up walking to the closest tattoo shop a couple blocks away. It will forever be one of my favorite tattoos and my favorite story to tell. ❤
Besides parkway preforming live in flipflops and Killswitch w a cape. This band w the button down dress shirts is just awesome. Oh an zacky w a bowtie.
@@SlothoftheSun agreed, hymn of a broken man still has a special spot for me. I just graduated high school and that became one of my favorite albums, then nothing for over a decade. I was ecstatic when they released their second.
saw them live 3 days ago alongside novelists fr and bury tomorrow. got to talk with matt greiner (drummer of ABR), such a kind hearted person. to this day, my neck still hurts but i have no regrets. :)
ABR is one of those comfort bands that you know are not going to switch it up much, maybe tweak a few things here and there, but it's the Ol' Reliable. Always good, top-tier quality metalcore, that's just going to rip your scalp off. Fucking great feat from Jesse, as well. Very satisfied, as usual.
I saw these guys together on tour last year in detroit. Ive been high on abr since my childhood because off mat greiner. The thing i respect about them is their abilitly to chamge as a band but also, not change at all. Still amazingly technical, a lot of screams, unpredictable breakdowns, i love everything they have ever done
Really liked the death metal part in the beginning. I'd like to see them go more in a blackened death metal direction. I think they'd be very good at it.
Dude- August Burns Red, As Blood Runs Black, Veil of Maya, and After The Burial is where I got started with metalcore and where I'll stay. I'm so glad to see August Burns Red stick around and remain consistent though.
A while ago I went to see them in Montreal. Before the show, I stopped to eat at a small restaurant right next to the Metropolis (where they were playing) and next to me I hadn't realized that Jake Luhrs was sitting right at the next table. When I realized it, I remained frozen for a few moments before chatting with him and asking him for an autograph which he agreed to give me. And besides, after the show I grabbed Matt Greiner's drum stick and it's still sitting on one of my desks. A very beautiful memory of my life! :)
I think it would be nice if the band implements clean vocals in one of their choirs. Jesse Leach's clean vocals gave the song a total change, it doesn't even sound like August Burn Red.
I saw ABR like 10 years ago or so, and got to meet the band after the show. It was crazy to me to see how aggressive the vocalist was and the n after the show, he was the happiest friendliest guy I ever met.
Coming back to this video after seeing ABR for my first ever metal show. Absolutely phenomenal performers, and extremely class people. Matt threw one of his drumsticks into the crowd after his solo and I caught it, so he met me after the show to sign it for me and get a pic. A night I won’t ever forget!
Love the BTBAM-y vibes and the 2010s metalcore feel. ABR live is easily one of the best shows I've ever been to, the crowd was WILD and the performance was tight. 10/10
Okay, as an older fellow and Canuck: This song and video is a hot date between August Burns Red and Protest the Hero!!!! Its not just the vocalist, the very composition of the song and melody takes me back to 10 years ago.
Yeah, especially after the parkway stuff… yikes As much as I hate how much architects have fallen in terms of creativity and complexity, their new album is at least a fun listen when you are hanging out with friends who are not into metal by default… New Parkway on the other hand, is hot garbage. And it pains me so much, because earlier parkway was my favourite core band and to see them fall to such depths… What can I say… Their next record can only be better than Darker Still…
@nik your lil Bitmoji boulders for that second nasty drum fill build up was 100% accurate. Look over at my wife and say: "This is about to get nasty thicc"
Basicly, most of metal song on my playlist is from nik reaction..but for this song, its seem that i hear it before nik reacted..its feel like a new archivement unlocked..🤣🤣
ABR is one of the few bands where you are actually guaranteed to get quality metalcore bangers every single time without fail, the consistency is amazing IMO, they also rip it hard live and seem like dope dudes
btw nik there album death below comes out Friday March 24,2023 fyi the album will have 12 tracks and cool collaborations with other band members from different metalcore bands
Its a very abr song. Which is not a bad thing. They have the creativity in writing. Can't wait to hear the song ft jason richardson. Should be interesting
I can’t WAIT for J.R. to feature. He’s in such a different sub genre of metal so that combo should be really cool. Jason Richardson is one of my favorite guitarists.
*best metalcore band with Christians in it* Just saying they haven’t actually been a Christian band for around ten years due to the fact that the majority of the band members actually aren’t believers. They still keep a positive message and Christian themes still show up in their lyrics sometimes, but as a Christian myself I think this is a better approach than trying to force it on the other band members. They made their choice and spreading positive messages is better than ripping the band apart over beliefs.
I used to love the old stuff, thrillseeker messengers and constellations of course, but they just aren’t my thing anymore. As consistent as they are, I haven’t enjoyed their progression as much. There just hasn’t been a lot to keep me interested in their style so I just give some of it a quick listen and move on. Still this is a good track and I’ll always appreciate a band who doesn’t try to go a crazy new direction and alienate the fans who made them who they are today. Great guys. Great live show too.
Saw them live the other weekend and they came on stage doing their Chop Suey cover, if that wasn't how to hype a crowd up then I dunno what is! Everyone was singing along loving life!
I was hoping they would do this, its been a tradition everytime I saw them live Chop Suey was played on the speakers right before they get on and they ALWAYS let the song finish before coming on. And the crowd is super into it every single time. God I love these guys

F yeah arguably the best in the biz

I about shat my pants the first time I heard Ancestry. I didn't know they had Jesse Leach and I fucking lost it it was such a surprise lmao
Legends. Saw them a few months ago - one of the best shows I've seen. They are all ridiculously talented.
I will see them today, cant wait :D

they said in a fb reply "oh they're coming"
@@callmesteevo3342 Awesome!!
I’ve always recognized ABR as the best metalcore there is. I didn’t start listening to them until recently and I hate that I didn’t start sooner

Thats most metal vocalists in general.
Got SUPER excited, then I found out this video is a year old. -sad noises-
This is ABR meets Killswitch and I absolutely loved it 😍
This song gave me heavy colors era between the buried and me vibes with the offbeats and guitar riffs. I love it
This song slaps such a sick guest appearance with Jesse I love both bands, Dustin’s bass would make for a sick 6 string guitar
That bass tone sounds so darkglass
Really cool to see ABR trying a sort of different style of metal while maintaining there metalcore signature sound. Sick stuff.
i literally saw them live two weeks ago and i am MAD they didnt debut this
ABR is actually from a couple towns over from me! Glad to see the local guys still doing it as good as they used to!
Love all of this.... but the bass...the bass is killing it!
August Burns Red has never disappointed me. They are so consistently good and incredibly talented. I love every album.
It’s about his relationship with his father. And it’s probably one of the songs that mean the most to me ever.

Saw Btbam and Abr at the Fillmore in San Francisco almost 20 years ago and is in my top 5 best shows/ venue's I've ever been to
Somehow the imagery with the hospital bed and the pushing-things-off-a-table strongly reminds me of the Pain Remains videos
YES. I am from ABR’s hometown. It’s nice to see another PA band.
The Jesse feature here was perfect IMO. Has ABR ever released a bad album!? I don’t think they’re capable of doing so lmfao.

I always look forward to Dustin’s vocals being sprinkled in throughout the album they don’t get talked about enough!
this is really a masterpiece
i'm looking for more metalcore along the lines of Parkway Drive's KWAS and Horizons, preferably with a lot of highs
any recommendations?
I'm picking up what this song is dropping
I listened to this blind and couldn't tell it was August until the instrumental, they did a solid job with this. Sounds much more mature now.
