August Burns Red

American metalcore outfit August Burns Red has built a reputation for intricate, high‑energy compositions that blend technical riffing, melodic breakdowns, and soaring vocal harmonies. Emerging in the mid‑2000s, the band’s sound combines aggressive thrash‑inspired guitar work with polished production, positioning them as a staple of modern metal. Known for relentless live shows, the group delivers precise musicianship and crowd‑engaging moments, often featuring extended breakdown sections and dynamic setlists that span their extensive catalog. Their concerts are praised for tight performance and anthemic sing‑along choruses. The band is set to embark on a 30‑date international tour beginning Sep 27, 2026 at Freo.Social in Fremantle, Australia, followed by stops across Australia, New Zealand, the United States and Canada through Dec 8, 2026.
