August Burns Red are a super talented band, but their last two albums just didn’t cut the mustard for me. After hearing the masterpiece that was Constellations, I knew it would be very difficult to top it, and the band have had shimmers of hope, but have still not surpassed it. However, I’m always happy when the band releases new music, because even if the album isn’t as good, it’s still some very solid metalcore. Now the band are back, and with a super heavy song, which should please everyone. Check it after the jump!
This song sounds more like Constellations than anything they’ve done since, and that’s promising. If the band could keep the pace throughout the record, this release can turn out to be an absolutely monstrous beast. I’m very excited to hear the rest of the album, because I know, at the very least, I’ll have some super quality metalcore to jam to. The album is entitled Found In Far Away Places and is out June 30th, but if you preorder here, you get this song now, so don’t wait! We’ll have more news as we get it, and you can expect a review from me in the coming weeks.
