August Burns Red - “The European Phantom Anthem” Tour - Support: Betraying the Martyrs, Wage War

By personally aiming beyond your perceived potential, you can truly grow. That’s been the case every time AUGUST BURNS RED record an album, and it’s quietly turned the Pennsylvania quintet - John “JB” Brubaker (lead guitar), Brent Rambler (rhythm guitar), Matt Greiner (drums), Jake Luhrs (lead vocals), and Dustin Davidson (bass) - into a GRAMMY Award nominated heavy music torchbearer.

Their journey began back in 2003 with marathon jam sessions on a farm belonging to Greiner’s family in the egg refrigerator. Embracing a diehard Rust Belt work ethic, they tirelessly pushed towards the top of heavy music with a series of critically acclaimed albums and countless gigs. A hard-earned high watermark, 2015’s ‘Found In Far Away Places’ marked their second consecutive Top 10 debut on the Billboard Top 200. The single ‘Identity’ notched a GRAMMY Award nod in the category of “Best Metal Performance.”

A streaming juggernaut, both ‘Identity’ and ‘Ghosts’ (feat. Jeremy McKinnon) crossed the 3-million mark on Spotify. When it came time to record their eighth full-length ‘Phantom Anthem’ (Fearless Records) with long-time producers Carson Slovak and Grant McFarland, the game didn’t change. The musicians put their heads down and rallied around the same shared goal, uncorking a barrage of infectious intensity, the boys augmented and amplified the touchstones of their signature style on ‘Phantom Anthem’. The musical equivalent of a clenched fist haymaker, the grooves hit harder, the hooks blaze brighter, and the instrumentation ignites even more intricacy.
