AUGUST BURNS RED Releases New Video for “Backfire”

Grammy-nominated Lancaster five-piece AUGUST BURNS RED — JB Brubaker [lead guitar], Brent Rambler [rhythm guitar], Matt Greiner [drums], Jake Luhrs [vocals], and Dustin Davidson [bass] — have a big year in front of them.

The band will drop its new album Death Below on March 24 via SharpTone Records.

Pre-order it here.

“‘Backfire’ is a song that musically is a punch in the face, and we wrote the lyrics to follow suit,” says ABR. “The song is about choosing who you follow wisely, and not allowing people you’ve never met to influence the decisions you make in life. ‘Backfire’ ticks all the boxes for an ABR song.”

The album features guest spots from guitarist Jason Richardson, Jesse Leach of Killswitch Engage, JT Cavey of ERRA, and Spencer Chamberlain of Underoath.

ABR will also embark on the 20-Year Anniversary Tour, during which they will play material off all nine of their albums as they hit North America.

The tour’s first leg kicks off on February 15 in Silver Spring, MD, and runs through March 14 in Charlotte, NC. The second leg launches on April 13 in Philadelphia, PA, and wraps on May 12 in Quebec in Canada. The tour marks the first time the band has played in Canada since 2019.

The support acts are The Devil Wears Prada, and the Scottish band Bleed From Within, who is touring the U.S. for the first time. The bands will appear on both legs of the tour.
