New August Burns Red
New song today. So excited. Hopefully they won't wait until midnight.

Cd is called Constellations and releases July 14th. Pre-orders are up if you're interested.

It's supposed to be a lot more guitar driven...hopefully a tad less chug-chug-chug....

New song is called Thirty and Seven.

It's quite good in my opinion.

Another new song. Not sure how I feel about the seven second solo. But a very good song. Vocals are better than on Messengers I think.

I liked how short (or nonexistent?) the breakdown in Thirty and Seven is. (only listened to it once)
I was worried Messengers would be their only great album but based on that song I was wrong.

When you call anything with harsh vocals "screamo", it makes as much sense as calling anything with distorted guitar "heavy metal".

Blech, vocals suck. Both songs sound like every other band in this genre. I've never really been a fan of these guys.

Have you checked out their first full length, Thrill Seeker, thats a fantastic album.

Third new song up.

It's pretty wild. This may be the cd that makes me really enjoy guitar solos.

Also. Review at Decoy music.

Stream for new album is up although I got it via a leak yesterday.

It's crazy good. They've improved just about everything from Messengers - breakdowns, songwriting, intros, vocals (somewhat), and one song has Tommy Rogers from BTBAM doing guest harsh and clean vocals.

Have they gone a bit less overkill on the breakdowns? I mean they have way better breakdowns then a lot of bands (like As I Lay Dying...) but they do it way to much imo.

Yeah. Breakdowns are fewer and usually shorter, if my first two listens are enough to go by.
There's also a lot of clean and/or slow sections, which makes it more interesting to listen to.

SWEET!

I love BTBAM.

I'm listening to Thirty and Seven right now. I like August Burns Red and their shows are always high octane, but I can't really listen to it for any extended period of time. I think I get bored or just uninterested after a while. But if I really concentrate its some great stuff.

This sounds interesting... definitely nice to hear some different ideas on these songs.. While I did enjoy "Messengers", it really all sounded the same to me. Good to hear some variety on these new tracks.

This cd is so different from Messengers. Really. Oh my. And so good. Breakdowns avoid repetition to me because they almost always have a cool lead over them. So good.
