August Burns Red Announce Leveler 10th Anniversary Tour

August Burns Red has announced a tour for the 10th anniversary of their newly re-recorded album released in 2011, Leveler. The band has been re-recording older material including some slight variations and renditions of tracks as well. With the re-release of Leveler the band recorded a new song simply entitled X. The rest of the album is re-recorded with a very modern August Burns Red touch with the additional treat of some guest vocals. Members from bands such as Fit For A King, Trivium, and Periphery make appearances on the album. While we hear vocals from members of Fit For A King and Trivium, we get Periphery guitarist Misha Mansoor laying down some guitar for the re-recording of Pangaea. With venues opening up and summer around the corner, August Burns Red have announced dates and bands for their Leveler 10th anniversary tour. The bands that will be following the band on this tour will be Fit For A King, ERRA, and Like Moths To Flames. Hopefully with Fit For A King on the tour, we get Ryan Kirby on some Poor Millionaire live performances. VIP packages for August Burns Red’s 10th Anniversary Leveler Tour can be found here.

New Music From The Leveler Anniversary Tour

When it comes to new music, Like Moths To Flames just released an instrumental version of their 2020 album, No Eternity In Gold. While I don’t expect them to play any instrumentals live, it sure does increase the hype behind the album and to see the songs live regardless. ERRA has also released a self-titled album this year, featuring 12 songs that I’m sure we’re going to at least hear some of on this tour. Finally, Fit For A King has released the most music since the pandemic started so I’m sure we’ll hear songs live for the first time from every single band on the tour.

Every band on the tour fits within the same lines of metalcore with their own twist on the genre, making this a truly incredible tour that I personally can’t wait to attend. It’s hard to remember the last concert I went and while concerts may never be the same, it’s an incredible feeling to have them again.
