August Burns Red - Guardians (April 3, 2020) • Page 2

On all streaming platforms now

 

Another bside or unreleased song coming tomorrow. I wish they would just announce the deluxe version already

 

They had the whole album up on Apple Music minus Pangaea once I saw their announcement on FB. I was able to listen to most of it before I went to work. Most of it has been taken off now. However, 6 other of the new tracks show up under my "Leveler (Deluxe Edition)" album and I can play those songs there. Strange.

 

did yall like Leveler?

 

Not as much as Constellations, but still very good. Started incorporating more melodies, but it was also the start of the gimmicky interludes

 

Ready. Guardians has become my favorite of theirs.

 

I stopped caring about this band when they showed support for Tim Lambesis

 

Same tbh

Even if I didn't I feel like they've done pretty much everything they stylistically can. Their brand of metalcore is fun but also old hat by now

 

for a while my proven (to me) theory with this band is that every other album is lesser for some reason. its pretty weird.

Leveler - worse
R&R - better
FIFAP - worse
PA - better
Guardians - worse

so im expecting a better one now

 

the guitarists need a brain shift on their riffs at this point. i think they could like do more 1/16 note flourishes to fix some of their problems. idk they should be listening to thrash and tech death or something for inspiration.

 

Exactly, I'm always like even are these guys gonna listen to some thrash and find some new inspiration lol

 

During the pandemic the re-recorded white washed and composure. They added new tuning’s and other elements.
