August Burns Red have signed to Fearless Records and will go into the studio later this year to record a new album—set for release in 2015.
ABR guitarist JB Brubaker comments, “We are all extremely excited to be a part of the Fearless family. Fearless has done an amazing job building a community within the label as well as a bunch of our friends bands and careers. We can’t wait to see what they can do with ABR. I am about 5 songs deep into writing the new record and I feel like it’s some of the most creative and heavy stuff we have ever written. 2015 is gonna be a great year for August Burns Red! See you on the road!”
Fearless Records president Chris Foitle adds, “Our team could not be happier with ABR‘s decision to join Fearless. We’ve watched this band continue to raise the bar with each release, solidifying themselves as one of the most relevant and influential bands in the scene. Their songwriting, work ethic, and attitude are the perfect fit for Fearless, and we’re looking forward to a very bright future with them.”
The band’s latest video for ‘Beauty In Tragedy’ is released late last month, the clip can be seen below. The track comes off August Burns Red‘s fifth album, “Rescue & Restore”, which sold nearly 26,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to land at position No. 9 on The Billboard 200 chart. The record arrived in stores on June 25 via Solid State Records. Our review can be read here.
