August Burns Red announce new album, Season Of Surrender

August Burns Red have announced their new studio album, Season Of Surrender.

Arriving on June 5 via Fearless (after a brief stint on SharpTone for previous LP Death Below), it features guest spots from The Devil Wears Prada’s Mike Hranica, Polaris’ Jamie Hails and Make Them Suffer.

Album number 11 will also include newly-released single The Nameless, which is very much not a Slipknot cover and is instead a song that bassist Dustin Davidson describes as a “hard-hitting, heavy bruiser that doesn’t let up for one moment. It combines classic ABR elements with dark moody technical rhythms, and fast-paced vocals to keep the intensity up for the full three minutes of the track. To me it showcases our roots of where we’ve come from, and the future path of where we’re heading.”

Vocalist Jake Luhrs adds that the track is about “not wasting your life away for the sake of acceptance and comfortability. Sometimes it takes detaching from what you’ve been told, or from the beliefs you are no longer aligned with, in order to face your own weaknesses. In doing so you can break free to live a life you are proud of.”
