When shit goes to hell, I don't drink, I don't get high and I don't complain. I simply blast ABR.

[@MysticPhonk-cp1rc]

Never anything wrong with turning to music rather than substances, good on you guy :)

[@WhitePigeon1986]

I read your comment to the tune of "She Don't Use Jelly" by the Flaming Lips. Try it. You'll thank me later.

[@andrewhess1880]

Amen

[@goshtamoshta]

Bless you!

[@jimstrong8]

I get high and blast abr, it's good after a few cones

[@MaRsw1]

I was reading the official tabs I grabbed from Sheet Happens Publishing, fun fact: 01:06 the background bip is morse code for "I've never felt so alone".The more you know...

[@MaaddCow]

+Mars Wings Damn that's dope as fuck

[@lilcurrio]

Mars Wings That's sick

[@MaRsw1]

Yup, I have two other tab books from the same publisher (Unearth and Intervals) and there is no annotations whatsoever. JB is the man!

[@THEGAMINGHELP101]

This is when you know that a band truly puts there sole in to making music not like the mainstream crap that gets put out these days.

[@noahspree6718]

That's fascinating! I love it when producers put so much attention to details in songs

[@KevinCorkran]

there's so much going on in this song, I absolutely love it

[@WesleyShark]

One of the best songs on the album easily. The soaring guitars... Just lovely. #augustburnsred #foundinfarawayplaces

[@WesleyShark]

+Nathan Nicholson yesssss

[@xDrikenx]

Easily !

[@alexandershmyga1775]

This is the new level of metalcore. I don't know for sure, but based on what i heared so far it is the most technically advanced and inventive metalcore album i ever came across. it is like Dream Theater playing metalcore all of a sudden. MASTERPIECE)

[@prestonjarrett]

+alexander shmyga Check BTBAM brah

[@slipknnnot]

+Preston Jarrett Not even in the same league in my honest opinion.

[@caseyakasubzero]

August burns red is a metalcore dreamtheater that why I love them they are so melodic

[@grandemcfloofin8376]

​@@slipknnnot i know this is 7 years later and I hope you're doing fine, but I personally think they're both great bands.

[@jlut9724]

ABR is Family

[@briv22]

i think we can all agree this album is AMAZING

[@archangelshiro]

yeah but not nearly enough breakdowns. Or guitar riffs. Or scream singing. Or bass licks. It's just not there, ya know?

[@JDFHK]

@@archangelshiro I felt the same but the album has grown on me tremendously. RR still my fav with Phantom and Constellations close behind. This album is slowly closing in though.

[@checkurwristwatch9739]

Idc, the drums on this song are fucking insane

[@mojoprovo5487]

August Burns Red... I have been listening and studying the lyrics of this band for a year now which in my case ABR has been the only music I have listened to in that year and I never get tired of these songs. every single song brings a certain... feeling to me that I wouldn't trade for a thing this music helps me cry and be stronger and look past all the problems we face in life and have brought a new sense of security in our Lord Almighty and on life in general thank you ABR love you guys

[@mojoprovo5487]

gives me chills

[@kevinmojo874]

2 years strong!!

[@202drummerboy]

TRUE FAN !

[@JDFHK]

Amen, brother

[@JojoKemified]

You've given up on us You've taken all I've made and all I've become You've given up on us Just another empty promise by those I love Pushing me down flat on the ground trying to escape the pain I needed you to meet me half way But I'm left abandoned with nothing more to say I thought family was forever I thought family stuck together What's done is done I'm too far gone I've never felt so alone Accept what you've done and rise to the challenge (Rise to the challenge) Stop pointing the blame There's no on left to betray You're full of broken promises These days are dark, Filled with heavy clouds pouring on me I'll keep giving while you keep taking As my trust in you is breaking I see now my sacrifice got left by the wayside You've given up on us You've taken all I've made and all I've become You've given up on us Just another empty promise by those I love Put your arms in the air Just another empty promise by those I love Prove your worth, and part the sky for me

[@CMCSeahawk]

Some of JB's best work on this record.

[@PateyMuddaFudda]

These guys totally rewrote the book that is metalcore with this album, and I fucking love it.

[@Lukelo92]

Can't believe how good the bass sounds on this album.

[@julien2232]

There is a bassist ?

[@arthurramalho1297]

"I thought family was forever, I thought family stuck together"

[@calebperdue6935]

I was watching an interview with JB Brubaker and he said that after Jake screams "I've never felt so alone" that during the softer part the beeps are Morse code for "I've never felt so alone" which is another reason why ABR is so creative and talented! Great work, dudes!!!

[@TheBaronVSP]

This album is delicious cake for my ears and my mind.

[@thedroptunedgeneration1937]

ABR is really setting themselves apart from other metalcore bands. It's getting mature and having its own unique style. Love this song. 1:50 - 3:05 is amazing.

[@ford_ram_chevy5703]

There guitar melodies are spot on absolutely perfect!

[@johnnysturgis6904]

So much love for this album

[@LouGruff]

Now that's what I call metal. Metal bands of the world need to pay attention to this band and take notes. These guys know how to compose a good song.

[@McYates24]

Favorite song on the album so far

[@8JFJK8]

Right when i think i have found all my favorite ABR songs, i give an older album another listen and find a brand new favorite ABR song.......

[@antoniobarrara9052]

This is seriously one of the best and most satisfying metalcore songs I've ever heard in my life.

[@painkiller666666666]

best shit, since Constellations!

[@justingibbons8010]

I keep saying each song on this record is epic. But this one is. Perhaps the most epic song ever. 😱

[@elliottdodge8543]

Justin Gibbons How funny that I came here because of your FB status, and here you are.

[@AmongTheFence]

This is such high quality music. Everytime I listen to this song/album I hear something knew that gives me goosebumps.

[@KyleClyne]

I'LL KEEP GIVING WHILE YOU KEEP TAKING - AS MY TRUST IN YOU IS BREAKING

[@sk8trdude85]

2:39 is sooooo badass to blast in my car

[@Philliesfanno1]

This whole song is

[@sk8trdude85]

very true lol

[@XXMETAL4LIF3XX]

dsm_dc5 just watch them speakers! haha

[@TobikunOuO]

dsm_dc5 a shitty breakdown?

[@Philliesfanno1]

Tobi kun I like having a breakdown there. It doesn't feel forced, and it gives the lead playing over it more...feel, I guess.

[@monkeyDluffy191]

Best song on the album ! Just AMAZING !

[@matthewsmith5886]

So glad I found this track and especially this band. So so good dude

[@jmoon5148]

I love how these guys never start a song and end it the same way......... brilliance

[@reematallah5487]

Such an amazing song and album. Abr is so talented 😩😍

[@deathmetalglenn]

THIS!!! This is the album I've been waiting on since Constellations!!

[@iradleon6172]

This song gives me chills and goosebumps everytime I listen to it! Definitely recommend the song to anyone B)

[@grandemcfloofin8376]

sick amity affliction pfp my guy

[@Stephen-zw7km]

amazing song. absolutely love it

[@SuperSalazar94]

Fresh breath of air from ABR.

[@jakeywakey221]

Damn dude i cant believe its been 6 years already. Where has the time gone? Still one of my favorite albums of all time.

[@redfurydubstep]

Loveeeee the guitar riffs in this song...wow just wow

[@rdkayyvalorant]

How can a song be so good

[@SonofRa47]

this song, this album, is life

[@Miknardis]

Rarely heard such an amazing band!

[@ardahocic2945]

I have to say that 3:06 is one of the cutest breakdowns haha

[@TyLer-in2nm]

these days are dark! gives me goosebumps

[@gerbils4]

*No build up to break down* *Still heavy as fuck*

[@orchestrapark]

abr doesn't sugarcoat anything

[@LakeMan1406]

+gerbils4 I dunno man, from 1:44-3:00 seems like an arguable build up....either way, WINNING!

[@gerbils4]

LakeMan1406 I believe that to be a build up to the chorus (verse?) then just 'boom': breakdown. maybe someone more musically inclined can back me up (or correct me) on a more technical level but that's what I hear.

[@jmoon5148]

gerbils4 don't always need a breakdown when your abr

[@Zdomain12]

what's great about this band is they contrast their nice aggressive sections with some soft melodies. Too many bands just try to make the entire song heavy but you don't get the impression it's heavy since there are no reference contrasts

[@rdkayyvalorant]

I would love to go through all their songs and edit my favorite breakdowns a little longer and add the effects again like the guitar riff after the first piece.

[@nanotech2691]

Definitely one of my favorites.

[@baibhavchatterjee1636]

YOU CANNOT SIMPLY HAVE AN "ALL TIME FAVORITE ABR SONG" BECAUSE ALL ARE FUCKING ACE!

[@WoeIsLee]

Never was a fan of ABR thought they were too heavy, certain line i cant get into, but this cd reminds me alot of BTBAM with all the tempo changes. Not to mention the song indonesia, so im gonna have to do some homework tonight on all their songs.

[@8JFJK8]

leerey14 Meridian, Creative Captivity, echoes, ghosts, spirit breaker, Coordinates, Fault line, Marianas Trench. Those are some of my favourites mainly because of how melodic they are, some ABR songs are even too chaotic for me.

[@alexandershmyga1775]

The intro kills !!!

[@lordgmlp]

brutally intense. Bloody hell.

[@jereleubanks9590]

10 years strong and getting better, their on that LoG status

[@chromadreamcoat]

My favorite song on the album.

[@DeltaDdrumming]

I love this so much

[@hatiwolfheart5270]

Awesome, but I'd like to read the lyrics! Waiting for my pre-order btw!

[@gerbils4]

Hati Wolfheart genius.com/August-burns-red-broken-promises-lyrics You've given up on us You've taken all I've made and all I've become You've given up on us Just another empty promise by those I love Pushing me down flat on the ground trying to escape the pain I needed you to meet me half way But I'm left abandoned with nothing more to say I thought family was forever I thought family stuck together What's done is done I'm too far gone I've never felt so alone Accept what you've done and rise to the challenge (Rise to the challenge) Stop pointing the blame, there's no one left to betray You're full of broken promises You're full of broken promises These days are dark, filled with heavy clouds pouring on me (pouring on me) I'll keep giving while you keep taking, as my trust in you is breaking I see now my sacrifice got left by the wayside You've given up on us You've taken all I've made and all I've become You've given up on us Just another empty promise by those I love Put your arms in the air Prove your worth, and part the sky for me Put your arms in the air Prove your worth, and part the sky for me

[@mmartiinezz1531]

+gerbils4 thanks :p xD

[@josevonbuergenwader2]

Despite what a certain someone keeps insisting (you all know who i'm talking about), this is by far the most unique and grooviest album that ABR has ever written. I love the direction they've taken over recent years.

[@faizalgefferie7403]

Solid from ABR

[@bigfrigginpat]

Hits so hard. \m/

[@TRanCOraVE]

damn this song is awesome!

[@qwertyasdfg1261]

This album is beast AF!

[@Drojanx]

I propose we, metal fans, make a new Rock 'N Roll Hall of Fame and the first inductee shall be August Burns Red.

[@Dee-ix2gk]

awesome 😎😃🎸🎵🔊🔊🔊

[@kennedysigauke953]

They got more progressive! Love this!

[@lucasfornillo7382]

ABR sin duda, la mejor banda :D

[@ThyHarvesting]

Getting a This or The Apocalypse - Charmer vibe from this song, love it =D

[@lancaster72680]

love the holiday album they did

[@andanutrisatya7858]

This song gives me the same vibe as Invisible Enemy off Phantom Anthem and I just can't get enough of it, such a hopeful and beautiful melodic sound wirhout ever going too soft. I've just gotten into ABR, can anyone points me to another song by them that sounds like these two?

[@rdkayyvalorant]

Paramount is pretty good

[@kurtisklinger2196]

Can't remember how I was before hearing this album...3 thumbs up

[@SplashFireFilms]

still perfect in 2020

[@gregsmith1744]

Very interesting song

[@joshkersh08]

My favorite song on the Album... I know these guys are "Open Christians" but this song is either about God or just simply family. Still, GREAT song!

[@Tyler-bc9zz]

This song got me through some shit

[@kevinmojo874]

What's done is done, I'm too far gone, I've never felt so alone

[@davemcrae7476]

Sad to say i just found out about these guys..holy fuq does this ever sound great.?.

[@jaredwilkins4938]

I can definitely hear the thrash metal influence in this song

[@prestonjarrett]

Any Isis fans out there? Cuz 1:43 reminds me of Altered Course and 5:46 sounds like the outro to Grinning Mouths

[@garrettzajicek7802]

Preston Jarrett Agreed man!

[@carsontroeh127]

+Preston Jarrett Allah akbar?

[@garrettzajicek7802]

+Carson Troeh The band Isis that started in the late 90s haha not the human trash terrorists

[@wytchgoth]

+Preston Jarrett huge fan of isis, loved their work in paris

[@carsontroeh127]

***** fuck if I posted that comment after it happened, I would have loved to make that joke.

[@footballdiaryid2669]

I always play this song before I sleep

[@OnTheAlmondTree]

why has no one made a drum cover of this why *why*

[@06livefast]

CometRyu + Legubrit they looked at the drum tabs and instantly went in to a 3 year coma.

[@mojoprovo5487]

CometRyu + Legubrit because no one can cover matt G XD

[@joshgibson7978]

This reminds me nothing of Provision lol. However, the lead in this song reminds me a lot of Charmer by This or the Apocalypse.

[@xDrikenx]

wow

[@knuckle-blade]

Intro Riff is Cool.

[@SnZHyper]

2:37 "THESE DAYS ARE DAAAAAARRK, FILLED WITH HAPPY CLOUDS"

[@LifeofEbb]

Editing a cover of this song as I type this message! Hopefully up within the next few hours!

[@reedsims5407]

Capone Genesis tabs pls

[@brendanfreed]

How some people manage to listen to a song a couple times and get it together into a YT video in the day it's released is beyond me... That is to say, some are more talented than others!

[@LifeofEbb]

edmaircraft Been trying to upload it but copyright keeps preventing me. Might have to change the pitch then re-upload...

[@MaRsw1]

Capone Genesis I'm also working on a cover of this song, did you figure out everything with solos already? Do you tab? As you can see, you peaked my interest ;)

[@LifeofEbb]

***** I learned everything with solos all by ear, but haven't tabbed all of it just yet. I have it all filmed and everything but after uploading it again and again Rico Management has pulled it down twice. :\

[@Shhteeve15]

Predecessor of Invisible Enemy?

[@benschiller7101]

3:00 start there breakdown at 3:06 just wow breakdown out of no where

[@Fedsies]

...I Endorse This...

[@jimstrong8]

Jesus must like that metalcore. Lmao id go to church if they moshed abr

[@kevo60420]

New album is absolutely awesome, again! You don't like it, too fuckin bad!

[@fenixfrenix2019]

3:53 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@vacanthxme]

lyricsss?

[@FriskyTrikshoTz]

***** You've given up on us You've taken all I've made and all I've become You've given up on us Just another empty promise by those I love Pushing me down flat on the ground trying to escape the pain I needed you to meet me half way But I'm left abandoned with nothing more to say I thought family was forever I thought family stuck together What's done is done I'm too far gone I've never felt so alone Accept what you've done and rise to the challenge (Rise to the challenge) Stop pointing the blame, there's no one left to betray You're full of broken promises You're full of broken promises These days are dark, filled with heavy clouds pouring on me (pouring on me) I'll keep giving while you keep taking, as my trust in you is breaking I see now my sacrifice got left by the wayside You've given up on us You've taken all I've made and all I've become You've given up on us Just another empty promise by those I love Put your arms in the air Prove your worth, and part the sky for me Put your arms in the air Prove your worth, and part the sky for me

[@richardreptar1]

Fuck me this is good

[@TheNta10]

This album is like Dark side of the moon metalcore version

[@Joescanzillo]

this is what leveler was supposed to be!!

[@06livefast]

joe scanzillo Agreed. I'll admit I almost completely stopped listening to ABR after Leveler and then R&R was too much I just stopped completely. This album however is like hope, it's almost like they've had these songs in their back pocket and have slowly been fine-tuning their sound while they put out decent records for a few years, analyzing the climate of metal, and once metal gets a little bit bland and unoriginal.. BOOOM ABR drops the nuke and obama calls defcon 1 because metal is finally saved!

[@galanoth619]

joe scanzillo either you guys are drunk or you haven't gave Leveler an honest and fair listen Leveler is easily their most underrated album i urge you to listen to Pangaea , Cutting The Ties or poor millionaire again

[@tezr0ck]

Aaron S Carpe Diem!! :D

[@MrVictimMan]

x...O Divisions XD At first I was like "meeh" to Leveler, but one time I took a time just to stop and listen to it. Fell in love

[@galanoth619]

same thing with rescue and restore some of their most technical work is in that album

[@yoblackmama]

The guitar solo is very GnR-esque

[@joshuahpatterson2959]

Brian Bernhardt gnr is garbage compared to jb

[@GOTHIKSK8RRBRO]

this sounds similar to aal

[@stevanobradovic4969]

wat up...

[@skaterpunkhooligans4779]

dude this is a christian band, how dare you say that!!!!!!!!!

[@TobikunOuO]

the beginning was promising until the chugging started all over again. :L

[@tobiasgreven254]

There's litteraly no repetitive chugging except for the small breakdown at 3:06. I'm currently learning to play this song on guitar, and I can tell you it's extremely challenging to even remember all the riffs and patterns, let alone play them up to speed.

[@thevoiceoftruth55]

The way they mixed the drums on this album is pure trash, this song is worse than others, they are so far in the back ground. Sickening.

[@robertlong8563]

+thevoiceoftruth55 buy better speakers.

[@shadowsmustfall1]

My god, ABR have fallen to the depths. This song is horrible and the antithesis of what they were to begin with. So simple, so lacking in creativity, so repetitive, so mellow. Totally different band than Constellations and before. A little success with Leveler and they sold out hard. Glad I didn't waste any money on this garbage.

[@k_bsh]

shadowsmustfall1 Everyone's entitled to their opinion, but I agree with nothing you just stated. This song is fantastic. I love its length, its bold instrumentation and ability to travel through musical valleys that they've never traveled through before. To call it horrible is one thing, but to also call it "the antithesis of what they were to begin with" is a subjective hyperbole. This song is awesome to me, my favorite so far from this new album.

[@WoahThatIsJesus]

They didn't sell out. They changed their sound. Bands change. Get over it. There are no bands who will keep the same sound over the course of ten years. Your "reviews" are completely idiotic.

[@TheBaronVSP]

shadowsmustfall1 As the Dude once said, "Well, that's just like, your opinion, man".

[@blakev0009]

wow you must be a professional music critic. jerk...

[@richardreptar1]

shadowsmustfall1 Glad to know that that's just your opinion...lmao

[@19cemeterygirl]

Really in love with the lyrics.😱😱😱😱
