August Burns Red: Delivering the sentence at #1

Two-time Grammy nominated metalcore band August Burns Red recently released their latest album Guardians on Fearless Records. The album went straight to the top at #1 on the Billboard top 100 Hard Music chart, the Rock Albums chart, and the Vinyl Albums chart. They also claimed #3 on Top Current Album and #4 on Digital Album sales.
The band was recently scheduled to go on tour with Killswitch Engage which had to be postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic and to be rescheduled at a later date. ABR is also scheduled to play some festivals later this year in Budapest, Ysselsetyn, and Birmingham, AL. No announcements have been made regarding those festival dates.

Recently the band found themselves appearing on one of the collectible covers of the Revolver Magazine spring 2020 issue. Inside the magazine vocalist Jake Luhrs digs deep on his past struggles, the importance of mental health, his nonprofit Heartsupport, and more. That issue can be found on shop.revolvermag.com

The return of A Plea for Purging?

Are we about to experience the full return of A Plea for Purging? In 2012 the band played their last show ever in Nashville, TN, following their farewell tour until they reunited for one night only at Facedown Fest in 2017. Recently vocalist Andy Atkins went to social media making a post with the caption that says "Always and forever dem boys. Starting a new band. Stay tuned." In February of 2020, a new Instagram page emerged (@pleajams) only posting two pictures. One of vocalist Andy on stage, and the other of a pedal board that looks to be in a studio setting. Andy has also posted on social media in the past looking for a space to record music. There is no confirmation yet stating that A Plea for Purging is coming back under the name Plea, though it is possible. But new music is definitely confirmed. Stay tuned for more news and as always thanks for reading!
