They keep evolving. From Jake's vocals to the instrumentals. Real kings of metalcore if you ask me. So unbelievably tight live performances. There are so much metal bands that just give you a wall of sound/noise unlike their albums. Not ABR. They produce the opposite.
And another thought from me I love how Jake on interviews is like "I let the instruments shine more than my vocals" then does the coolest vocals ever live and on the new record
I always appreciated the talent it takes for a band to adjust their sound depending on the tour they are on. Some bands can only sound one way and that’s it. Plus to take a band like ABR that’s already heavy and make the self sound even heavier is pretty great.
I highly suggest everyone anyone who listens to heavy music or METAL music to go and see AUGUST BURNS RED. Hands down crushingly dam good metalcore band. And every album they've released is bangin' good
Anyone else notice Adam Gray hitting the china for Matt at 12:20 and Matt just playing the snare with him haha. Jake's performance is absolutely amazing in this, so entertaining to watch
Oh my gosh. I just noticed something 3 years later... At 0:39, you can see what appears to be Dustin about to hop on one of the risers, but JB ends up taking both, so Dustin is just like, “Welp...that’s cool” and goes to find another spot on stage, hahahahaha
I come back to this video at least once a month just to bask in how disgusting Jake's vocals are here. The dude's vocal chords age like a fine wine or stinky cheese. Pure bliss
I love watching this and thinking about all those comments saying the vocals need work.. dude this is next level , and everytime i watch them live the vocals blow my mind!
I've been outta the loop... Nice to see the sky get darker with each subsequent year they play. Also, they're like a very small club of bands that must have Energizer batteries as vertebrae as they just don't slow down. I've been depriving myself of this band in particular probably when I need to listen to em the most...
All they always this good live!? I just happened to look them up live and man, they all are ridiculously good. It's like they're not even trying...🤘🤷♂️
Matt's posture is perfect
Just like his drumming.
You have to keep great posture so you don't get tired
Always is!
Good for the spine tho.. lmao
Well yeah. He's matt. ;)
0:00 Up Against the Ropes
5:05 Empire
8:55 White Washed
yosh yosh d
Tks
Thank you
Nobody swinging mics like this dude. They should offer a performance award for mic swinging
Tyler Baker Buddy Nielsen gives him a run for his money.
TheGhost IsNear I agree but damn lol
Totally different genre but adam from taking back Sunday is a mic swinging master.
They go hard af live

Jake sounds brutal!
lmao I think Jake really did make his vocals guttural cause of the actual fest full of death metal bands
I was really suprised by their performance at this festival, they sounded much more heavier than they usually do
Jake knows how to adapt. Vocal genius.

Deathcore mode activated. :)
THE BEST PERFORMANCE EVER WATCHED! The vocals mad brutal than any band I’ve seen, his vocals are so clean
You'd love their "Home" live performance
Brutal band but vocals aren't really clean
Wow! One of the best live performances that I've ever seen in my life. Sound quality and the musicians are prefect! ABR rules
After 20 years blokes can still smash out a solid tune better than ever
Hell yeahh!! Jake's vocals have improved so much over the past year, and usually it's the opposite with these types of bands.
I'll always love them but I haven't been huge on their last few releases. They always decimate live tho
Proper vocals right there - the high screams get me every time.
God I love how Jake's vocals have evolved since these guys popped my metalcore cherry back in 2007. Goosebumps already at 00:25
That growl was BRUTAL
dude, this is the best thing iv ever seen on stage........
Their 2014 Brutal Assault show was also hella sick if you haven't seen it yet
I highly suggest everyone anyone who listens to heavy music or METAL music to go and see AUGUST BURNS RED.
Hands down crushingly dam good metalcore band.
And every album they've released is bangin' good
Anyone else notice Adam Gray hitting the china for Matt at 12:20 and Matt just playing the snare with him haha. Jake's performance is absolutely amazing in this, so entertaining to watch
Jake must've competed in yo-yo competitions when he was a kid. I want mic swinging skills like this dude.
lmao
Genius of Metalcore.
10:51 - is she looking at me? oh she is. great.
Well, I wasn't familiar with these guys' music, but the first 5 seconds of their performance already won me over.
welcome to the wonderful world of ABR
Your life just got better than you ever expected, I'm happy for you bro
Sandi Burns you are on truants react group aren't you? Haha
Who? What?
please just promise me you will listen to their album: Constellations
Good choice on the vocal style switch sounds awesome.
These vocals are so insane for this show. Keeps me coming back. If only he did this on everything.
You can literally taste this...it’s like, metalcore lasagna 💪🏻
jacob rhoads dude lmfao
Goddamn that first song was energetic as hell. Great performance as usual August Burns Red!
Christopher Fleming Up Agianst The Ropes is Life
I don’t understand how this crowd is so calm.... they should be tearing that place down.
I love metalcore however apparently that was more of a deathcore bands festival so I'm assuming some of them think of it as not heavy enough
Love seeing these young men continuing the heavy metal legacy. Love seeing the young faces out in the crowd. Long live metal!!!
Jake. He’s just an incredible vocalist! God bless him! All of those dudes are incredible!
I'm in love with the lows Jake used in this set.
4:47 REEEEEEE. REEEEEEE. RRRBREE RRRBREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
2:38 the happiness (the guy with glasses in lower left)
Asking NC I wish someone looked at me the way he looks at them
Hey guys thas me, the guy with the glasses. I am so glad that the happiness is reaching u!!! :D
man I get goosebumps everytime I watch these guys play live. its almost like I'm there
That up against the ropes performance is probably the best performance of any band of all time
Lmfao these guys are hands down the best live performin band of all time.
kings of the breakdown
This performance is so great.
This band is too goddamn good
Oh my gosh. I just noticed something 3 years later...
At 0:39, you can see what appears to be Dustin about to hop on one of the risers, but JB ends up taking both, so Dustin is just like, “Welp...that’s cool” and goes to find another spot on stage, hahahahaha
Lxl just noticed that
LMAO, JB in his flip flops too
lmao great catch
Honestly one of the best bands EVER to see live
Oh, a deathcore version, I see you...
Man they are so insane LIVE !! Nice quality ABR
I come back to this video at least once a month just to bask in how disgusting Jake's vocals are here. The dude's vocal chords age like a fine wine or stinky cheese. Pure bliss
This is proven on Guardians man he killed it on the new album!
Right? I wish it had Back Burner on the set list.
@@Deltoxity indeed
are you fuckin high
@@RickBomhof always
After against the ropes it's no wonder messengers is a favored album
My goodness this is blowing me away, sounds really good.
This is fucking amazing , tight as can be, theses dudes are melting faces, the guitar player's are insane. i fucking love this band.

JB in the sandles absolutely brilliant
the bass slide in empire is always so nasty
love these guys, I go see them every time they are in town.
00:25 Those Lows were monstrous
These guys don't suck! I now have them on my live bucket list
OMG!!! So fucking BRUTAL!!!!
A lot of singers loses his voices, and he’s amazing!!!!!
Damn man
That vocal is sick!
This guy are sick
@Sittie Johaira Manalao nah. Not in the slightest!
These guys are like 1000 steps ahead of these other metal kids. It's like I'm walking into metal heaven when I play this show.
This is one of the bast things I've ever seen this YEAR!!!!
I apologize, I mean: THIS DECADE!!!!!!
6:56 When you forget the words and there's too much sweat in your eyes to read the lyrics on your hand XD
Matthew H. I dont think he had the lyrics on his hands I think it was part of the performance but I can be wrong
Noctis Strider You must be fun at parties ;) jk
im pretty sure thats from the rain
Over everyone's head haha
So you can play metal in sandals...
xsnappydresserx mate you never seen a Parkway drive show haha?
Allows for better mobility while ur rocking
*flip flops
Nothing is more metal! 🤘🏻
Hell you could even wear pajamas and still be metal
I enjoyed all of this. The set & the skills. Keep it up gents!
I blast these guys during my workout 🙌🏼💪🏼
Damn Jake dropped low for this performance, that was beast!
Goosebumps. Can’t wait to see them in London next month - quality screaming.
Jesus bless you all
Wow from their DVD to now Jake has come a long way. I guess they all have. Insane now.
the king of mic swing
Quality band in every sense
Amazing vocals, still has that classic style but done well and professionally
I love watching this and thinking about all those comments saying the vocals need work.. dude this is next level , and everytime i watch them live the vocals blow my mind!
These guys truly rock 🎸🔥🤘
Great performance. Props

Jake sound brutal they always do keep it up guys!!! :)
August burns red became deathcore
Goes deathcore!
great mix.
sounds incredible
That is some impressive quality, props to everyone involved
Is Jake hinting towards a deathcore path? 🤔🤔
Saw them live last year it was epic!
I've been outta the loop... Nice to see the sky get darker with each subsequent year they play. Also, they're like a very small club of bands that must have Energizer batteries as vertebrae as they just don't slow down. I've been depriving myself of this band in particular probably when I need to listen to em the most...
holy crap this is the best ever performance of ABR
I like this 👍🤟👿🤟
Gutterals everywhere! Love it
Why is Jake so much much more brutal in this one?
I bet It got to do with the fest they were playing. Full of straight up Death Metal bands.
More like Death Burns Red... \m/
the best vocals on live performance
All they always this good live!? I just happened to look them up live and man, they all are ridiculously good. It's like they're not even trying...🤘🤷♂️
The answer is absolutely yes! They’ve never dropped the ball once!
7:40 that bass slide tho 🔥💣
can anyone identify any other bands that are on the side stage watching?
August Burns Red, absolutely spot-on !
Qualidade dos caras é absurda! Que performance meu amigos🙏
Sinistro, olha que tem quem diga que ao vivo os caras não são tão bons
4:18 DARKNESS! INPRISONING ME! is now all i can think of
from 1:40 till 1:47 the best thing i have ever seen
Hardhome Rescue when the robot becomes the metal \m/
You need to see more shows my friend…..
11:21 is that CJ from TAIM in the yellow ponshjacket?
I wish jake would do more highs.
Solid Metalcore🤘🔥
Best metalcore band
Shoutout to ABR from The Wreckage (Singapore)!
Insane 🤘🏽🔥
6:58 Yessss
Jake's better than never!!!
You can't even say any of them were of their game! Stellar! STELLAR!
Incredible vocals... wtf
Where can I get that blazer that Jake was wearing? That thing looks so sick!
Holy fuck .. 10:25 Looks so badass when it cuts to the front of the stage and you see the rain making Jake look like a total badass out of a movie
Ayyyyyy! Some Leveler songs!💪💪💪
