    For the kick-off episode of our "Hometown" series - in which we visit bands' birthplaces and explore how the locales influence their creative vision - Revolver travels to the farmlands of Lancaster, Pennsylvania: the home of metalcore outfit August Burns Red. Watch guitarist JB Brubaker trace ABR's success back to the hardworking ideals inherent in the rural community, while drummer Matt Greiner takes us on a tour of his family's farm - including the egg room practice space where ABR wrote their first album Thrill Seeker - and reveals how he dealt with the guilt of playing metal while his dad was outside harvesting corn.

    How on earth could you dislike this!?!?!?? Its beautiful how down to earth these guys are.

      I didn't and wouldn't dislike this because of the band, but it looked like it was directed by a dude who just bought a new drone, wanted to use it, and this was his excuse.

    These guys are one of my biggest inspirations. Seeing them push and work hard from such humble beginnings really gets me motivated to not stop playing music and to work hard myself. Not to mention their lyrics helping motivate, inspire, and get me though tough times. If you guys read this, thank you so much for everything you've done.

    As someone who comes from a little podunk town that looks very similar, I can definitely understand how strong work ethic comes from living in these places, and I've seen firsthand how it transfers into your work ethic in a band. I've always said that ABR are one of the hardest working bands in the metal genre, and I can see why now. This was super cool to see.

    Greetings from Nicaragua- Central America. It is always amazing to realize that we all have a simple beginning, but that when we maintain humility, God exalts us. Dear Matt Greiner (August Burns Red) thank you for the example of being grounded, not forgetting our origins, knowing where we come from, where we are and where we are going! God bless you all!

    The best records are always written in places you wouldn't expect, of circumstances you wouldn't expect. Constellations is one of the best metalcore albums ever written. Period.

    Glad that after all this time they stayed right where they are and didn't buy into the industry crap about moving to Cali, or Austin, or New York. I think that plays a big role in how long they've lasted.

    Hey! Jesus loves you! He died for your sins on the cross and rose again 3 days later! All you need to do to accept Gods gift is believe in him and what he did, And you need to repent(turn from sin and follow Jesus) and ask him for forgiveness in prayer. And remember that Jesus is God! He is three in one, the father, the son, and the Holy Spirit! Have a good day:)
