August Burns Red have revealed all of the details of their new album and shared a bludgeoning new song set to appear on it.
The record is set to be titled ‘Season Of Surrender’ and will be released on June 05 via Fearless Records, who the band recenely resigned to. It serves as the follow-up to their 2023 full-length ‘Death Below’.

The band have also shared ‘The Nameless’, which feels like a summation of every era of the band in the most bold colours. A bludgeoning blend of tight breakdowns, thrilling leads and spine-tingling vocals refrains, it’s hard, heavy and hedonistic in all the ways that metalcore should be.
Bassist Dustin Davidson had this to say about it, stating, “‘The Nameless’ is 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.”
Whilst vocalist Jake Luhrs adds, “Lyrically, ‘The Nameless’ is a song 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.”
It follows on from ‘Behemoth’, a song that embodies that word in both name and nature.
