Artist: August Burns Red
Album: Leveler (Deluxe Edition)
Release Date: June 21st, 2011
Style: Hardcore / Metal
Label: Solid State Records / CI
Location: Lancaster, PA

About:

“There’s something special about August Burns Red (ABR). Thrill Seeker introduced it, Messengers proved it wasn’t an anomaly, Constellations hinted at even more and Leveler showcases it for everyone to hear. Their fourth full-length proves that ABR still have room for expansive, heartfelt innovation and creativity. Leveler doesn’t reinvent the wheel – there are no auto-tuned lead vocals or emo ballads or anything vastly different from the abrasive metalcore of the past three albums. But there is a palatable sense of maturity and growth in the songwriting as well as the overall sound of Leveler.
