Depending on where you are As Cities Burn and Emery are also supporting. Both are good but Emery in particular is fantastic

Yeah honestly no one sounds like ABR to me. The standard mxc elements are there but they're definitely in their own lane imo

Yeah, no one's ever done it quite like these guys. AOTWK is the closest that came to mind, maybe Phinehas, but they've got more of that melo core dna

Phinahas are the closest that I can think of. There was also another small metalcore band back in the days that used to be pretty similar to ABR. It was The Soulless IIRC.

first i the breather album is closeish as well. but for me a lot of melocore stuff like aotwk and phinehas are way more shreddy than abr is. same genre but sound distinctly different to me. especially abr's later albums with more progressive elements. like idk what else sounds like found in far away places.
