I'm not bothered really, just posting it for those who are. Messengers is ok and more than enough ABR for me.

covers cool...................im soooooooooooooooooooooooooo siked for this album. gonna be killer.

Paradox will rule.

And you can always trust Solid State for good album artwork.

this album will be damn epic.

Existence is already fat - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fvn8QXX_s0

hopefully this will offer something bigger than the usual ABR flawless breakdowns and blastbeats

Album art is awesome.

Album has potential, but I hope they break out of their mold.

I'm now officially pumped for this.This Message Edited On 05.07.09

Bringonthebreakdown will be stoked. I am somewhat stoked.

Also, the artwork is cool.This Message Edited On 05.07.09

omg it's the ABR typeface

boredom

HoPeFuLlY tHeY'lL aDd MoAr BrEaKdOwNs!!!!!!!11111

I'm dying to hear this record. Messenger was amazing. After hearing Existence recording live, sounded pretty good from what i could get out of it, just got me more pumped for this record to come out. Hope they post a new song soon!

Messengers 2.

ShOuLd Be ThRiLl SeEkEr TwO

Hopefully less repetitive and less breakdown-driven than messengers

or thrill messengers 2. and stop typing like a fucking tard ^^^^^^

Im pumped.

Hopefully they'll change it up a little bit from last album, then it'll probably rule

All you can hope for is a slight variations from Messengers and that will make it epic.

cool cover
however the music willlikely be breakdowns part 2
also known as messengers part 2
breakdownss make up entire songs?
=gaycore/untalentedcore/stupidfuckingdumbasscore

lol
epic and august burns red in the same sentence
grab your guitar boys and girls
drop tune it to C
no play the open bottum C
and palm mute it
you've leanred the discography of this band

Hey retard. This is an August Burns Red thread, not a As Blood Runs Blacks one. ABR's songs are more than breakdowns and chugging. But I'm not sure why I took the time to write this because along with a reeducation of metalcore you need one of the English language; more specifically spell check.

i really hope this is not a disappointment, i cant take another 'hit me baby one more time'.

Oh look, more metalcore for me to jump on and write a three review for.This Message Edited On 05.07.09

well go review some power metal instead?

I don't listen to power metal besides Edguy and I've already done two Edguy reviews. I'll stick with this thanks. Unless you want to review it...

Well its not released for a while so I'll bide my time. On a more serious note, im worried for this band and its direction following its getting big.

Don't get your hopes up...
this always happens.
A long wait followed by infinite disappointment.This Message Edited On 05.07.09

ABR has never failed to disappoint. I'm sure it will it will be slightly different from Messenger hopefully in the right direction. We'll find out soon enough

@Slimjim. Just because they do breakdowns doesn't make them untalented, actually ABR is pretty technical. Have you tried learning their riffs?

I doubt he could play one of them

Just because they do breakdowns doesn't make them untalented, actually ABR is pretty technical.

legiittt. hopefully more like thrill seeker than messengers, imo.

some of those chugs are techinical though ; )

I agree some chugs are pretty techy and some are pretty bland but chugging is whats metal. From mediocre bands nowdays who do the occasional chugging which im sure you all disapprove and call untalented since it what all metal bands do, its what make metal and personally i prefer chugs as i can bob my head to the song and really go crazy. C'mon what would metal concerts be without it?

They're technical writers, but they're guitaring is very uncomplicated.

me and bringonthebreakdown are stoked for this.

in all fairness, they're guitaring is still more complicated than the majority of their contemporaries.

Yeah. But it's all the same harmonic minor riffs, noodly noodly, chuggity chuggity, chunky noodles, etc.

Don't get me wrong, I love ravioli. I mean August Burns Red.

I am more a penne fan myself.

DOH. Double post

Although some of their stuff is somewhat technical, they waste their talent by letting nothing but open note chugging consume half of their songs. They have talent, but just make poor decisions when choosing how to demonstrate it.

exactly what i meant
bad day yesterday
excuse the hating
and lack of spell check (school computer)
my opinion stands
that they need to display their potential talent to awe me
at this point they're another yawn in a sea of 'core' bands

AiNt NoThInG mOrE cR00Sh ThAn ChUgGiNg OpEn NoTeS

Gonna be *in awkwardly high falsetto* sickkkkkkk

album art is cool as hell

Cover's somewhat cool. I can't help but think Messengers will be their only great album though.

I cant wait to see these guys when they come to Aus in August. haha

@ brinonthebreakdown.

Yes, we've been friends since Elementary school. I wanted to go to his show really bad but I already agreed to go to Virginia Wesleyan that weekend. I'm guessing you know him?

i hope they dont get too "august burns red" for their own good. needs more tempo changes and styling
