This has been my favorite band forever and they keep delivering. Will see them live in May for the 9th time and can't wait to hear this song !@
Classic ABR. They have their sound, but they always mix things in to keep it interesting. That’s why they’re my favorite band
As someone who's been listening to ABR since 2011, I would have to agree that the number 1 pro in this song is also its number 1 con. I expected a lot more from my boys following their release with Jesse last year. But they're still my ALL TIME FAVORITE band! Damn, Matt still doesn't fail to amaze me all these years. I've quit drumming 5 years ago because life happened, but he's the reason why I got my own kit, so I can play Back Burner exactly just like him LOL!
Also, sharing my favorite songs of them per album, all of these I've covered with my band back then:
1. Suburbia
2. Redemption
3. Meddler
4. Empire
5. Provision
6. Martyr
7. Hero of the Half Truth
8. Defender
Their upcoming album is still one of my most anticipated ones this year alongside Sleep Token. METAL DOGGO!
Saw these guys the other night! They still bring it! I might go higher than your 7, and go 8.6!

All of these people saying it sounds more of the same. Hard disagree. Every ABR album has its own identity and vibe imo. The section between the breakdowns in this track is so ominous and evil sounding. They’ve never sounded like that before. A lot of screams on this sound otherworldly compared to anything Jake has done before. I think a lot of people would have a different take if they didn’t go into listening to this song thinking “oh let me guess, it’s just like all of their other stuff”
The bassist Dustin playing lead guitar so he probably wrote the song. They switch it up every once in a while. Rhythm guitarist Brent playing bass. They did this for Ties That Bind as well
I love that Dustin and Brent swapped guitar/bass for this song. Didn’t know Dustin had the chops like that
Dustin is insane haha. He can play drums proficiently, plays every guitar, and does backup vocals too
Dustin wrote half of Guardians!
He played lead too!
he's been doing a good amount of the guitar writing for a while now
Dustin could do everything in ABR as a solo project if he wanted. The guy is a beast of a multi-instrumentalist
Metaldoggo! Also, I bet the conversation for the video went smt like "hey, we need to brainstorm a concept for the 'Backfire' video" followed by "or, you know, we could just put... Fire... In the Back".
Love ABR, especially live. Metaldoggo!
Loved the first single, but this is just insane!
I'm not that familiar with ABR even though I do know what they generally sound like, but I enjoyed that song quite a lot. Very good 2000s metalcore with some fun progressive elements to prevent things from feeling too predictable while still sounding familiar. Good stuff, looking forward to this album.
It's abr, everyone complains "tHEy SouND thE SaMe" which may or may not be true but they've already proven time and time again that it sells. Atleast they arnt going backwards like alot of other bands from the same Era. Everyone else getting soft or playing softer music and abr still banging out. I'd rather have the same old heavy stuff over some new trash 🗑
@@boxkid759 ummm no not really man the fact of the matter is metalcore is a dying genre and it’s been for a while and abr stands at the top of the mountain for there consistency while other bands just fall of or never drop a new single in 4 years plus
This is why we love ABR! In a sense; They have their own sound. There is no way you could mistake hearing a song from them and not know it is ABR. Been a fan since Messengers came out.
They continue to impress. It's not the most artistically impressive music, but man they just keep working on their technicalities and improving in that way.
Matt on drums sounds like he has 4 arms.
You 100% nailed it, same thoughts. Good old ABR man.
Fun fact on April 15th in albany new I got vip meet an greet tickets to see them in concert, with signings......dude my Gipson will be signed
I agree with your pros and cons to a T. Metal doggo
I’m in the music video for this song! I love it so much
will see them live at Danforth so cant wait
also metal doggo
Can’t wait to hear this at heartsupport fest! 🔥🔥
Metaldoggo
Best band ever
Birb- you gonna do a full album react on Patreon for this one?
Metaldoggo! Anyone else notice that their bassist played lead, their lead played rhythm and their rhythm played bass?!
Hope ABR come to Australia this year, and bring ERRA with them 🙏👌
I've always had a neutral opinion on them. Neither liked or disliked them.
This sounds far more interesting than anything they've done in the past though, to my ears. I love it.
Hard disagree. Especially found in far away places. Have you ever heard of that song?
Nice
Metal doggo for the win
Speaking of keeping 2000’s metalcore alive, Unearth dropped a new video today and it’s not too shabby
Oh yeah in the cons sections, you should edit “pros” to say “cons”. Nice review and makes sense. Hoping for some fun bigger twists from any more stuff they release but we’ll see lol
Yeah I saw that too oops lol
eheh no worries. Tiny mishaps aside, your videos rock
The guy with the headless kiesel playing the solo is there bass player😮
I don't know if it sad or happy how good this guys are. On one side, it's awesome seeing legends still kicking ass, in other side, it's pretty pathetic that guys who are on scene for 20 years are completely outdoing modern, newer core bands.
I personally never listened to too many ABR songs but this was actually a pretty decent track to me. METALDOGGO.
Go listen to messengers
@@aaronbeall8280 legendary album
Metal Dogo and august burns red are a great power team
Metal doggo
Will i be seeing you in Toronto may 9th or 10th for the sickest concert of the year?
Metaldoggo 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
METAL DOGO
Metaldoggo ❤
Metal Doggo! Yeah, this was pretty alright....
I thought Guardians was one of their best albums in a while especially with METALDOGGO on the cover. Hoping the new album will top it but agree with the Ps n' Cs on this one.
*metal doggo*
Metal doggooo
ABR proves that their cons are also their pros.
I miss the old ABR.
Loved them since Messengers came out and honestly think they've gotten stale and lost some magic. Every album having the exact same production, same sound, and same style gets boring after a long while. Guardians was the first record of theirs' i didn't much care for and this is heading that way for me too, sadly. Its missing something that makes it special... its like oh nice more ABR that sounds identical to the last 15 songs
Sound like 90% of the other ABR songs I've heard in the last decade. Not any memorable parts in this one for me personally.
agree
I agree, it’s a good song. But it’s very same same.
Boring. Not much else to say. Same old thing they've been doing forever.
