Foreign & Familiar

After wrapping up a summer that included a Billboard Top 10 debut for their latest album, Rescue & Restore, and a mainstage spot on Warped Tour, AUGUST BURNS RED are preparing to unveil their next offering, a brand-new DVD entitled Foreign & Familiar to release this fall.

The documentary chronicles the entire 18-month touring cycle behind the band’s breakout 2011 album Leveler, whose critical and commercial success catapulted the band to the forefront of the modern heavy music scene.

From headlining tours of North America, Europe, Japan and Australia - with stops in New Zealand, Taiwan, the Philippines, Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore and more along the way - Foreign & Familiar shows the globetrotting metal titans doing what they do best in settings all over the world.

“Foreign & Familiar has literally been three years in the making,” explains guitarist JB Brubaker. “It's no small task to try and squeeze 18 months of touring into a two hour package, but that's exactly what we have here. I am grateful that we were able to pull this DVD together, as this is something we'll all be able to look back on as old men and remember the good ol' days. I think anyone who cares about this band will find Foreign & Familiar to be an entertaining and insightful behind the scenes look at ABR on the road.”

Quick Bio

They say the definition of madness is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. If true, then in many ways the genre of metalcore has become the equivalent of insanity - hundreds of bands repackaging the same structures, same guitar riffs and scream-sing choruses to the same effect.
