August Burns Red has confirmed that its eleventh studio album, Season Of Surrender, is a heavier and more emotionally driven record compared to its 2023 predecessor, Death Below.

The band intentionally structured the album's breakdowns to build intensity, creating a prelude that amplifies the impact of the heavier moments.

The instrumental and lyrical content reflects a more passionate and personal approach, with frontman Jake Luhrs emphasizing the album's roots in authenticity and emotional depth.

Season Of Surrender was released on June 5 via Fearless Records.

The album features guest appearances from Mike Hranica of The Devil Wears Prada, Jamie Hails of POLARIS, and MAKE THEM SUFFER.

Luhrs stated that the band has never been more unified, with a collective desire to represent their core identity as a technical, progressive American metalcore act.

The record is positioned as a statement of authenticity, with the band asserting that it remains true to their established sound without attempting to change for external trends.

The band has maintained its commitment to emotional substance and artistic integrity throughout the project.

August Burns Red continues to build on its legacy of critical acclaim, with multiple top 10 placements on the Billboard Top 200 and Grammy nominations for 'Identity' and 'Invisible Enemy'."
