August Burns Red to Release 20th Anniversary for “Thrill Seeker”
Grammy-nominated, Lancaster five-piece AUGUST BURNS RED — JB Brubaker on lead guitar, Brent Rambler on rhythm guitar, Matt Greiner on drums, Jake Luhrs on vocals, and Dustin Davidson on bass — have some "thrilling" news" for their diehard legion of fans.
The band will be releasing an incredibly special version of their seminal debut album Thrill Seeker.
The album was re-recorded from the ground up by producers Carson Slovak and Grant McFarland. And fans have always wondered what the album might sound like with Luhrs, who joined the band after the album's release, on vocals. The ABR faithful gets it wish with this version!
The new edition features several additional sonic treats, including guest appearances by Killswitch Engage's Adam Dutkiewicz, the original producer of Thrill Seeker, on "Speech Impediment," and by original Thrill Seeker vocalist Josh McManness on "Barbarian." It will also feature the rare bonus track "Pride & Humility," which was also re-recorded.
"When I joined the band in early 2006, I often spoke about how I'd love to do vocals on a studio recording of Thrill Seeker. I did the majority of the touring on the album and always felt a deep connection to it. As the 20 year anniversary of the album approached, we decided to finally give Thrill Seeker a facelift. It was such a rewarding experience to dust these songs off and give them new life. This album changed the course of my life and I can't wait for fans to hear this."
