To be honest, I was never a fan of Emmure. I had always thought their guitar tabs were more or less binary code. I quickly changed my mind after seeing them. Frankie’s vocals were on par with the CD which impressed me a lot. They opened the show Solar Flare Homicide.The rest of their set included fan favorites such as Demons With Ryu, I Thought You Met Telly and Turned Me Into Casper, R2 Deepthroat, and more.

Whitechapel’s set was a dream come true for their diehard fans. The first three songs they played were The Somatic Defilement, Vicer Exciser, and Prostatic Fluid Asphyxiation. Phil mentioned that their first show ever was with Emmure, so this was basically coming back full circle. This was my 5th seeing Whitechapel and Phil’s vocals were top notch compared to the last time I had saw them with Hatebreed/All Shall Perish where they had toured 3 weeks straight with no days off. I found it kinda odd that none of the band mentioned the fact that they re-mixed and re-mastered The Somatic Defilement. It’s worth noting that Phil called for not one, but TWO wall of deaths during Whitechapel’s set. I’m pretty sure everyone was drained after they played. pics from their set
I had first saw Unearth last year on their headliner with Born of Osiris so I was excited to see them again. They came out in full force opening my favorite song, My Will Be Done. The Massachusetts metal band warmed up the crowd with songs such as Giles, Eyes of Black, The Great Dividers, and more. Definitely hoping they get to headline another tour soon.
Obey The Brave, the Canadian hardcore band got the dancers going in the pit. I feel this band would be more formidable if they toured with bands in their respective genre. I’m sure everyone wishes Alex would reunite Despised Icon instead.
The Plot In You opened the show; wasn’t real impressed. Just one breakdown after another. Landon wrote a song about Austin Carlile and they didn’t even bother to play it; all that hype for nothing.
The first set of dates have been announced for Emmure’s North American Co-Headlining tour w/ Whitechapel, Unearth, Obey The Brave and THE PLOT IN YOU. VIP Tickets WILL be available shortly as well as more dates to be announced. Stay tuned!

HATEBREED is excited to announce the upcoming “10 Years of Perseverance” fall tour, a United States headline tour to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the band’s ground-breaking 2002 major-label debut, Perseverance. The tour features direct support from Whitechapel and special guests All Shall Perish and Deez Nuts, and kicks off on September 13th in Clifton Park, NY.
Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, June 8th. In addition, an exclusive pre-sale will begin on Wednesday, June 6th. HATEBREED will also be offering an exclusive VIP Diehard Package that includes a Meet and Greet, Commemorative Diehard Laminate, Poster and more! Make sure to head over to www.hatebreed.com/VIP for all ticketing and VIP Diehard details.
Perseverance is recognized worldwide as a landmark album in HATEBREED’s musical catalog—an album that skyrocketed the band to immediate leader-of-the-pack status after its release. Released on March 26, 2002, the band’s second full-length studio album blasted open the doors of American DIY Hardcore in mainstream culture with songs such as ‘I Will Be Heard’, ‘A Call For Blood’ and the album’s title track, ‘Perseverance’. Since the release of Perseverance, the fusion of hardcore and metal has been emulated and evolved relentlessly, but never duplicated with the same originality and brutality that HATEBREED accomplished with their first major-label release.
Perseverance debuted within the top 50 of the Billboard Top 200 chart and has since gone on to sell roughly half a million copies worldwide.

HATEBREED recently announced that they are in the studio self-producing their upcoming full-length album with co-producer assistance from world-renowned metal producers Josh Wilbur (Lamb of God, Avenged Sevenfold) and Chris “Zeuss” Harris (Suicide Silence, All That Remains, Shadows Fall).
The band just reported that they have finished the drum tracks. When asked about the recording process, drummer Matt Byrne said, “I got the biggest and best drum tone ever for this new album and Zeuss really helped me dial in the sound. Having 25+ days of pre-production really helped make this an efficient and fun recording session.”
