August Burns Red guitarist JB Brubaker recently sat down to talk about some of the things that fans can expect from his band’s upcoming album. Here’s a snippet of what he had to say:
“Metalcore is not an interesting genre at this point. It’s very repetitive and predictable; I want more than breakdowns and pop choruses these days. […] I’ve just been out to pick up some bongos, congas, rototoms, bells and other stuff. There are a whole bunch of shakers, tambourines and whistles already at the studio and this afternoon we’re tracking a Mexican fiesta drum section over one of our new songs. It’s unlike anything we’ve ever done before.”
