AUGUST BURNS RED have released the music video for Ancestry featuring Jesse Leach of Killswitch Engage. The release is the first single of their newly announced album Death Below. Speaking on the new release, lead guitarist JB Brubaker says:
“Ancestry’ is a complex and technical ABR track held together by perhaps the most painful and personal lyrics Jake has ever written. I loved this song in every phase since its inception. From the instrumental rendition, to the lyrics and vocals being added, to finally bringing it all together with Jesse’s anthemic guest vocals, ‘Ancestry’ is a song we’ve been looking forward to sharing with the world for a long time.”

Set for release on 24th March, Death Below features additional guest spots from guitarist Jason Richardson, as well as JT Cavey of ERRA and Spencer Chamerlain of Underoath. Speaking further on the newly announced album, Brubaker says:
“It’s no secret that the past few years have been extremely dark and challenging. ‘Death Below’ is here as a result of that time in each our lives and the emotions that came with it. We were motivated by uncertainty, fear, outrage, and triumph. I feel this is the darkest, most personal album we’ve ever written, and I couldn’t be more proud of what the five of us made together.”
