About
After The Burial in Concert
It's become increasingly difficult to pigeonhole modern metal bands into just one niche or subgenre. Case in point: Twin Cities-based heavyweights After The Burial, whose music shapeshifts between various strains (including nu-metal, progressive metalcore, technical metal, and even deathcore) with brutal agility. Anthony Notarmaso ranks among the best unclean singers around—his vocals veer between throat-shredding bellows and wicked banshee roars—while songwriter/lead guitarist Trent Hafdahl crafts sick licks and programming that pulverize like a cement mixer.
Of course, it helps that After The Burial have been grinding away in the trenches since 2004, when a group of high school friends—including Hafdahl—decided to form a band. Tireless touring and a self-released effort called ‘Forging a Future Self' soon led to a record deal with respected national label Sumerian Records, which released the group's second album, 2008's ‘Rareform.'
Over the years, a ferocious work ethic has helped After The Burial persevere in the face of obstacles, such as lineup changes and the tragic death of founding member/songwriter Justin Lowe. But a commitment to hard work has also sent the band on an upward career trajectory that shows no signs of trailing off. Both 2010's ‘In Dreams' and 2013's ‘Wolves Within' peaked near the top of the Heatseekers Albums chart, while 2016's ‘Dig Deep' landed at No. 1 on both the Independent and Hard Rock Albums charts. The latter full-length in particular was a revelation rimming with frantic riffage, barking vocal angst and intricate arrangements that knitted together aggression and nuance.
After The Burial have toured with heavy metal's A-List, including the Acacia Strain, Suicide Silence, Winds of Plague, and Veil of Maya. Spending so much time on the road has only made the group a more formidable live act, and reinforced their commitment to redefining both metal's reality and its possibilities.

by Chrispy990 on 6/17/22Summit - DenverThis is the second time I’ve seen ATB; both times have blown me away. They play with a ton of energy. The whole crowd was super into it. I’m glad they played a great set list too. Thy Art and the other bands crushed it as well. I’ll totally go see them all again!

by Gib on 6/9/22House of Blues Cleveland - ClevelandFor context this is my first metal show, and my first time at House of Blues. The show was absolutely phenomenal. The sound was incredible and every band put on excellent sets to make up an incredible show. Brand Of Sacrifice was awesome, Currents was awesome, Thy Art Is Murder was awesome, and After The Burial was awesome. I have zero complaints and had an excellent, excellent night. These guys all know how to put on a show. (I just wish ATB would play some of their older material live!)

by b. d. on 5/18/22The Observatory - Santa AnaEvery band did a fantastic job. Was not expecting high live quality from every band, but they all did amazing. Brand of Sacrifice was the biggest surprise, I definitely recommend catching them on tour.

by BuriedAlive on 4/21/22I was so happy to get to see these guys before all the Covid-19 nonsense shut down live music and quite almost killed it all together. Super stoked to see these guys are back out on the road and touring again. Cant wait for some new material to drop either.

by Rockstar666 on 8/12/21@kaylafae, sorry but, and nothing against Acacia Strain I like them a lot, but no one puts ATB to shame...NO ONE. Probably the best band to ever be, they're on another level. Not only that but they're all really cool guys too. I don't care if they're touring with nickelback, yeah I know that well never happen I'm just making a point, I'll be there to rock out to them.
