Traitors on Tour

With their face-melting hardcore sound, Traitors have quickly soared in popularity with a dedicated and rapidly expanding fanbase. A deathcore/heavy metal band, Traitors emphasize intensity and rage in their music. Traitors features the talents of vocalist Tyler Shelton, bassist Dave Moore, guitarists Mikey Ingram and Alan de la Torre, and drummer Stephen Arango. Traitors commenced their 2022 New World Order Tour in October 2022 following the release of their single, "Nu World Order," which was the third piece of music the band released since their 2019 album Repent. The New World Order Tour followed their 2022 Menace II Society Tour, which was their first tour since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Traitors' previous tours also include the 2019 Eternal Nightmare Tour, 2018 Violent Society Tour, 2017 Farewell Tour, 2016 Night Terrors Tour, and 2015 Hate Campaign Tour. Their live performances are not to be missed, featuring Shelton's low-ranging vocals and the fast hands of drummer Arango. Reviews online emphasize their live performance veracity, with one attendee stating, "The heaviest show I have ever seen. Absolutely incredible."

The group premiered onto the scene in 2014 with their eponymous EP. Their first album, The Hate Campaign, debuted in 2015 and was followed by Mental State (2016), Anger Issues (2018), and Repent (2019).

Traitors Live in Concert

Traitors were formed in Tampa, Florida, in October 2013. The first couple of years were difficult for the band, but their ascent to popularity launched with the release of their 2015 EP Night Terrors. When discussing the band's influences for The Hate Campaign during a 2014 interview with New Transcendence, Arango cited power and greed. "The idea of freedom and liberty has become nothing but a mere idea of what used to be a free world," Arango went on to say. "We live in a place where material and money have become the face of happiness." The sudden formation of the band happened when Arango woke up Shelton, telling him they were going to start a band. The band's name was also chosen somewhat abruptly and nonchalantly, with the group preferring to focus instead on the music itself. The inspiration for Shelton's lyrics comes from a wide range of places, such as horror movies and his girlfriend's sleep disorders. Traitors boasts over 86,000 monthly listeners on Spotify. Their most streamed song, "Short Fused" off Anger Issues (2018), has been streamed more than 2.5 million times. Other popular hits include "Arrogance," "R.I.P" and "Menace II Society," with over 1 million streams each.
