Concert Review: August Burns Red and The Amity Affliction at The Fillmore in Minneapolis, MN

August Burns Red and The Amity Affliction brought their co-headlining tour to

Minneapolis, and for a Tuesday night, the crowd showed up ready to bring the energy.

The Amity Affliction recently released their new album “House of Cards” this April,

marking their first release since former vocalist and bassist Ahren Stringer’s departure

last February. They opened their set with newer material but still made sure to include

fan favorites like “Pittsburgh” and “Soak Me in Bleach.” The setlist was a great mix of

new songs and classics. Overall, the performance was solid, sounded fantastic, and the

crowd was fully engaged and singing along.

August Burns Red:

I wasn’t very familiar with August Burns Red going in, but they honestly impressed me a

lot. The whole band was incredibly in sync, not just with their sound, but also in how

they moved and interacted on stage. It made their performance really engaging to

watch. Since they’ve been a band for over 20 years, it’s no surprise how tight and

polished they are live.

I also want to give a shoutout to their lighting tech, the visuals throughout their set were

super cool and added a lot to the overall vibe of the performance.
