Pennsylvania's August Burns Red have a solid claim on being one of the most important bands who brought the genre of metalcore to the masses in the first few years of last decade. Almost ten years on and the band is still at it, having released their fourth studio album "Leveler" via Solid State Records in June last year. With their debut Australian tour alongside Blessthefall and Sydney's Northlane kicking off this week, we caught up with the band's bassist Dustin Davidson to talk heavy music, bible references and making a dick of yourself in front of NOFX.
