A Day To Remember: The Least Anticipated Album Tour 

ADTR Puts on a Show to Remember 

A Day To Remember, easily one of the most popular mainstream metal bands, took the stage at Red Hat Amphitheater in Raleigh, NC, this past Tuesday (7/2/24). True to their name, they put on “A Show to Remember.” Accompanied by Pain of Truth, Four Year Strong, and The Story So Far, ADTR wowed not only me but also the thousands of people in attendance with their iconic songs and a party-like atmosphere. My first experience seeing ADTR was in 2021 at the Blue Ridge Rock Festival. At the time, I was not a fan of the metal scene, yet I discovered that just about anyone can have a good time at an ADTR show. From commanding rhythms and beats to CO2 cannons, pyrotechnics, and even beach balls, the show was an intoxicating euphoria. Now, three years later, I am such a big fan of the metal scene and genre that I am volunteering as a mixed media concert journalist just so I can attend more shows. I can’t help but feel that my initial experience with ADTR played a large part in that development.

ADTR-2

While ADTR may lean slightly more towards mainstream/pop metal, they definitely showcase an affinity for the heavier side, as evidenced by the first band of the night. Opening the show was Pain of Truth, a band quickly making a name for itself in the hardcore scene. Led by frontman Michael Smith, their set was a visceral, adrenaline-fueled display of anger, attitude, energy, and rage. The lineup includes Nik Hansen and Ridge Rhine on guitars, Chris Rini on drums, and Zach Stachura on bass. POT-2 If you’re curious about their pedigree, just look through their features; with names like Terror, Bad Seed, King Nine, Billy Club Sandwich, and many others, it’s evident that this band is destined to leave a mark on the scene. It was clear from the start of their set that those who had arrived in time for the opener were there specifically for Pain of Truth, not just to secure a good spot for the main event. In terms of moshing and reckless engagement, Pain of Truth undoubtedly ignited the most activity I saw in the audience all night.

FYS-9

Taking the stage next was Four Year Strong, a band technically categorized as American easycore/pop-punk from Worcester, Massachusetts. The four-man band consists of Alan Day and Dan O’Connor on guitars and vocals, Joe Weiss on bass, and Jake Massucco on drums. Their most recent album, “Brain Pain,” was released by Pure Noise Records on February 28th, 2020.

FYS-1

They kicked off their set with the title track “Brain Pain,” and proceeded to play a variety of their tracks, including the song” uncooked” from their not-yet-released album “Analysis Paralysis,” due out on August 9th, 2024. The crowd responded energetically to the new material, showcasing the band’s ability to blend catchy pop-punk melodies with hardcore intensity. 

TSSF-1

The Story So Far, hailing from Walnut Creek, California, took the stage after Four Year Strong. Named after a 2002 song by New Found Glory, with whom they later toured in 2012, the band has gained recognition in the pop-punk realm. Their LP “Under Soil and Dirt” was ranked in Rock Sound’s list of The 51 Most Essential Pop Punk Albums of All Time, alongside other iconic bands like Simple Plan, All American Rejects, Green Day, and The Offspring. However, I found their performance to be lackluster and unenergetic, a sentiment echoed by many fans post-show. Lead vocalist Parker Cannon spent the majority of the set with a subdued demeanor, clutching the microphone and his pants, showing little emotion. This was further reflected in my photographs from the event, where he appeared detached throughout the performance.

ADTR-8

ADTR was everything I remembered and everything I hoped for. The audience was thrilled with anticipation, and the energy was palpable. Just like the last two times I saw them, they kicked off with a bang, literally. Confetti cannons fired during their opening song “Sticks & Bricks,” setting the tone for the exhilarating show to come. ADTR’s history is as rich as its discography. They signed what many called a deal with the devil with Victory Records in 2007, and were notoriously mistreated by the label’s owner, Tony Brummel. Credited with ending this mistreatment, they won their lawsuit against Victory, which eventually forced Brummel to sell the company. They continued to release music independently, proving with their album “Common Courtesy” and hits like “Right Back At It Again” that they didn’t need major label backing to succeed. Recent legal troubles led to Josh Woodard’s departure from the band, and he has been replaced by an unnamed and unidentifiable guitarist for their “Least Anticipated Album Tour.” Despite my searches on the band’s Instagram, website, and the internet, I couldn’t find any information about this mysterious guitarist who appears in all the show photos.

ADTR-7

After my three songs were up and I was permitted to re-enter the venue, I was eager to recapture the euphoria I had felt previously, now as a more committed fan of the scene. It was upon re-entering that I noticed the venue’s segregation. For me, concerts are a place of equality—especially rock, metal, and hardcore shows—and it didn’t sit right with me that the majority of the audience was excluded from “The Pit” where moshing and crowd surfing take place, simply because they didn’t purchase upgrade tickets. Perhaps I’m more accustomed to bands at festivals or smaller venues, but being unable to get close to the action and feel the energy seemed unfair. While I stayed and enjoyed ADTR from a distance, I found myself constantly on my tiptoes, trying to peer over into the VIP area to gauge the size of the mosh pit or catch some cool crowd surfing. Speaking of which, if you’ve never been to an ADTR concert, they have a unique bit where they encourage the audience to stand/surf on top of someone who is already crowd surfing—a staple of their performances. I believe this division in the crowd is likely a venue regulation, not a tour ploy to make more money.

ADTR-12

In the end, this night with A Day To Remember and the rest of the lineup at Red Hat Amphitheater was a full-throttle blast from start to finish, reminding me why I fell in love with the metal and hardcore scene. Despite the slight disappointment with the venue’s segregated sections, the concerts showed that music—especially the kind with guitars cranked up and drums that hit hard—still has the power to unite us. Each band brought something unique to the stage, from Pain of Truth’s raw ferocity to ADTR’s anthemic bangers that had us all reaching for the sky, even if from a distance. And while the mysterious new guitarist for ADTR added an element of intrigue, the night was ultimately about the music and the community it fosters. As the lights went down and the final echoes of the encore faded, I walked away with my ears ringing, my heart full, and a renewed sense of connection to this wildly pulsating world of metal and hardcore music. No matter the barriers, the spirit of the pit—unyielding and wild—lives on in every chord struck and every lyric belted. Tonight, just like that first time at Blue Ridge, I was reminded why this music, this scene, is a relentless force in my life.

    ### The Ultimate Guide to Services Cleaning: Why It Matters and How to Choose the Best

    In today’s fast-paced world, maintaining a clean and organized space is more important than ever. Whether it’s your home, office, or commercial property, *services cleaning* offers a practical solution to keep your environment spotless without the hassle. This article explores the benefits of professional cleaning services, what to look for when hiring a team, and why investing in these services is a smart choice for both individuals and businesses.

    #### What Are Services Cleaning?
    *Services cleaning* refers to professional cleaning solutions provided by trained experts who handle everything from routine tidying to deep sanitation. These services can be tailored to residential spaces, workplaces, or specialized facilities like gyms, restaurants, or medical offices. Unlike DIY cleaning, professional services bring expertise, advanced tools, and eco-friendly products to ensure a thorough and efficient job.

    #### The Benefits of Professional Services Cleaning
    Hiring a *services cleaning* provider comes with a range of advantages that go beyond just a shiny floor or dust-free shelves. Here’s why they’re worth considering:

    1. **Time-Saving Convenience**
    Life is busy, and cleaning often falls to the bottom of the priority list. Professional cleaning services free up your schedule, letting you focus on work, family, or relaxation while experts handle the dirt and grime.

    2. **Healthier Living Spaces**
    Dust, allergens, and bacteria can build up over time, affecting air quality and health. *Services cleaning* teams use specialized techniques and products to eliminate these hazards, creating a safer environment for you and your loved ones.

    3. **Enhanced Productivity for Businesses**
    A clean workspace isn’t just aesthetically pleasing—it boosts employee morale and efficiency. Regular *services cleaning* for offices ensures a professional atmosphere that leaves a lasting impression on clients and staff alike.

    4. **Customized Solutions**
    From carpet cleaning to window washing, professional services offer tailored packages to meet your specific needs. Whether it’s a one-time deep clean or ongoing maintenance, you get exactly what your space requires.

    #### How to Choose the Right Services Cleaning Provider
    Not all cleaning services are created equal. To ensure you’re getting the best value for your money, here are some key factors to consider when selecting a *services cleaning* company:

    – **Reputation and Reviews**
    Look for providers with positive feedback from past clients. Online reviews and testimonials can give you insight into their reliability and quality of work.

    – **Experience and Expertise**
    A team with years of experience in *services cleaning* will know how to tackle tough stains, delicate surfaces, and industry-specific challenges (e.g., sanitizing a healthcare facility).

    – **Eco-Friendly Options**
    If sustainability matters to you, opt for a service that uses green cleaning products and practices. This not only benefits the planet but also reduces exposure to harsh chemicals.

    – **Flexible Scheduling**
    The best *services cleaning* companies work around your timetable, offering evening, weekend, or emergency cleaning options to minimize disruption.

    – **Transparent Pricing**
    Avoid surprises by choosing a provider with clear, upfront costs. Ask for a detailed quote that outlines what’s included in the service.

    #### When Should You Invest in Services Cleaning?
    There’s no one-size-fits-all answer to when you need professional *services cleaning*. However, here are some common scenarios where it makes sense:
    – **Moving In or Out**: A deep clean ensures your new home is fresh or your old space is spotless for the next occupant.
    – **Post-Renovation**: Construction dust and debris require heavy-duty cleaning that’s best left to the pros.
    – **Seasonal Refresh**: Spring cleaning or pre-holiday tidying can benefit from expert help.
    – **Business Upkeep**: Regular cleaning keeps commercial spaces presentable and hygienic year-round.

    #### The Future of Services Cleaning
    The *services cleaning* industry is evolving with technology and changing consumer needs. Robotic vacuums, UV sanitation tools, and smart scheduling apps are making professional cleaning more efficient and accessible. As demand grows, companies are also focusing on sustainability, offering biodegradable products and energy-efficient methods to appeal to eco-conscious clients.

    #### Final Thoughts
    Investing in *services cleaning* is more than just outsourcing a chore—it’s a step toward a cleaner, healthier, and more enjoyable space. Whether you’re a homeowner looking to reclaim your weekends or a business owner aiming to impress clients, professional cleaning services deliver unmatched results. Take the time to research and choose a reputable provider, and you’ll see why *services cleaning* is a game-changer for modern living. Ready to transform your space?
