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.

    Los esteroides ayudan a reducir la grasa corporal, lo que
    permite que los músculos se vuelvan más visibles y definidos.
    Esto se debe a la capacidad de los esteroides para acelerar
    el metabolismo y aumentar la quema de grasa,
    lo que resulta en una apariencia más “cortada”
    y muscularmente definida. Después de tomar oxandrolona, se pueden observar cambios significativos en el cuerpo.
    Estos cambios incluyen un aumento en la masa muscular, una reducción en la grasa
    corporal y una mejora en la fuerza y ​​el rendimiento físico.

    Sin embargo, es importante tener en cuenta que estos cambios no se producirán sin una dieta adecuada y un régimen de ejercicios.
    Los esteroides son medicamentos potentes que
    pueden ayudar a tratar una variedad de afecciones de salud.

    El único beneficio potencial de bajar la dosis sería evitar una caída de energía; sin embargo, esto no es comúnmente
    reportado en los usuarios de Clen. Imita los efectos de
    construcción muscular y quema de grasa del Winstrol, pero sin efectos secundarios no deseados (como la virilización).
    Con Winstrol, las mujeres pueden esperar una reducción appreciable
    de grasa gracias a sus propiedades para quemar grasa, al
    mismo tiempo que aumentan la masa muscular magra. No se trata de grandes incrementos de tamaño,
    sino de lograr un aspecto más magro y fuerte.

    En última instancia, la persona pierde peso, pero el aumento de masa muscular
    le da al cuerpo la forma y el atractivo necesarios. Cuando se toman por prescripción médica, cualquier cese en el consumo debe ir supervisado también por un profesional sanitario y
    hacerse de forma progresiva. Últimamente han surgido nuevos tipos de esteroides anabólicos
    de diseño (DS), muy populares por su bajo precio y la facilidad de acceso en el mercado negro.
    Su consumo se relaciona con daños a nivel genético que podrían aumentar el riesgo de algunos tipos de cáncer y alteraciones cromosómicas.
    Además de tomar Clomid y Nolvadex, también es
    recomendable tomar suplementos que ayuden a proteger el hígado y los riñones, como la silimarina y la N-acetilcisteína.
    También es importante seguir una dieta adecuada y mantener un régimen de entrenamiento constante para
    evitar la pérdida de masa muscular. Debes tener en cuenta que
    los efectos secundarios, si tomamos esteroides anabolizantes sin control médico,
    son frecuentes.
    Si el propio nivel de los estrógenos del cuerpo
    es extraordinariamente alto ocurre un crecimiento no deseado de las glándulas
    del pecho. Sin embargo, en la mayoría de los hombres que usan Nolvadex y en mujeres saludables este no es el caso.
    A pesar de esto, Nolvadex es usado por muchos más hombres culturistas que mujeres.
    Debido a que esta condición puede ser dolorosa y puede originar posibles
    daños y perjuicios, la única solución sensata es cambiar a una
    dosificación más baja o descontinuar el compuesto.
    Las atletas hembras deben usar Proviron con cautela debido a que
    no pueden excluirse los posibles efectos secundarios androgénicos.
    Aunque la HCG causa un aumento rápido y significativo del nivel endógeno de testosterona
    en el plasma sanguíneo, desgraciadamente no es un remedio perfecto para prevenir la pérdida de
    fuerza y masa muscular al ultimate de un tratamiento de
    esteroides.
    Esto ocasiona un elevado nivel de producción endógeno de testosterona (el propio nivel
    de la testosterona del cuerpo). Clomid, pone en movimiento el proceso de liberación hormonal, estimula la liberación de gonadotropinas y dispara la ovulación en mujeres con ciclos no ovulatorios las cuales son estériles debido a esta deficiencia.
    Es muy importante usar protectores hepáticos
    y hormonales durante un ciclo y mucho más importante aún es el
    Submit Ciclo que la gente en muchas cosas lo olvida.
    Algunas estimulan la producción de testosterona, otras incrementan el metabolismo basal, otras bloquean la enzima aromatasa y otras a los
    estrógenos. Cuéntenos un poco acerca de usted y, de acuerdo a sus intereses, recibirá
    correos electrónicos con la información más reciente y los recursos necesarios para vivir una vida plena y para conectarse con otras personas.

    He llegado a ver dosis de 150 mg de Clomifeno al día, algo absurdo,
    ya que con 50mg tienes suficiente. Si por el contrario, tu objetivo es verte bien y estar saludable, entonces es de
    las peores decisiones que puedes tomar. El motivo, o razón, debería
    ser que amas tu cuerpo, que lo cuidas, y por resultado,
    tienes un cuerpo atractivo, tonificado, natural y definido.
    Si decides usarlos, vas a ganar más fuerza, más volumen muscular,
    más delgadez, más … todo. En el estudio mencionado, se muestra que un atleta avanzado creció sixteen veces más que si lo hiciera naturalmente.
    Al principio podría parecer que los esteroides hacen las cosas más
    simples, pero esto no es así.
    Esto puede ser beneficioso tanto para atletas profesionales como
    para entusiastas del fitness que buscan mejorar su desempeño en el gimnasio
    o en competiciones deportivas. Aunque los corticoides no son tan nocivos como los esteroides
    anabólicos, tienen muchos efectos secundarios, incluso
    pueden debilitar los huesos y causar cataratas.
    Winstrol (estanozolol) es un esteroide de corte que se utiliza
    para aumentar la masa muscular magra al tiempo que disminuye la masa
    grasa. También tiene un efecto diurético, secando el cuerpo y mejorando la definición muscular.
    La decisión sobre si debe comenzar a usar esteroides anabólicos depende
    enteramente de usted. Muchas personas con experiencia
    recomiendan que no empiece a usar AAS a menos que tenga 20 años o más y entrene en un gimnasio durante al menos 3 años.
    Esto se debe al hecho de que antes de los 20 años existe la posibilidad de que
    su sistema endocrino no esté completamente desarrollado y usted simplemente no está mentalmente preparado y puede arrepentirse de esta decisión en el futuro.

    Debe ser utilizado en combinación con un estilo de
    vida saludable para obtener los mejores resultados.

    Además, la oxandrolona también puede aumentar la producción de
    glóbulos rojos en el cuerpo, lo que mejora la capacidad de transporte de oxígeno.
    Un gran debate en el culturismo es si es mejor el culturismo pure o el uso de esteroides.
    Algunos argumentan que los esteroides sólo permiten a las personas llegar
    a un cierto punto y les llevaría demasiado tiempo llegar allí
    de forma pure, mientras que otros dicen que el culturismo pure no produce ningún resultado notable.
    Hay muchos execs y contras en ambos lados, por lo que es mejor investigar por su cuenta antes de decidir qué opción es mejor para usted.
    Hay varias formas de tomar esteroides y muchas opiniones
    diferentes sobre cuál es la mejor.
    Winstrol es el nombre popular del anabólico conocido como Eztanozolol o Stanozolol, basado en la
    Dihidrotestosterona (DHT), se puede consumir tanto oral como por
    vía intramuscular inyectable, es más well-liked su forma oral.

    El clenbuterol es posiblemente la mejor opción para las mujeres que
    se preocupan más por quemar grasa que por construir
    músculo. El Anavar y el Primobolan son los esteroides más comunes entre las mujeres que
    desean evitar la virilización. Loopy Bulk ofrece ofertas generosas, lo que permite a
    las mujeres ahorrar dinero, en comparación con la compra de esteroides
    caros como Primobolan y Anavar en el mercado negro (que puede costar cientos de dólares por ciclo).
    Este es un ciclo de corte típico utilizado por las
    modelos de bikini o culturistas que desean quemar grasa.
    Primobolan está disponible en forma oral o inyectable (Primobolan depot) y favorece la pérdida de grasa
    gracias a su fuerte afinidad por los receptores de andrógenos, lo que aumenta la
    lipólisis (pérdida de grasa).
    Este tipo de seguimiento es especialmente útil para
    aquellos que están considerando realizar un ciclo de esteroides y desean tener una concept clara de los resultados
    potenciales. Las alternativas naturales funcionan imitando
    compuestos esteroides naturales o aumentando
    los niveles de testosterona en el cuerpo. TestoPrime es un suplemento diseñado para aumentar de manera pure la producción de testosterona en el cuerpo.
    Proporciona las vitaminas y minerales necesarios para que
    el organismo produzca hormonas por sí mismo, sin recurrir a inyecciones
    de esteroides sintéticos. La verdad es que
    los resultados dependen de tu genética y de otros factores como tus comidas y el tipo de entrenamientos.
