Pennsylvania's standout August Burns Red have inked another deal with their longtime partners in Fearless Records, and now celebrate the occasion by dropping the hard-hitting Behemoth — a sure as hell fan-favorite moving forward. Chock-full of big moments, August Burns Red continue to cement their worth among the metalcore hall of fame with another massive track primed for a live rendition.

JB Brubaker (guitar) comments on the track:

"'Behemoth' is a song that probably went through more revisions and changes than any song we've ever written. While frustrating at times, the conversations and re-writes were worth the effort as we collectively feel very proud of how this song turned out. I believe it's one of the heaviest and most raw songs we've ever delivered."

Jake Luhrs (vocals) adds:

"Lyrically, 'Behemoth' speaks about the realization of past pains living through present actions in life. With the determination to face this reality, a process of healing and breaking old ways leads to a rebirth. It's about cutting the ties to your past, giving it no space to live in the present, and inevitably, changing the course of your life."
