Red, however, have created a captivating, memorable, and most of all huge release with of Beauty and Rage.” Echoes NewReleaseTuesday.com: “Showcasing Red’s signature brutal guitar riffs, darkly shimmering string section and introspective, high-concept lyrics alongside a mastery of melody achieved more recently, of Beauty and Rage is a triumph in Red’s breathtaking discography.”

Over the last decade, the RED has performed alongside such artists as Hinder, 3 Doors Down, Creed, Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Godsmack, Sevendust, Drowning Pool, Flyleaf, Seether, Papa Roach, Buckcherry, Saving Abel, Stained, Third Day, Switchfoot, Skillet and others.
