Get ready for a night of unrelenting energy as NONPOINT brings their 25 Years of Statement and 20 Years of To The Pain celebration to Pop’s in Sauget, IL on Friday, August 29th. This stop on the second leg of their Painful Statements Tour promises to deliver a set packed with fan-favorite tracks, deep cuts, and explosive medleys designed to leave a lasting impact.
NONPOINT shared, “We’re celebrating the 20th Anniversary of To The Pain and 25th of Statement with a special set where every song from both albums is represented – whether performed in full or fused into one of our explosive live medleys.”
“Fans from Part 1 called it one of the most unforgettable Nonpoint shows ever,” they added. “We’re doing it all again… and we’re bringing Upon A Burning Body and Autumn Kings with us. Heartsick replaces AK for the last four shows. Don’t wait – these shows will move FAST.”
One band that’s sure to leave a mark on this lineup is San Antonio’s own Upon a Burning Body. Known for fusing deathcore brutality with Texas swagger, they’ve carved out their own lane in modern metal. From their early days on Sumerian Records to now a fully independent artist, they’ve built a reputation for pummeling audiences with genre-blending heaviness and undeniable hooks.
Texas metal titans Upon a Burning Body have officially returned as independent artists with the release of their brutal new single, “Dragged Through Glass.” Premiering April 11th and mixed and mastered by Christopher Mora at Warhorse Studios, the track delivers a vicious sonic assault that reflects themes of psychological fragmentation, inner transformation, and the pain of personal rebirth. With lyrics like “The old skin must shed / Recalling sanity” and “Silence is deafening / Pulling from glass to repurpose,” the song explores the torment of breaking free from conformity and reclaiming identity in a fractured world. “Dragged Through Glass” not only marks a bold new chapter for the band but also proves that Upon a Burning Body is forging ahead with even greater ferocity – on their own terms.
Danny Leal, the powerhouse vocalist of Upon a Burning Body, appeared on the Vulgar Display of Podcast for an in-depth and unfiltered conversation. Known for his commanding stage presence, aggressive vocal delivery, and versatility, Danny opened up about the band’s journey, changes within his personal life, working with Ice-T and the raw emotion behind their songs.
If you missed Upon a Burning Body the last time they tore up the stage at Red Flag in St Louis, you seriously missed out – but here’s your chance to make up for it. Don’t sleep on their return to the area as they bring the fire to Pop’s in Sauget, IL on Friday, August 29th, alongside NONPOINT and Heartstick. This all-ages show is your opportunity to catch one of metal’s most intense live acts in one of the Midwest’s most iconic venues. Doors open at 7PM – be there early, because this one’s going to hit hard.
