Bury Your Dead guitarist Eric Ellis was a victim of a random attack by 6 individuals following the band's set at The Rave in Milwaukee, WI. Eric was held at gunpoint while the men hit him multiple times with a baseball bat and hammer. Previous reports of a robbery are false, as the Milwaukee police department has classified it as a "gang initiation".
Despite suffering what otherswould consider serious injuries Eric and the rest of Bury Your Dead will move forward and continue with their tour alongside Hellyeah and take that into their headlining run with Emmure, The Warriors, and With Blood Comes Cleansing.

Bury Your Dead also brought back producer Jason Suecof (Trivium, God Forbid), continuing with the theme of tradition.
