The Bloody Saint Patrick’s Tour

When Hell Ascends Tonight hails from Hellertown, Pennsylvania. Striving to continually hone their own style of heavy music, they have a penchant for blending together elements of deathcore, hardcore, metalcore, electronic and slam with crushing breakdowns aplenty while ensuring to bring energy to any stage they step on.

Diamonds to Dust was formed in 2012 in Poughkeepsie, New York, with the vision of bringing together musicians from different backgrounds to create powerful, meaningful music. The band has evolved through multiple lineup changes, but its core mission remains the same—to deliver an intense fusion of Christian metalcore, post-hardcore, and deathcore, all while sharing stories of faith, struggle, and redemption.

Founded by Barry Hogue (guitar, vocals) alongside the original lineup, the band wrote and released their first single, Ashes to Ashes, but soon disbanded due to creative differences. In 2013, Barry revived the project, drawing inspiration from From First to Last, A Day to Remember, Breaking Benjamin, Chunk! No, Captain Chunk!, Killswitch Engage, and For Today. With this renewed direction, Diamonds to Dust released their debut album, Faith Through Trials (2014), under Manifest Records.

Initially, the band embraced Christian elements but did not label itself as a Christian band. However, in 2016, after lineup shifts and personal growth, Diamonds to Dust officially became a Christian band, aligning their message with their faith and deepening their spiritual impact through music.
