Better Lovers, the metalcore supergroup comprised of ex-members of beloved Buffalo, NY metalcore band Every Time I Die and deathcore bruisers Fit For An Autopsy, etc., have just announced their first live performance since parting ways with Greg Puciato (ex-The Dillinger Escape Plan) this past February.
The band have confirmed they’ll be playing the 2027 edition of the annual ‘Download Festival‘, which will be held from June 09th-13th at Castle Donington, UK. While that show confirmation shows signs of the group’s forward progress, it would appear that the band aren’t yet ready to unveil their newest addition. The below post shared on their social media today (November 12th) stated, “Performing at @downloadfest 2027. Don’t ask us who our new singer is.”
While fans had hoped that Josh Scogin (ex-The Chariot/’68) might be the one to take up that role, Scogin himself dismissed that talk this past March. Upon parting ways with Puciato, Better Lovers indicated they intended to soldier on with a new studio album as they hunted for a new vocalist. Given today’s developments, it would appear they have found one.
