Atlanta, get ready to feel it in your chest. Wage War is bringing the "It Calls Me By Name Tour" to The Masquerade on May 29, 2026, and if you know anything about this band's live show, you already know this is not one to miss. Heavy music fans in the ATL are about to be treated to a night of bone-rattling riffs, anthemic breakdowns, and the kind of raw energy that only comes from a band firing on all cylinders.

Wage War: Heavy Music's Most Relentless Force

Wage War has spent the better part of a decade cementing themselves as one of the most dominant forces in modern metalcore. Hailing from Gainesville, Florida, these guys have built a massive following not just in the Southeast, but across the entire heavy music world. Their ability to blend brutal heaviness with massive, emotionally charged hooks has earned them a fanbase that shows up — and shows up loud.

From breakout tracks like "Alive" and "Grave" to the evolution they've shown across albums like Deadweight, Pressure, and Manic, Wage War has never stopped pushing forward. The "It Calls Me By Name Tour" signals another chapter — and Atlanta is going to be right in the middle of it.

Nevertel: The Perfect Support Act

Joining Wage War on this run is Nevertel, a rising act that brings serious momentum to an already stacked bill. If you haven't caught Nevertel live yet, this is your chance. Expect a support set that does everything a great opening act should — warm up the crowd, turn heads, and make you a fan before the headliner even takes the stage.
