Coverage by Chris Sturk

On November 28th, 2025, Australian metalcore band Make Them Suffer took the stage at the Ritz Music Venue in Raleigh, NC as direct support for Fit For A King’s Lonely God Tour. From the moment they stepped into the lights, the band came out swinging with a ferocity that instantly ignited the crowd.

Their set was a relentless wave of breakdowns, soaring choruses, and symphonic flourishes, showcasing the unique blend of brutality and melody that has made them a standout in the modern metalcore scene. The mosh pit never stopped moving—fans slammed, spun, and surged forward as each track pushed the energy higher.

The band’s commanding stage presence was undeniable. Vocalist Sean Harmanis delivered guttural growls and piercing screams with precision, while Alex Reade’s clean vocals and keyboard melodies added an ethereal layer that balanced the chaos. Guitarists Nick McLernon and Jaya Jeffery locked in tight riffs, and drummer Jordan Mather drove the set with thunderous precision.

By the end of their performance, the crowd was drenched in sweat, exhilarated, and primed for Fit For A King’s headlining set. Make Them Suffer proved once again why they are one of the most dynamic and emotionally charged acts in the genre.
