As Cities Burn is a post-hardcore (early material)/progressive rock (later) band from Mandeville, LA that formed in 2002.

As an unsigned act, the group accomplished impressive success touring and selling thousands of copies of their two EPs. Their success drew the attention of Solid State Records, who signed them in 2004.

ACB released its first full length album, Son, I Loved You At Your Darkest, on June 21 of 2005, and was featured in Solid State's Young Bloods Tour with The Chariot, Showbread, and He Is Legend.

Earlier in the year, the band released a statement saying that vocalist TJ was getting married and leaving the band, so they decided to call it quits. However, partially through their 'farewell tour', they decided to stay together, but eventually T.J. decided to depart from the band and go his own way. They are currently writing for their sophomore full-length, which they intend to record in January and February of 2007, and continue to keep a close relationship with T.J.

The band has announced that their new album, "Come Now Sleep" will be released August 14, 2007, on Tooth and Nail Records.
Different from their previous recordings, however, the genre of their new release has been classified by the band themselves as Rock / Indie / Progressive.
