Big Ass Truck I.E.

Big Ass Truck I.E. bring their North American headline tour to Ante Up on Wednesday, October 28, with the show starting at 6 PM. They're coming from the Inland Empire in Southern California, a hardcore crew that describes itself as a "wrecking crew on bald tires" rather than a hardcore band, and they've built a reputation for chaotic, no-holds-barred live shows.

They're touring behind PUSHED BEYOND THE BRINK, their latest release on Nuclear Blast Records, which follows 2025's pit anthem BACK WHEEL STOMP. Frontman Abel Abarca called this run "perhaps the biggest tour ever conceived," and it's a long one: the Denver date is part of a North American headline tour that also takes them to Warped Tour dates in Montreal and Orlando and Furnace Fest in Birmingham. The band talks about their sound in terms of weight, promising "12-ton riffs" and big energy.

They aren't coming alone. The bill is stacked with special guests Chamber, Mugshot, Load Tha Nine, Surfaced, Restrictor Plate, and Lie, so there's plenty to hear before the headliner takes the stage. Between the opening acts and the main set, it's a full night of heavy music.

Ante Up is at 2130 S Platte River Dr in Denver, and the show kicks off at 6 PM on Wednesday, October 28.
