Upon a Burning Body is an American metal band from San Antonio, Texas, formed in 2005. The band currently consists of vocalist Danny Leal, guitarist Ruben Alvarez, Bassist Rey Martinez and drummer Tito Felix. Their second studio album, Red. White. Green., debuted at No. 105 on the Billboard 200 in 2012. Their third studio album The World Is My Enemy Now, released on 12 August 2014, performed even better, debuting at No. 39 on the Billboard 200 of that year. The band released their 4th studio album Straight from the Barrio on October 28th, 2016. The band is currently signed to Sumerian Records.

In July 2014 the band received negative attention for a publicity stunt to promote their 3rd album, "The World Is My Enemy Now", where the band reported that frontman Danny Leal was missing. The band later posted the album cover for their yet unreleased 3rd album, which showed Leal tied up in the background, thus revealing the whole angle to be a joke. Since then, the band refused to apologize.
