SONGS
FOR BURNING LOVERS
Righto. I know I’m way behind the times with this one, again.
As I say, I get ‘em when I get ‘em. Found out about this kinda by accident. Not
being as linked in as I used to be, things filter through at different rates on
the radar.
Anyway, me and a mate
were having a browse in Resist Records recently and it was playing. Both our
ears pricked up independently , after a while my mate asks what was playing.
“Burning Love’s first album”. I looked
back through the racks until I
found it.
Haven’t heard anything like this in ages. Got it home and
kept playing it for about a week straight. I could slot in superlatives and
comparisons but at the end – This is hardcore that kicks arse and ROCKS. It rocks, it rolls, it punks, it hardcores. Look,
maybe I’m just getting carried away and it’s simply great just fuckin’ rock ‘n
roll! Throaty vocals, filthy guitars, and It’s all pretty much full tilt until
the end of side two. Get to the end of side one and “miserable sound” shows
they’re not afraid of turning out a (fuckin’ good) chunky metal riff either, which it’s kind of built
up to by this stage. It fades out. Turn
it over, and it fades back in - pretty
neat. The momentum continues on side two........ Great fun. I challenge you to
listen to it and see if you can restrain yourself from bobbing your head to it.
Great vinyl package to boot. Soundwise there’s plenty of
oomph. Love the fade in from side one to side two. Cover – wise simple and
effective. There’s a lyric sheet (and some of the lyrics are great) – “Ignore
the doctor’s orders and this is what I get”, (Gain). This one’s one Blue vinyl
as well.
