ROCK BAND"

CHARGING TO CONQUER

This song is neither an accusation nor a confession, and least of all an adventure, for death is not an adventure for those who stand face to face with it. It will try simply tell of a generation of men who even though they may have escaped its shells, were destroyed by war…

The nature of the flame is never to remain the same, As it flickers and dances to illuminate the night, With Ferocious scorching brings death in its plight, Soothing to the eye, yet sinister to the touch, It’s greatest gift is then just to watch.

HISTORY

The fundamentals of The Burning lie in the undeniable power and emotion of rock ’n roll. 

The fire first ignited in the 1990s when seasoned guitarist and song writer Steve Kay made a choice to unleash some serious musical mayhem on the general public and share a big piece of the passion that has always been burning inside of him since he was a young man. 

Although the line-up has changed over The Burning’s 20-year career, the passion to present an uncompromising set of songs and create a captivating stage show has always been in the forefront for the members. 

The current line up consists of seasoned musicians who are all accomplished in their own right, they are: 

Steve Kay on lead and rhythm guitar (ex-Ragnarok and Helter Skelter)

 

Kyle Shoesmith on drums (ex-Hate Speech, Qamata and The Question)

Leon Kruger on bass guitar (ex-Anubis)

Glenn “Scarthroat” Unger on vocals (ex-Sanctum, Chemically Sharpened and The Question).
