BiografieThe dilemma of 21st century hard rock and metal: Bands bug with synthetic soundscapes to dub their deficient riffs. Juvenile hypermetalbands piss off their audience with their plagiarism. Bands lose touch to the veritable expression and true feeling of Rock'n'Roll and dilute this once so wild and aggressive music with trivial and weepy material. When BURDEN was founded by Saint D. (g) and Dave (dr.) there was no doubt that they did not want to be part of this so called rock scene. Instead of trying to work with too many alien influences, their focus was clearly set from the beginning: to lead good old Rock-Music back to its roots without losing touch to the presence and future. There can only be one goal! To bring back the honest and pure feeling that once was associated with rock music!



The founding year has been exclusively spent rehearsing and creating songs since BURDEN has never been about snapshots at all. In the course of time and after lots and lots of self-critical songwriting some very intense and authentic tunes emerged. But how to create real smashers when there is no pressure on your guts? It took some time to find a suitable and tight bassist. Fortunately they met Johnny Clash after some months and his impressive skills were overwhelming. In summer 2008, Canadian vocalist Thorsten was recruited to join the BURDEN army. His vocals have shot the musical standard on another level. Thorsten’s powerful and variable way of singing shows the real face of Burden – a face other bands would kill for! Marcus is the last but definitely not the least name to mention. While contributing to the very drive of the BURDEN sound on tour, he truly became a good friend and the last piece of the puzzle to bring this heavy thing called BURDEN to its completion. Needless to say, that the music business soon became aware of the band’s qualities. In early 2010, the band started to co-operate with Germany’s finest Van/Soulfood. Both parties are looking forward to working together successfully and the first result of their partnership is now unleashed: the7” “Man of no Account”.
