ABOUT CHINESEBURN
The work of many hands & some lengthy time has brought forth 'BURNING SENSATIONS'; the long awaited debut album from London based Chineseburn.
The first recording to be released on the band's own label, 'LIGHTNING STRIKES'. It's a debut that concentrates on each and every sound, whether sorrowful, joyous, confused, visceral or just plain bizarre. Here lie eleven gem like glimpses of the collective soul and imagination of the band.
Taking inspiration from old-fashioned country, avant-garde psychedelic rock and pure pop, Chineseburn are a band that could soundtrack any event, from a stoop party to a heart-wrenching break-up.
With songs that range from the raucous floor filling live favourite of 'King Of The Line', to 'Close Your Eyes', a piece too charmingly heartbreaking for unguarded, casual listening.
It was always going to be a challenge to transform the dynamic layering of Chineseburn's multi-instrument, multi emotion sound into an album of songs but the challenge has been met with great gusto.
