After a couple years of fucking around with various members and a few really good songs, Brian Hopper (Hellshock, ex-Detestation, Atrocious Madness, Defiance,etc), Marty Pants (ex-Nux Vomica), Scott Goto (Defiance, ex-Deadly Ultra Sound), Jason Roberts (Abandon, Feedling, Splatterhouse, ex-Fall Of The Bastards, Dekapitator, etc), and Chris Carey (Skullsplitter, ex-Poison Idea, Religious War, Dead Conspiracy, etc) finally came together out of love for 80's heavy rock n' roll, early metal and punk rock. The lack of bands doing this style made it all more exciting and important to play. After a year going hard, Chris Carey decided it was in his best interest not to continue playing in Burning Leather. No hard feelings at all, just not the right time. So, we asked our old buddy Kelly Halliburton (Defiance, Pierced Arrows, ex-Detestation, Resist, Deprived, etc. who, incidentally helped write a few of those early songs) to play full time. Still selling our demo, we also have 2 split 7"s in the works( 1 w/G.A.T.E.S and 1 w/The Slowmotions), a 12" to be recorded soon and a tentative west coast tour. ...and the train kept a rollin'!
