"Front man/guitarist Brandon Adams has a pretty soothing voice when he isn't yelling." - Heather M., Yes! Weekly
The S. Burns you have come to know or stumble upon has been a band since August 2004. Seth answered an ad posted by Brandon. He was in. Carlos had already been in. And since then, we've been through 5 years of both significant activity and relative obscurity.
The band plays regionally with occasional forays into other worlds. We've covered a lot of bases with shows at your standard dive bars, Strip Club parking lots, keg parties, local Universities, and friendly gatherings in general. We appear in written publications from time to time and pop up on the area's radio stations as well.
A pair of seven-song albums, Meanwhile at the Burn Pile and Maximum Wage, were released in 2008 and 2009 respectively. The two differ in production value with Burn Pile being a more stylized portrait of the band and the latter cutting more of a recession sound yet weighing in with improved material.
You can pick these up at My Favorite Things Records on Glenwood Avenue, Maya Art Gallery on Tate Street, at a show, or contact us on here.
In addition you can buy Burn Pile online by clicking the cover art below.
I remember looking through hoards of Alt. bands on myspace a few years ago and stumbled upon you. I listened to Politicker over and over and remember the creepy Marilyn Manson/Oddworld Inhabitants-esque styled pictures that went with the early songs. Now, years later, I log into myspace and listen to you all over again. And I bought your CD to boot. You guys really do rock, and I hope you get more attention!
hey hope all is well! just put up a ton of work, adding hundreds of photos this week from the summer, i'm booking in the greensboro, north carolina area ONLY from august 1st through 17th would you be interested in working together?

Hey, to my surprise I just recieved Maximum Wage and Meanwhile at the Burn Pile in the mail...I had totally forgotten we even spoke of it. Listening to Maximum Wage for the first time at the moment, and I need to say, I'm quite fucking impressed, quite.fucking.impressed.
allo, I just received maximum wage in the mail today, and it is ball rocking as usual. I like how you've penned a song as long as timpani belle, which is pretty sweet. I'm glad serf made it onto this album as well, I always dug that song. chyeahhhhh
