Finland’s BURWEED Announce Debut Album Hide; “Lie” Video Streaming
February 3, 2015, 9 years ago
Burweed is readying their debut album Hide after nearly two years in the making.
After two EP-length releases, the process of making the first Burweed full-length did not turn out to be as easy. Writing the album was a long and difficult task. Confidence in the material and the band were completely buried at the end of the recording sessions.
The album was finished in early 2014, however, it lay untouched for over six months. The distance gained during this period showed the album in a new light. The difficulties faced, the frustration, and the dedication to the album are heard in an uncompromising, passionate, and an overwhelmingly cathartic whole. Hide has risen from the ashes.
Burweed was formed in 2009 in the midst of a creative outburst. The trio found their own voice on the praised Eyes Down South EP in 2012. Burweed combines the groove of Deftones with the gritty riffs of Mastodon.
Burweed's debut full-length Hide comes out February 20thon Inverse Records. Hide was recorded in 2013 at Korkeakoski Studios (Insomnium, Bob Malmström). The record was mixed by Antti Loponen, the mastermind behind Consciousness Removal Project, and mastered at Audiosiege by Brad Boatright (responsible of mastering Converge, Sleep. Sunn O))) among others).
