BUUUUUUUUUUUUURN!!!

About Me

The Fall of 2006 brought not only falling leaves; five men gathered in the lower regions of the Netherlands to form Burn The Iris.Deriving inspiration from a vast variety of great bands such as Poison the Well, Meshuggah and Burst; while at the same time confronting mutual differences, the band initiated the creation of aggressive, catchy grooves of their own.With all band members having past experience on-stage, you won't be disappointed by their live shows. So beware, and seek shelter now, while you still can!After completing their first recordings in the Fall of 2007, Burn The Iris are ready to rumble in every place that needs to be rumbled!External links:Vetcase CustomsSmoking Fish Industries
