This Burning Age

Debut Album "A Muzzle For The Masses", Autumn 2008

About Me


"This Burning Age" is front man, songwriter and guitarist Friday joined by a band of friends and fellow musicians.
Although influenced by many genres "This Burning Age" defies succinct categorisation. The closest might be Brit-alt-rock-industrial-punk-D'n'B-with an electronica twist.
The truth is they don’t sound like anything you’ve heard before.
After working with producer James Brede, Friday has just finished recording the debut album, “A Muzzle For The Masses” which is also being released on his forthcoming record label this Autumn in both CD and digital download formats (including a very limited edition CD version).
They are now taking bookings both in their hometown, the second city of Birmingham, and around the UK so expect to hear from them, wherever you are, soon.
Enjoy the noise.
Perseverantia.
