About Me

Burn The Negative - Epic, new wave electronic punk POP BAND!! AND Hailing from the Northwest of England in the city of Carlisle. /////////////
Lead singer/producer Mark Baker (or Mark DVS) is also known for his co-production work with Lil* Devious, he fell into the vocalist role by chance as he used to perform draught vocals for session vocalists. This time around, his vocals stuck, sitting perfectly into the material they were written for /////////////
His Lil* D production partner Gary Little the 'technician' and patient one also features in the band, this time on Synth & programming duties. /////////////
Also in the band is Gareth Milburn, a bassist with masses of experience in the live field, having played in bands over 10 years and playing around the country. ////////////
Next up is Lee Smith, Who previously toured the UK live circuit with Second To Last (guitar, vocals) for 5 years and released an EP through Lockjaw records in 2005. Lee is a guitarist with a varied taste in music and easily added his sound to the productions Mark and Gary create for their forthcoming yet bizarrely only their DEBUT album, this is after all their 15th year as releasing artists on labels as diverse as Ministry Of Sound. Norman Cooks Southern Fried label, now US based Shaboom. Major labels Sony, BMG and smaller cooler labels, Stronghouse, Tracks Of Interest and Glow. ////////////
The incredibly diverse label Gung-Ho! are now taking on the BURN THE NEGATIVE boys. The album is already beginning to take on its OWN sound, epic keys, huge guitar licks and percussion to drive nails into floorboards. Next up the LIVE experience. The guys are looking at possible gig dates from the summer. WATCH THIS SPACE///////////
