BURNING WARSHIP

SHIT KICKING ROCK N ROLL!

About Me


Brought together by a love of Classic Rock, Metal and Jagermeister, Burning Warship are flying the new school flag for the sounds of old. These five lads, all childhood friends, disillusioned with 'modern metal' and 'radio rock' bands, have taken the sounds of the past and injected a fresh, vibrant twist into the mix - creating an incendiary new sound that has the attitude and vibe of '70's and '80's hard rock with a youthful new energy.
With members of the band playing past gigs supporting Spit Like This, Tokyo Dragons and Viking Skull and future gigs booked with Saxon, Tygers of Pan Tang and Orange Goblin, Burning Warship have proven themselves as an energetic live band to be reckoned with, upstaging many 'older' and 'experienced' bands in the process with their catchy choruses, driving rhythms and face melting solos.
Current Burning Warship releases include the 'Hit the Deck EP', recorded between April 2007 and August 2007. BW also have a 'Looting Live in Leicester' DVD in the process of production; courtesy of a Battle of the Bands win in a town where they were virtual unknowns.
2008 looks bright for Burning Warship, with bigger gigs coming up, new recordings in the pipeline and an even bigger sound, BW are going to whip up a storm in the future.
Welcome to the Sleaze.
Welcome to the Burning Warship.
