"A compelling blend of ominous Goth atmospheres, dark, but dynamic dancefloor anthems, New Wave ’80s tunefulness, and electronics-embedded tech tracks, all draped with the silky, reflective, and longing vocals of George Grant" ~ Big Takeover Magazine
"Leaning towards Ultravox and Colourbox on the new wave spectrum, they sometimes also produce vibes channelled from Phantasmagoria-era The Damned and Butterfly on a Wheel-era The Mission. The closest assessment would be The Veldt and modern day post-punk quartet ACTORS, only with the unique vocal timbre of A.R.Kane's Alex Ayuli" ~ Amplify Music Mag
"The elements of post-punk such as the jangly guitars and the keyboards and yet there seems to so much more going on... Space might be the final frontier but Black Rose Burning are already stellar" ~ Onyx Music Reviews
"A compelling album that smoulders from the ashes of goth-rock, whilst emerging from the dry-ice ambience of 80s nostalgia. Like a noir-new romantic, Black Rose

released in 2020.
. This is their
second full-length album, following the band's debut album
"This is the third video for the Black Rose Burning Sci-Fi space series 'Under Twin
Suns', which documents the journey of "The Traveler" from earth to his homeworld.
The song encouraged the spaghetti western feel of this video, which is a space age
homage to films like 'High Plains Drifter' and 'The Good The Bad And The Ugly'. I'm
a big fan of that genre of films as well, and I've always wanted to pay tribute with a
video of my own," says
Running at about 50 minutes, this collection of 12 galactic offerings was inspired by
love lost, love won and outer space. This sophomore album takes the band's sound
to a completely new level in terms of songwriting and composition.

"Over the past four years or so, quite a few relationships that I valued were
destroyed in an instant - over politics or just basic unacceptable differences. Then
came Covid and I lost a few more for reasons beyond their control. There was a lot
of anger in my first record. This one is more melancholic than angry. I write about
outer space a lot. On both records. I find it inspirational. It’s vastness. It’s the place
I’d most like to go. Maybe the place I’d most like to escape to might be a better
definition."
'The Wheel' was recorded in George’s own studio,
, which
has over the years hosted such artists as Emelio Zeff China (Peter Murphy), Knox
Chandler (Siouxsie And The Banshees), Chibi (The Birthday Party Massacre), Nellie
McKay, Julia Marcel, Paul Bakija (Reagan Youth), Ego Likeness and Voltaire (with
whom Grant also played bass for 10 years).
Frank Morin (World Inferno Friendship Society) Luis Infantas (Monster Zero).

With a healthy set of post-punk gothic rock earworms, it should come as no surprise
that this album would involve
Studio in Vancouver.
Black Rose Burning was formed in 2018 by instrumentalist, producer and
engineer
George Grant
, whose soulful vocal delivery, instantly recognizable voice,
unique grooves and solid instrumentation are standout features of this music.
Spanning the realms of multiple genres, Grant's influences are also multi-
generational while maintaining an overall succinct flow and feel. Roughly 40 years of
songwriting across many styles has helped George embellish on clever hooks, drive
and the gothic-pop sensibilities of The Cult's early years.
"This release was a labor of love after the success of my first record. I was working
through and adjusting to the post covid landscape and took solace in having the time
to make another proper record," says
Grant has also assembled for live performances, including guitarist
and drummer
