From the classic rock upbringing of the Ballard twins - whose musical tastes were shaped by the hand-me-down tastes of their seven older brothers and sisters - to Norman’s guitar god meets rhythm and blues fusion, to the Tool via Ray Charles vocal colors of Wayne, it’s all about what happens when their chemical backgrounds blend. "We were focussed on writing a complete record, doing our best to hit it out of the park with every song, not just aiming at one or two singles” says Wayne. “This album is a journey, it's dynamic, it swings from the super heavy 'Start Again' to the soft acoustic 'Home,' and touches on all areas in between. We just wrote what we felt and let the music dictate where we went in order to make the best, most dynamic album possible." Job well done. The music of Something To Burn resurrects what we've been missing from our musical past, forging boldly into the future and serving as the perfect soundtrack for the party that bridges the two. -Paul Gargano, 05/09" />
