Press Release
of BLACKBURNER ALBUM RELEASE
‘PLANET EARTH ATTACK’
September 25
Ft. WILLIAM SHATNER
Multi-talented
industrial rock/metal/dubstep crossover masterminds BLACKBURNER are set
to release second album PLANET EARTH ATTACK on September 25 via
Cleopatra/Hypnotic Records.
Featuring guest appearances from legendary Star Trek actor WILLIAM SHATNER and members of the prog rock back YES,
PLANET EARTH ATTACK further illustrates the bold creativity Blackburner
has become known for. Crossing EDM genres of dupstep, glitch, and
house with progressive rock, industrial, and noise, the 17-track
collection is a journey from depths to heights and back with beats that
physically resonate. On “Apocalypse,” vocalist Jessica Jean adds an
ethereal edge to the dystopian anthem, while “In Love With The City”
infuses a more progressive house sound highlighted by singer Geri X.
The single “50 Grades of Space “ is the definitive example of
Blackburner’s ability to aurally transport the body and mind with sonic
manipulation of tempo and intensity.
Blackburner
is a bold new force in electronic music masterminded by
producer/musician Skyla Talon, who first cut his teeth in music with
modern metal band Killingbird in 2000, later joining Scum Of The Earth,
the side project of ROB ZOMBIE axeman Riggs in 2005. After touring the
US with acts such as HATEBREED and TYPE O NEGATIVE, Talon began
experimenting with electronic dance music production, inspired by the
revolutionary new sounds in Dubstep and Glitch music generated by the
likes of fellow metal-head-turned-DJ SKRILLEX. The result was the birth
of BLACKBURNER – who released debut album 'FEEL THE BURN' earlier this
year featuring electronic pioneer Edgar Froese of Tangerine Dream as
well as John Wesley of Porcupine Tree.
Influenced
by the member’s backgrounds as metal guitarists and vocalists,
BLACKBURNER combines the heavily twisted and seriously aggressive bass
beats of Dubstep and Glitch with the melodic hooks of Rock, Industrial
and Electronica to create a daring yet widely appealing new hybrid
sound.
PLANET EARTH ATTACK is released September 25 on Cleopatra/Hypnotic Records.
