Locks In October Tour Dates, Including WA For The First Time!
Sydney musician Justin Finch released his debut EP,�Shadows Of The Dying�under the moniker of�Burden Man�earlier this year.
Today,�Burden Man�has released a brand new music video for the track�Flesh Prison�which follows on thematically from the EP’s first video and title track.
However, 'Flesh Prison' is one of the more personal songs on the E.P that is deeply set in the lowest of the lows with no perceivable way of escaping.
I've wrestled many times with the idea of just giving up and taking matters into my own hands. My only real chance of having some kind of control.
However, everything has consequences and the clip for Flesh Prison is my way of exploring what they would be if I went ahead and followed through.
Yes, I could take control of my destiny but my victory would be a hollow one: I'm still bound by the exact thing that haunted me in life.
Burden Man will be playing a number of shows around Sydney during October and will be heading to WA for the first time too!
Sunday, October 15:�Frankies Pizza, Sydney with, Summonus,�Lord Sword�&�Mental Cavity.
Burden Man is best described as dark folk. Heavy and crushing but not in a metallic sense. In an emotional one.
While Justin's roots lay in metal and blues, where undoubtedly inspiration is drawn, Burden Man is more aligned with singer/songwriters such as�Chelsea Wolfe,�Leonard Cohen�and�Nick Cave�with a much heavier edge.
Burden Man delivers intimate, heartfelt and brooding melodies that are coupled with melancholic and minimalist rhythm guitar work which has a tonality that both simultaneously nurtures and disturbs you.
These rhythmic stylings fit perfectly with the soulful, ambient and at times, chaotic lead work appearing to imitate varying mental states.
Get�Shadows Of The Dying�from�iTunes,�Spotify�& on CD at the shows!
