BURDEN OF GRIEF (Thrash/Death Metal – Germany) – Their new album “Destination Dystopia” is out on NOW via Massacre Records #BurdenOfGrief

German death/thrash metal masters, BURDEN OF GRIEF, have announced the release of their eighth studio album, titled “Destination Dystopia”. Available as CD, Ltd. Vinyl LP and Digital formats on November 24, 2023 through Massacre Records, the album pre-sale is now available at: https://lnk.to/destinationdystopia

It’s their first offering in more than five long years. Five years, in which so much has happened in the world that BURDEN OF GRIEF were forced to refer to it lyrically and musically. Reinforced by the two new members Dominik Hellmuth (guitars) and Manuel Lüke (drums), they now present the strongest, heaviest and most varied album in the almost 30-year band history.

“This is the very first song we wrote for the new album and it’s also the first song written by our new guitarist Dome.“ The band comments. “The last time that a BURDEN OF GRIEF song wasn’t written by our band founder Philipp or by our longtime guitarist Joe, who unfortunately left the band in 2021 after 15 years, was in 2003. Therefore “Fevered Dreams” has actually a special status for us. Nevertheless, it fits in perfectly with our previous works.“

On “Destination Dystopia”, BURDEN OF GRIEF accomplished to focus on their years of experience, to combine their strengths and to put them into 10 riff monsters that are bursting with energy, great melodies and pure heaviness. First and foremost, you’ll get the thrash and melodic death treatment, but you’ll also find a plethora of elements that go way beyond what these musical drawers are all about. Expect killer grooves, classic twin-guitar solos as well as the return of the old-school Hammond organ. Kristian “Kohle” Kohlmannslehner and his assistant Daniel Claar took care of the drum recordings, mixing and mastering of the album at the Kohlekeller Studios (Hämatom, Powerwolf, Aborted, etc.), and they made sure that “Destination Dystopia” is the tightest and heaviest album BURDEN OF GRIEF has ever released!
