Burning Love

Burning Love was a Canadian hardcore punk band from Toronto formed in 2007 by vocalist Chris Colohan (also of the band Cursed and former members of the sludge band Our Father: David O'Connor (bass), Andrus Meret (guitar), and Easton 'The Business' Lannaman (drums). History Burning Love started as a side project to the members' bands. The band began recording their first EP in 2007, but it was abandoned due to their dissatisfaction with the recording (most of the songs would appear on their 2009 demo). It was not until the sudden breakup of Cursed in 2008 that the band began (in 2008/2009) writing and recording full-time. Burning Love (2008–2009) Burning Love recorded a 10-minute demo and released it on 8-track tape and free digital download. The demo was later pressed into a self-titled 7 inch in 2009 and released first on British label Thirty Days of Night Records (to coincide with a UK tour), and then domestically 24 April 2010 on Deranged Records. Songs for Burning Lovers (2010–2011) In February and March 2010, the band recorded their first full-length album in Toronto with producer-musician Ian Blurton. On 25 April 2010, the band released the 7-inch single "Don't Ever Change" b/w "Jack the Ripper" on Deranged Records. A European version with an alternate cover (limited to 500) was released in November 2010 to coincide with a full tour of Europe and the UK. A live split LP with friends and tour mates Coliseum was recorded 27 June 2010 at the Atlantic in Gainesville, Florida during the tour. The live album was released 12 July 2011 by Tee Pee Records and Sound Study Recordings. In January 2011 David O'Connor left the band and was replaced on bass by Alex Goodall (aka "Hawk").
