Burdensome
Oppressively heavy death metal — Hertfordshire, England
bur·den·some /ˈbəːd(ə)nsəm/ · adjective · oppressively heavy.
An independent four-piece from Hertfordshire, welding death and melodic metal to thrash and prog.
Since their first show in April 2022, Burdensome have played everything in reach — dingy clubs, established venues, record stores, open skateparks — clawing out a loyal following across Hertfordshire and London. Their debut EP Hell is Dark, led by the singles Damaged Deliverance and Grief Leech, lands gruesome and exhilarating: the Chuck Schuldiner school of metal with glimpses of Carcass, early Opeth, Gojira and Blood Red Throne.
