[edit] History
Burnt Cross were formed in Jan 2007.All our music is recorded in my bedroom using a Boss 8 track with in-built drum machine and is in the style of Anarcho Punk with lyrics relating to animal abuse,civil liberties and the usual suspects.Fueled by our disgust at the state of the world it is just one channel to vent our anger.We used to be in a punk band together years ago and our intention was to just borrow a gutiar,find a drummer and record 3 songs just for ourselves but when i found the 8 trk and a friend who i lived with was gonna chuck out his guitar we messed about for couple of months and put out a 6 trk demo on myspace and people seemed to like it so we have carried on from there.
[edit] Discography
Our first demo was called "Reality of Sacrifice" and released in March 2007.A 6 trk cd which was limited to 150 copies and all given out over the internet in 4 months.
Our second demo was released in Sept 2007 called "Carcass of Humanity".A 7 trk cd which so far 100 copies have been given free.This is now being released under the same name but with the first 3 trks from the first demo mixed in to create a 10 trk,30 min cd which is being put out by Pumpkin Records for £2.A tape version is also being released by Fight the System Records(Germany)for about £1.50.A scale download is also available from moshpit-tragedy.com.Our first 200 ltd 7" is also out in Jan 2008 on Tadpole Records,will only be available for 2 months cos they are going fast.All these can be found on our Burnt Cross myspace site.
