Burning Creation is a band founded in early 2022 in Żywiec (PL) by the Klimonda brothers after the suspension of the Haures band. The band's lyrics touch on the subject of Vikings. Their music can be classified as melodic death metal, with strong vibe of Amon Amarth. In 2023, the band presented its debut release, the EP "Never Dead-Nation", and after a year of waiting, it will show its debut album entitled "Sea Of Dead Bodies".
The new album is an aggressive, raw, death metal sound, interwoven with melodic accents straight from the frosty North. However, it is not only the sound and graphic design that evoke Scandinavia here. The main role here is played by the lyrics, referring to, among others, to mythological events, such as the winter of Fimbul ("Fimbulvinter"), the death of Baldur ("Tears Of Mourners") or the last battle of the warriors from Valhalla ("The Einherjers' Return"), about mythological, Scandinavian folklore ("Eaten By Hulder"), historical events, such as the siege of Paris ("Time Of Broken Shields"), as well as the original concept of Vikings returning from beyond the grave to take final revenge for the sins of this world. In almost every case, they are marked by cruelty, stained with the blood of the enemies of the warriors from the north, and also filled with the darkest of human emotions, as well as striking ugliness, imperfection. However, there is no shortage of glory for the fallen comrades, fighting for one's own, rising from one's knees and remembering one's values and who one really is. Most likely, this direction will be continued on the band's next releases. Perhaps the scales will tip towards uncompromising death metal rather than one full of melody - towards even more bloodshed, but only the future will tell.
Klimonda brothers comments upcoming record: "Sea Of Dead Bodies consist of 9 brand new songs that take us to the world of Vikings and Norse Gods. This time, the corpses of warriors from the North have sailed on boats from across the ocean to continue the conquest begun on the "Never Dead-Nation" EP. In addition, the album will feature a bonus track in the form of a cover of Amon Amarth's "Burning Creation", a song that gave rise not only to the band's name, but also to the band's musical style and fascination with the North."
Music for upcoming release was recorded, mixed and mastered by Marek Stefaniak. Cover artwork was done by Damian Bydliński. Debut album titled "Sea of Dead Bodies" will be released on November 29, 2024 on digital format and CD by Polish label Via Nocturna (CD pre-order).
