THE BURNED OVER conjures their full-length debut into this earthly realm on June 27. The Last Great Awakening is a summoning ritual steeped in heavy metal, occult magic, and atmosphere.
Comprising Kim Dylla (Cruachan, Ekktoplasm, ex-GWAR) and EMMY-winning, GRAMMY-nominated guitarist, producer, and composer Mark Dannells (Yacht Rock Revue, Butch Walker, ex-Skid Row), the duo ushers in the era of “BAPHOMETAL” with their gripping debut. This dark sound, now brought into the light, has been meticulously crafted with alchemical precision over the past five years. Drawing from Victorian occultism and folk horror, their music embodies the balance between light and shadow, weaving stories of ethereal transcendence and corporeal decay. At the heart of their artistry lies Baphomet—the symbol of unity in opposition—a guide through the labyrinth of contrasts: heavy and melodic, male and female, spiritual and profane. Their music transcends mere sound; it serves as a ritual, a haunting hymn to the eternal dance of duality. Each note acts as a sigil, and each lyric becomes a spell, weaving tales of mortality and cosmic chaos. They are joined on the album by powerhouse drummer Beau Brandon (Withered), producer/engineer Raheem Amlani (a member of Arcadea with Brann Dailor), and producer/mixer Kevin “131” Gutierrez (Shinedown, Paul McCartney, Johnny Cash). Mastering was handled by multiplatinum engineer Chris Athens (Hollywood Undead, PVRIS, Coheed And Cambria). Together, they’ve crafted a sound as haunting as it is hypnotic—a dark hymn for the coming storm. The Burned Over’s The Last Great Awakening arrives June 27. |
