Burning Heart Records sign BOYSETSFIRE
Burning Heart Records is proud to announce the signing of BOYSETSFIRE
The band that got huge attention from the very start, changed the face of modern hardcore and punkrock with their highly acclaimed records “The Day The Sun Went Out” (1997), “After The Eulogy”(2000) and “Tomorrow Come Today”(2003). Not only because of the intense songs that are a big part in thousands of peoples hearts, or the soon to come status as one of the best live acts around, but also for being outspoken with their political believes. A big part of Burning Heart Records was always about bands that speak out, bands that have a say, bands that see Punkrock and music in general as something more than the coolest tattoo or the coolest image. We at Burning Heart Records are proud to team up with one of the most creative bands around these days. These guys make a difference and we are sure that we can make even more of a difference together!

* “THE MISERY INDEX: NOTES FROM THE PLAGUE YEARS” will be released in Australia by Burning Heart through Shock in February 2006, coinciding with the U.S. & European release dates. *
Please read the band’s statement below:
It’s been a long time since the last BOYSETSFIRE album saw the light of day and a lot has happened since then. We had some changes coming our way. Some asked for, others unexpected. We are left with some scars to show after the last 2 years and yet, we were able to create a record, that means much, much more than just another release to all of us. A record that (while capturing the pure essence of the band) is different in a lot of ways…we felt there was no need to hide the scars. But like so often, these dark days brought out intensity in many ways. We overcame the negative aspects and focused on creating something to celebrate the new spirit. Change brought us closer together in the end. It allowed us to write this record.
On this note we proudly announce that we have teamed up with BURNING HEART RECORDS to release our upcoming album “THE MISERY INDEX: NOTES FROM THE PLAGUE YEARS”
We felt like they will treat it, like we think it should be treated. Not playing along with the mind-numbing mantras of this day and age, where pretention and false ego destroy the very essence of art and emotion. We felt like this deserves to be presented as it is. Pure. Real. This is who we are in 2006 and we can’t wait to share with you the many different layers of this band, that this record will hopefully bring forth.
So without going into cheesy marketing lingo or self applauding nonsense…this is it. The next chapter for 5 guys wanting change, wanting a difference.
We sincerly hope you can connect to our struggle and leave you with our humble offering in the form of these songs. They mean the world to us.
Love, Robert.Matt.Nathan.Chad.Josh / BOYSETSFIRE http://www.boysetsfire.org/
