Accolades for Trying to Burn the Sun
By the opener "Planet Of Doom" Sideburn promptly pay their tribute to Black Sabbath and their most illustrious descendants: Cathedral. the following "Doin' Fine" instead, is dressed like an Unida song, and likewise John Garcia, the singer/bassist Jani Kataja is influenced by Cult's Ian Astbury. Henceforth, the record takes off in the wake of a constant and varied inspiration led by Morgan Zocek's space guitar and the splendid performances out of drummer Tor Penten.
Sideburn has a very classic sound, but it's saturated in outstanding goodness such as blazing metal leads and deep down-tuned fuzzed over sludge... Their songs are high energy rockers that remind me of bands like Fu-Manchu and Kyuss...Dozer- great rocking driving music that chugs right along. Sideburn is one of those bands that you either get or don't. If you like Unida/Dozer or even Monster Magnet...bands with strong soulful vocals and fuzz, get this.
