Far from your ordinary stoner-rock act, Montreal’s Barnburner combines the raw vigour of 70’s rock ‘n’ roll with the warm melodies of the NWOBHM and a sludgy/groovy twist, making their sound distinctively their own.

Even the most seasoned rock stars need a second opinion. For longtime Cursive frontman Tim Kasher, debuting new songs to some folks in Montana does the trick perfectly. Kasher moved from California to Whitefish, Mont. (population 8,000) earlier this fall looking for "the polar opposite of the West Coast," he tells Spinner.
