“I think these guys are the best rock band out there cuz they’re not just a rock band….their music is more than just rock…it has a lot of depth and a lot of vibe to it…SOMETHING TO BURN is a band that’s very important to this label…their songs sound really true and really real…you get that feeling in your heart as well as that feeling in your ears that makes you wanna hear the song over & over.”

The music of SOMETHING TO BURN resurrects what we’ve been missing from our musical past, while forging boldly ahead into the future, and serves as the perfect soundtrack for the party that bridges the two.

Post from: The Rock Dose

The Rock Dose: Thanks for taking some time to answer a few questions… first could you introduce us to Something to Burn? What unique strength does each member bring to the band?

Something to Burn:

Greg – singer, he possesses the power of being unpredictable.

Shawn – Drummer, random melody lines of pure gold.

Jeff – Bass, knowledge of the industry.

Jimmy – Guitar, great songwriter & artist.

TRD: What is the inspiration behind the name “Something to Burn”?

STB: It’s a name about moving on into a different era of music and the way the industry is now. Time to get with the program or be left in the dust.

TRD: Transitions was released on September 15th… how happy are you with the final product?

STB: It’s out now kids, go get it! The final product is badass, the disc as a whole from the tunes to the artwork, it makes a freaking statement.

TRD: What’s it like to be working with the great Scott Weiland? What have you learned from him?

STB: Haha, well we learned to be patient, he is a great guy and we all just clicked, too many things to take away from someone that’s seen it all like he has.

TRD: In November, you have a show scheduled with Steel Panther… who are all the women going to be waiting for after the show? What other bands have you shared stages with?

STB: They will be waiting for all of us of course, have you seen what we look like, haha! We have shared the stage with Stone Temple Pilots, Shinedown, Meriwether, all kinds of great bands, we just played the Sunset Strip Music Festival where the great Ozzy played as well.

TRD: Are you planning on doing a large scale tour in the near future?

STB: That’s the plan, play some shows throughout the remainder of the year and then the plan is to hit the road with STP and whoever else will have us.

TRD: Do you have one story from the road or from shows that really sticks out in your mind? Do tell!

STB: An outdoor show in Oklahoma City with STP, it was 115 degrees plus humidity and people were still out there rocking out, drinking beer and could care less that they were all beet red. People in Oklahoma are freaking crazy we love it.

TRD: Obligatory “must ask” question: Who are some of the major influences behind your music?

STB: Any good rock band from the past 30 years to be quite honest from bands like Tool all the way to Kiss, as well as a lot of new bands out there like the Almost, Blindside & Papa Roach’s new stuff, we love everything.

TRD: Do you have anything you’d like to add?

STB: Grab the disc online at somethingtoburn.com or softdriverecords.com or iTunes, hit us up on all the MySpace’s and Facebooks and sh*t, we love to talk to new people and come see us live & rock the **** out!

For too many people in the 21st century, music has become little more than something to burn. But for the band Something to Burn, music remains everything it was ever meant to be, and more.

Something to Burn bridge the gap between rock and roll’s heady past and its uncertain future on their debut album Transitions, to be released this summer on Softdrive Records, the label founded by Stone Temple Pilots front man Scott Weiland.

Recently, the band sat down with Softdrive Records founder for an interview to talk about their new album, Transitions. You can view the interview HERE

Greg Wayne (lead singer) had the following to say about working with Scott:

“It’s been great working with Scott Weiland cuz he’s a fellow artist so he gets it, ya know? He gave us the means to make a record, but then allowed us the artistic freedom to make the record we really wanted to make. In the end, he loved what we did so it worked out smashingly for everyone. Plus he has swords and who doesn’t like swords? Haha!”

On Transitions, SOMETHING TO BURN have crafted an epic voyage as intuitive as it is responsive, ebbing and flowing with artistic vigilance and musical relevance. It truly offers “the whole album experience.”
