After about the 500th same old boring, monotonous metalcore band was formed, with the same predictable riffs, and copied sound they took from other bands before them, the genre started to get old. Although the sound of metal is broad and beautiful in many ways, many groups just don't seem to put emotion or work into making their sound different. With this in mind, Burn This Water, a Christian Experimental Metal band with two lifelong friends as members, was formed in 2008. Gabe and Josiah have played music together for over 8 years, and have been friends their whole lives. The music is recorded on only a keyboard and computer microphone, due to cost and available equipment. They believe their sound is unique, and is in no way a direct copy of any band they know of. They believe Jesus Christ created them, and music, to compliment each other. They play with a passion and emotion that cannot easily be matched, and their debut album, The Lifeless Lifegiver, is a bold and challenging statement lyrically and musically. It is set to be released in mid to late 2010, with hopefully shows following. Don't judge our music at first listen. Realize our limitations of equipment, and give us a chance. Our songs are completely free. As all music should be and hopefully someday will be. Enjoy! :)

Also, if you're between the ages of 12 and 18 and you live near Cedar Rapids, Iowa, you play bass or guitar, and you're looking for a band, we would love for Burn This Water to get more members. You must be willing to practice and be committed(and skill would be nice, too)and be able to play progressive/experimental/metal style on your instrument. If you meet those requirements, email/message us.
