With a more open-minded musical identity, Portugal’s Burning Sunset melds classical instruments and melodic death metal to produce a good ole’ heavy metal hybrid in the grand tradition of bands playing nontraditional metal with nontraditional instruments. Releasing their first EP early this year, Burning Sunset’s “Bruma” contains songs that bring epic choruses, vicious growls, folksy influences, and neck breaking thrash all together in a hyper energized aural cocktail. Answering our questions about everything and anything Portuguese, vocalist/violinist Daniel talks about his band, their gigs, and real life burning sunsets.
