Today’s track of the day comes from Black Orchid Empire with their new single Burn! The track is the third to be taken from the rockers’ latest album Yugen (out now, Long Branch Records).

Vocalist/guitarist Paul Visser says; “One of my earliest negative memories is sitting in my high chair as a toddler watching a tiny 80s TV as the Challenger space shuttle blew up in mid air. I based these lyrics on that experience – partly my memories of it, partly my thoughts about it now. The music is based around a big riff and soaring chorus with some cool switchups towards the end. I love the melancholy breakdown and chanty buildup section in the middle, it’s powerful and poignant and beautiful as well as technical.”
