The Burning Hell releases "Bird Queen Of Garbage Island" video and single

Somewhere far across the ocean, a mutant cyclops bird queen rules over a floating mass of trash, the last remnants of a lost civilization. Is this a vision of the future? A new Netflix series? No, it’s “Bird Queen of Garbage Island,” the new single from The Burning Hell. The band, based in PEI and Newfoundland, spent a large part of the pandemic working on a new record, to be released in the summer of 2022. This first single showcases songwriter Mathias Kom’s typically irreverent, surrealist lyricism (and more Waterworld references than a Kevin Costner fan convention), over a musical landscape provided by bandmates Ariel Sharratt, Jake Nicoll, and Darren Browne, which combines a Tom Tom Club-style groove with an ASMR breakdown featuring office supplies and - fittingly - plenty of actual garbage. The accompanying video was created by the award-winning New Brunswick multi-media artist Graeme Patterson, and the single itself is being released on a limited edition 7” record with an accompanying comic book written for the project by the French graphic novelist and illustrator Emmanuel Moynot.
