Chicago-based contortionists REZN have spent the best part of their career carving out a respectable name for themselves in the underground. Their psychedelic mix of prog, shoegaze and doom has seen them grow a reputation as one of the best prospects around. After distinctively honing their craft under a strictly DIY banner, the quartet joined forces with Sargent House to put out what would end up being a de facto double album. This fifth record was created at the same time as their previous effort, Solace. The band decided against a double album and decided to split the release into two entities.

Where Solace was a much more uplifting offering with its far-reaching riffs and euphoric, almost dreamy undertones, Burden couldn’t be more different. It’s intended to make you feel claustrophobic with its pulsating riffs and recurring sense of misery.
