After a short hiatus from music Tomi Mykkänen and Henkka Vahvanen from Battlelore started jamming again together. Soon it was decided that they needed to form a band for the jams. Miika Kokkola (founding member and original bass player from Battlelore) was contacted and asked if he wants to jam with the guys. He did. They played and jammed a few times and then it was decided that second guitarist would not hurt. Miika said that he had already talked with Tommi Havo (another original Battlelore member) about the project and that he was very interested. So, enter Tommi and on the first rehearsal together the first real song was made. On the second rehearsal the second song was made and then it was realized that the band had born.

In January 2013 "Soaring High EP" was released as a limited CD-release. The EP showcases quite well the versatility and the musicianship of the band. It shows their sides from the pure stoner rock frenzy to the more doomier fields. The EP sold out in couple of weeks after the release. The feedback and the buzz has been awesome-lly great and the band is very humbled about it. The EP is digitally available at the Bandcamp-site.

The song "All Life Long" was released as a video and digi-single late summer 2013.

A split-7" with fellow band CHURCH OF VOID was released in May 2014. LOWBURN song on the split is called "Dope Is a Pope".

LOWBURN are at the moment recording songs for LP and possible EP (split-LP) releases.

Even though the collective gig amount in the band is almost 500, LOWBURN has played only a handfull of gigs so far. Currently we are discussing different possibilities to tour in Finland and also abroad.

Whilst making the final touches on the album material and realising that we will probably play more gigs next year Havoc decided to step out from the band. Gladly our inner circle is wide and able so we have a new guy in the band already. We welcome another Tommi to the fold!

LOWBURN are looking for possible quarters to work with booking, album release(s) and such. Be in touch!

This is dead serious though lots, lots of fun!

Cheers!
