Burn the Gates

Bio

Burn the Gates is a hardcore metal band hailing from Kansas City. Comprised of locally-rooted veterans of the music scene, this band brings a wide variety of influences and backgrounds to the stage in order to create their own flavor of #KCmetal.

Founded in late 2015, Jeff (guitar), Brandon (drums), and W2 (bass) connected and cultivated the initial energy of today’s Burn the Gates. Writing began and the chemistry sparked immediately giving them a direction that would set the band apart. Along with Carl (guitar) and Jonathan (vocals), layers of complexity and absolute brutality in the music would solidified both their unique sound and their place within the Kansas City metal community.

Jonathan Haslar, from Into Existence, joined the band at the beginning of 2022 and immediately jumped right in giving the band a renewed energy and excitement. We've spent the first part of the year hard at work in the studio finalizing our next chapter. Impetum Consilium released July 15th, 2022. Already we are making plans to head back into the studio to begin work on more new music, as we continue to push forward with focus!
