HORSEBURNER continues to step up the pace in 2019, and sets off on their U.S. Spring Tour in the Northeast on Friday, April 12th, with Stonecutters and Ghastly Sound on select dates.
To celebrate their recent signing with RIPPLE MUSIC for the release of their sophomore full-length, 'THE THIEF', later this year, the band introduced a new song "Hand of Gold, Man of Stone" off the upcoming album. The band shared their reaction to the new venture:
"We are thrilled to finally be putting out new music after almost three years and several member changes, and we can't wait for people to hear "Hand of Gold, Man of Stone." It was the first song we finished for this new album, and we think it really sets the tone for what's to come this summer when the full album is released. It's loud, it's aggressive, it's a little weird! It's also the shortest song. Brevity has never been our strong suit, but there is a much larger story waiting to be told, and this song is just one chapter. We're even more excited to be teaming up with Ripple Music for the new record. We love so many bands on their roster, it's such a well curated label. We're honored to be joining the Ripple Family, and honestly, that's what it feels like, a family. "
Some excitement also comes from Todd Severin, of Ripple Music:
"It's not that often that a band comes by and just blows my mind, but Horseburner is one of them. They're taking the raw soul of stoner and taking it in fresh, exciting new directions. The sky is the limit for where these guys will soar."

The band shares some words about the upcoming tour:
"We're definitely ready to be back on the road, as well. We haven't been out there as much as we like to this past year, and we're ready to throw off the rust and see some new faces. We're hitting a few places for the first time ever, and returning to some old favorites, so this will be a good time.
On top of all that, we've got one of our best pals, Nick Burks from Louisville's Stonecutters, filling in on guitar for the April tour and some of the May dates, it's going to be killer. Then with Zach's exit from the band, and him doing a handful of farewell shows before he leaves for good! having Zach's last show with us in Columbus, Ohio in May - ten years from our first ever show, which was also in Columbus - bittersweet is definitely one way to put it."
HORSEBURNER premiered new song "Hand Of Gold, Man Of Stone" from their upcoming album 'The Thief' at The Obelisk. Check out the track premiere here:

"Horseburner bring precise execution and weighted tones to bear with motion and largesse in like measure. Through clear production and intent, they would seem to be poised to bring their stamp to the pastiche of modern heavy, and if the purpose of an advance single is to pique interest, "Hand of Gold, Man of Stone" is mission accomplished." ~ The Obelisk
Together since 2008, borne from the wild Appalachian green of West Virginia, HORSEBURNER has never cowered from hard toil. From their first live show performed, a first EP 'Dirt City' self-released in 2009, an initial tour in 2011, to a second EP 7" 'Strange Giant' in 2013, and right up to a debut full-length 'Dead Seeds, Barren Soil' in 2016, it's all been DIY and self-released.
They've played hundreds of shows over the past decade, alongside such acts as Torche, Weedeater, Skeletonwitch, Goatwhore, Obituary, Corrosion of Conformity, The Obsessed, Karma to Burn, Prong, ASG, and Bell Witch. In 2017, the band altered their DIY stride with a reissue of their full-length through Hellmistress Records and reignited their flame with writing and recording new music during 2018.
