Burning the Day

Burning the Day - Toronto, Canada - January 2004 - Present
Burning The Day was formed in 2004 by a group of friends that wanted to start a metal band. In 2010 some members left, some stayed, and some new ones joined. BTD has had some great accomplishments over the years, but also have gone through some hardship. 2012 is a new start for BTD and we are stronger than ever due to the new line up which includes Cesar Silva- vox, Matt Metcalfe- guitars, Maxim Shelkov- guitars, Steve Mitchell- drums, and Dimitri Skribans on bass.
