Though the members wrote songs and even attempted to record a demo that year, it wouldn't be until the following year, after Cursed ended abruptly while on tour in Europe, that the band would become a full-time project. The band released a demo that year before finally releasing its full-length debut, Songs for Burning Lovers, in 2010. The band finished out the year touring Europe before losing bassist O'Connor in early 2011, replacing him with Alex Goodall. Later that year, Burning Love headed to Salem, Massachusetts to work with producer (and Converge member) Kurt Ballou on their second album. Their sophomore effort, Rotten Thing to Say, eventually arrived in 2012 on metal label Southern Lord. ~ Gregory Heaney
