Kotara – ‘Burden’

Singles
Written By The Note
 

The second single this year from four-piece Kotara is ‘Burden’, a high-octane drop of pure rock noise. Clocking in at just under three minutes, this energy-laced song ticks all the best bits of the garage rock genre: raw, real and really bloody good. We hope the boys don’t polish their sound too soon, we dig this upbeat grunge music and smart introspective lyrics. More please!
