Burning Harbor continue their steady run with “Russian Roulette,” a new single released through Violent Weather Records. Another strong entry from the Canadian punk scene, the track lands with urgency and grit, keeping things straightforward without sounding rushed or careless.
The song moves fast and tight, driven by sharp guitar lines and a rhythm section that stays locked from start to finish. There is a sense of tension running through it, fitting the title, but it never turns chaotic. Everything feels controlled, built to push forward rather than spiral out.
Vocally, the delivery is direct and confident. It cuts through the mix without overpowering it, giving the song its backbone while letting the instruments do their job. There is no theatrics here, just clear intent and momentum.
“Russian Roulette” sits firmly in classic punk rock territory. It is not trying to blend styles or stretch the formula. Instead, Burning Harbor focus on energy, pacing, and a hook that lands naturally. The production keeps things clean enough to hit hard while leaving the edges intact.
Canada has been quietly producing a steady wave of solid punk bands, and Burning Harbor fit right into that lineage. This single feels like a continuation rather than a departure, reinforcing their sound and sharpening it at the same time.
