The World Will Burn

The World Will Burn is a dynamic collaboration between vocalist Dale Thompson, renowned for his work with the band Bride, and multi-instrumentalist Alan Zaring. Despite living on opposite sides of the globe—Dale in New Zealand and Alan in the United States—they have crafted a powerful blend of heavy, hook-filled rock music through remote collaboration. Their sound is known for combining fresh, emotional intensity with classic heavy rock influences, steering clear of generic heavy music trends.

Their debut album *Severity* saw major success after its 2016 release, topping Amazon's alternative metal charts and spawning several chart-topping singles. Since then, they’ve continued to evolve, releasing albums like *RuiNation* and most recently *Burn Baby, Burn!* Their music tends to focus on passionate lyrics and strong melodies, reflecting the deep creative synergy between Dale and Alan despite the physical distance.
