Artist description we're a breed of misfits from all over New Jeresy (Mainly Blackwood). It all started out a good joke. But later on we really found ourselves getting into the music we were making. And so The Burning Roaches were born. Our music is for fun, but does take a few turns and jabs ar being serious.
