NEW DEHLI, India (CNN) -- For years, victims of so-called "bride burnings" have been crowding a unit of a New Delhi hospital -- young women whose husbands and in-laws have set them on fire in disputes over dowries.
Burning is common because in-laws can then claim it was a cooking accident.

 Splendid Magazine reviews Burning Brides: Leave No Ashes
Burning Brides cast a wide net for influences and come up with a grab-bag of genre pieces, displaying varying degrees of mastery of technique.
As Burning Brides excel at penning pure sing-along numbers, it's not surprising that they stumble a bit when they try to explore darker corners, as on the methodically grungy "To Kill a Swan" and the pure metal rocker "King of the Demimonde".
Burning Brides bring little new to the table, but when they've so thoroughly mastered the craft, it's hard to argue with the results.

While lyrical themes are easily found in Burning Brides music, there is no one theme in the overall sound.

And much of the enjoyable music would be considered "unoriginal" or "not innovative." But I forget sometimes that it really does take a type of talent, or at least a certain knowledge, to make enjoyable music, even on a stylistic path which has been crossed by so many others.
Philadelphia's Burning Brides are no exception to this rule.
Yet, the Burning Brides' entire existence still seems to be based entirely on rocking a crowd's ass, even if the crowd is only one person and the venue is a set of headphones.

If this album makes 90 percent of the other bands playing rock music look like the corporate know-nothings and fashion-clown posers they are, it will be because Burning Brides have a better marketing department behind them than Linkin Park and The Strokes.
Their success will come thanks to the fact that bassist Melanie Campbell looks great in fishnets and Dimitri Coats, the vocalist and guitarist behind this MC5 meets Sabbath meets Pixies stew, has an afro and can afford to perform with his shirt half open.
So no, Burning Brides most definitely will not save rock - too much passion and not enough pretension.
