Buried in Your Black Heart is the first full-length album by Burden Brothers, after the release of multiple EPs.

MTV said the album was a mixture of "Tough, driving metal & head-bobbing arena rock."

The lead single "Beautiful Night" was a commercial success, with it charting at #24 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Charts, and being used for a variety of commercial purposes (the NHL team Dallas Stars used the song in their opening sequence because of the song's chorus and the line "It's a beautiful night/To watch the stars."

Due to the relative success of the album, the band began touring as opening acts for Velvet Revolver, Papa Roach, and Finger Eleven.

During this time, the band also recruited Casey Hess for remaining tour dates and future recordings.
