"i'm in your mind, your mind"
The Fix is my first introduction to San Francisco experimental punk grunge band Burd and what an introduction it is as they start with very grungy (very grungy) progs and:
Would you love me if I got you high?
All I want to do is keep you satisfied
and later
Can I get you to fix
can I get you to fix my love
Now, there are some sort of classic tones here from 90's grunge to sort of 60's psyche rock tones too and jagged things going on, with a surprising (really surprising) bridge break and an appropriate amount of (to me) self empowerment and self loathing. In the end, this debut by this band or duo feels to me like some kind of coalescing blendo of Nirvana, Speedy Ortiz and Fiona Apple (yes, really).
I got my eyes on you Burd.

Burd is an eruption of twisted fuzz guitar riffs, wacky tempo shifts and mind trips. All while maintaining digestible pop sensibilities. A psychedelic mixture of punk, pop, and grunge, Burd has a versatile sound that delivers a heavy blow.
