We play rock. We do it our own way. We are from Sweden. Should you need more info than this, here's a text we found on the internet:
"Rock without age, metal without spikes, progression without beards, melodic without complacency; tastefully experimental, abrasive, atmospheric, harmonious, offering blunt force, warm soundscapes and somber moods.
Descriptions and metaphors are in abundance for Bursts surprisingly accessible musical language.
Yet somehow, never right on the money.
Burst thrive on an undying, unyielding, and uncompromising love of music. Their purpose is to channel this fixation into the format that make up the band, by whatever path they need to take, and wherever this may lead them. Truly unaware of fads and trends, Burst write music for their own satisfaction, and thus always dig deep into their collective pool of influences, indulging in their peculiar nuances in order to retrieve something truly honest and passionately heartfelt. Always deeply sincere, yet often with a mischievous wink in the eye.
Burst first embarked on this adventurous journey back in the mid-nineties, tentatively searching the vast playground of extreme punk, heavy metal, and hardcore, feelers a-quiver and tentacles extended, before finding their feet both as far as music and personnel goes by 1998, when Burst crystallized into its current form. At last the varying influences that fuelled the five members seemed to gel, and suddenly there was magic flowing from the instruments."
Lazarus Bird-related narcissism:
"the album's density is matched only by its bold ambition" 8/10 – METAL HAMMER
"stunning fifth album from ambitions and epically-minded Swedes." 4/5 – KERRANG!
Scott Tips, ordförande i National Health Federation, kommer till Sverige!
Mr Tips kommer att informera om det allra senaste när det gäller FN:s mål att införa en global standard för livs- och läkemedel. Detta arbete sker i något som kallas för Codex Alimentarius-kommissionen. För mer information om kommissionen ---> http://www.backtobeing.se/alternativ.aspx
National Health Federation grundades 1955 och är en konsumentorganisation som verkar för att människor ska ha rätt till att konsumera hälsosam mat och kosttillskott och att kunna använda alternativa behandlingsmetoder utan restriktioner från regeringen. Organisationen har medlemmar från hela världen och den har en styrelse och en rådgivningspanel med medlemmar från sex olika länder. NHF är den enda konsumentorganisationen i världen som har rätt att närvara vid Codexkommissionens möten. http://www.thenhf.org/
Scott Tips är en amerikansk jurist som har specialiserat sig på frågor gällande bl.a. livs- och läkemedel, ideella organisationer och varumärken.

Årets Codexmöte ägde rum i Düsseldorf i Tyskland mellan den 2 och 6 november. Scott Tips kommer alltså att ha med sig färsk information om vad som är aktuellt i kommissionens arbete med att inskränka våra rättigheter till ett hälsosamt liv.
Föredragen hålls på engelska och innehåller även en Power Point-presentation. Det

Hey, I was at the Chicago show and loved you guys. I saw those shirts hanging on the wall and I wanted one, but I didn't have enough money. Is there any way I could purchase, if you still have some in stock, one off of you?

Hello friends! THREAD ATLAS will be @ Tantra in San Marcos on October 30th. This is our 1st show with the new line-up and we're excited as hell! Thanks from all of us.
I have seen 300 plus shows in my short yers! You guys were one of the best! And I got to see it with 30 people at blondies in DETROIT< MI!!!!! Have safe travels fellas!
Is there ANY way that I can learn your songs? There's so many layers and I'm trying to figure stuff out. Can I get at least a starting point? What tuning(s) do you guys use? I'm so bummed you guys are going away for the time being. I'm a new fan from the U.S. and I can't believe I missed out on you guys. Your music is so deep and I wish there was more, but at least I'll be listening to Origo and Lazarus Bird for a long time. There's so much packed into every song. I'm so interested in your song arrangements, so I'm trying to study your music(for a lack of better words). Thanks for the sick tunes and I'll be sitting around waiting for you guys to return!
