Biography

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 abundant in Burst’s accessible musical language.

Burst thrive on an undying, unyielding, and uncompromising love of music. Their purpose is to channel this fixation into the make-up of the band, by any needful paths, wherever they might lead. Unobservant of fads and trends, Burst write music for their own satisfaction, and so always delve deeply into their collective pool of influences, indulging in their respective nuanced idiosyncrasies in order to retrieve something honest and passionately heartfelt—intensely sincere, often with a twinkle 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.

Patrik Hultin brings to the table all of the violence and power associated with his punk and thrash metal inclinations, while guitarists Robert Reinholdz and Jonas Rydberg, approaching from a more jazzy, melodic, and sometimes psychedelic direction lend the music a both unnerving and beautiful quality.
