BURNDY is pleased to unveil their newest single, “Static.” Now playing at Decibel Magazine, the track is featured on the trio’s eponymous debut, set for release independently on May 2nd.


BURNDY – a term used to describe something that is slightly burned around the edges – is an all-female Chicago-based outfit that fuses industrial, noise, and post-punk into their own indescribable genre. Comprised of Jessie Ambriz (Starless, Girl Activity) on bass, Sally Sachs on bassoon, and Megan Emish (BLOODYMINDED) on electric ukulele and vocals, together they drive their songs forward with ominous electronic beats, bursts of static, and pulsing rhythms.


Elaborates Emish on “Static,” “This song is about feeling like your brain is on edge and your teeth are going with it. You know it won’t end well but you can’t stop it or calm it down. It keeps building. More static. More noise. More outrage. It overcomes you. When (if?) you make it through - everything changes."


Adds Decibel, "Going back to the early '80s, Chicago has a long reputation for noisy industrial rock. The home of Touch & Go and Wax Trax! Records, the city has churned out decades of aggressive, edgy bands. New trio, BURNDY, follows that tradition in unconventional fashion, as illuminated on their new single. 'Static'... is a slow builder, that’s terse and nervous with big Joy Division energy and a side of Sonic Youth. BURNDY’s unique lineup... creates a dark, paranoid vibe on the song with minimal instrumentation."
