Listen, if you find yourself enjoying this particular moment, count yourself lucky. You’re most likely among the only ones to feel any bit of happiness. And, sadly, this isn’t just because this world is full of wars and economic inequality.
The people who receive the greatest opportunities in this world of ours are, usually, desperate to keep them. They are so desperate, in fact, that they lie to themselves. They start believing pleasures are something to avoid.
But, as Funderbird’s music and attitude prove, finding time to be creative and learning about the way in which life works is a luxury that all of us can afford, but few dare to ask for.
“Buddhist Mary” sounds precisely like a loud punk band playing in a small room. It also sounds like musicians determined not to waste their time or your own. This is music imbued with experience and moved by appreciation. If punk-rock can make the world better, it can start by making your day a little better. This song does that!

Funderbird from Milford Charter Township Michigan, has gritty roots and wild branches on full display with their album, Let It Kill You. Pairing the ragged drive of Jawbreaker with the coiled weight of Jets to Brazil, the trio is equal parts restless and reflective, grounding the sound in lyrics that seize your attention. Funderbird accelerates between building pressure and righteous release, anchored in post-hardcore rhythms and kinetic punk vocals right up front in the mix. As a whole, the record speaks to a long lineage of earnest alt-rock with an edge, from Descendents to Toadies to The Menzingers, that never leaves your rotation as the years go by.
