antoniskalamoutsos Amazingly fresh and powerful, Bird Problems seem able to combine progressive, math and jazz elements with ideal coherence. Desperate for a full length album! Highly recommended.

Donald Wilson Love this album! I wish there were more songs, lol, but I digress. I identify best with Cold Turkey,knowing all to well the work one puts in to creating something, only to slowly lose motivation to continue the longer you go without progress. I aim to be an Author, and am facing the same problem. I find it inspiring to know someone put this situation into music, and done so beautifully. It WILL all be fine, eventually. That's why we have to keep going, no matter what. Favorite track: Cold Turkey.

We float through the motions Nibbling ambrosia Always the same Our antique devotions Gave us agnosia Now nothing remains Beyond the nest Prune the branches Break to build Divest from your nest It pays to be uncomfortable It's the only way to grow Or be a node in the owlgorithm Fluttering about Without a shred Of agency Take a chance and It might be worth it If you trust the process You don't deserve it Throw me a curve ball Fuck up my day Turns out we had it all backwards Our world's so small Let's live a little Turns out we had it all backwards I'm not lost I'll no longer Cut the crust Off my experience I'm not lost I'll no longer Cut the crust Off my experiences There's a world in which we all believe the opposite Of the things that we hold true I'll no longer cut the crust off my experience

Cold Turkey 05:06
Try to imagine a time you were inspired Some days I'm driven, crafting empires Now bricks lie unlaid in perfect piles Time, my nemesis Why must you ruin all of this? I was driven, now I’m mad All works lose their shine over time Burned out again Sunrise in bed Hard to believe you believed in What you believed in But the dream is fading slow Know that you know you believed in this Know that you know you believed Oh, to imagine a time so uninspired Some days I'm manic, soldering wires Now bricks lie unlaid in vile piles Now your time is running out Better get on your horse and ride Time, my nemesis Why must you ruin all of this? I was driven out of hand All works lose their shine over time Let’s burnout again I’ve been up, I’ll tell you Sunrise in bed Know that you know you believed in this Know that you know you believed Burnout with me Tell me it will all be fine I’ll bounce back and change my mind Surely This is What you Were meant to Do with Your life Never second guess Passion Leave it all on the line I know you believed in your climb Tell me it will all be fine

Quailia 05:10
Waves of light Feed us information Make the most of what we’ve got All the world’s A puppet show Eyes close like curtains Axons tug like strings All the world's Interpreted From within our heads Reality Was already Virtual No telling what you perceive No telling what you believe No preventing what you perceive No lamenting what you believe Know that we know There’s a long way to go Until we learn what it means to be Open your eyes to the way that we see This piecemeal reality Consisting of best guesses, pride, and faith It’s all an illusion A trick of the mind

Jerk Chicken 05:54
Don't roast me, I’m already baked Let’s keep things spicy and nicely arranged How tasteless, I’m shameless Lay this to rest I'm one of the best Come on and tell me a joke Make it deadpan and dry as a bone Darker than a murder Of crows in vantablack Don’t stretch, and turn into stone Keep this up you’ll wind up alone Hahaha What a joke Don't roast me, I’m already baked Let’s keep things spicy and nicely arranged How tasteless, I’m shameless Lay this to rest I'm one of the best Come on and tell me a joke Make it deadpan and dry as a bone Darker than a murder Of crows in vantablack The flaccid sword of Damocles Could never ever frighten me Feed these vultures Their chagrin Give an inch and They’ll eat your skin Every balk And passing screech Has let you spread your wings Jerk Chicken Take one last flight As thunder crashes Rise from the ashes

about

Bird Problems has been crafting their sonic nest since 2013, developing a unique but diverse sound that keeps listeners guessing. Their 2018 single The Harpist marked a departure from the metalcore-inspired debut album Tar, leaning more heavily into the band's jazz influences. With Beyond the Nest, Bird Problems is ready to spread their wings and discover what lies beyond these early releases. From the frigid lament of Cold Turkey to the crushing catharsis of Jerk Chicken, Beyond the Nest is both the most extreme and refined Bird Problems release to date.
