Indie-pop ascending artist Burry shares their most unapologetic body of work to date in the form of the "I'm tired" EP. This powerful and personal project visually represents the burden of burnout, depression, and the everyday struggle for recognition.
Covering seven songs in just 21:35, it's as compact as it is crushingly direct, extending an invitation to join you in a highly personal space where weakness is turned into a source of strength. Each song on "I'm tired" is a whispered confession, a beautiful tryst of haunting melodies and lyrics that resonate with the inner wars of mental health, queerness, and self-discovery.
Songs such as "Our Home" and "i don't miss you" serve as emotional anchors, bearing the sting of memory and the fragile hope of moving forward. However, the project as a whole resists easy resolution, and it's about as much about recognizing the pain as it is about finding catharsis through the act of expressing it.
Famous for their bold narratives and avant-garde artistry, the Halifax-born, non-binary artist has been chiselling out a space for honesty in music. Burry, who achieved status with the hit "TV GLOW" and GLAAD-featured "Pillow Princess," comes in a stripped-down and relentless look and sound that owes nothing but itself, a diary of ache and clarity that has been lived.
Inspired by the emotional openness of artists like Renee Rapp, Billie Eilish, and Phoebe Bridgers, Burry's music offers a lifeline to anyone who has ever felt the silent fatigue that comes with just being. "I'm tired" is a pronouncement, a lament, and, ultimately, a handshake.
