The Singles Bar: Zak Smith – Fix Me

There’s a brokenness in the world that’s best summed up with Zak Smith‘s new song “Fix Me.” Smith coats you in a dark strawberry rasp that yanks your heartstrings. “Turn your face to the wall,” he sings. “You won’t fix me, baby.” He takes the emotional temperature of not only his own self-destructive behavior but also that of the world that merely feeds our inner disgust. Smith wraps dirty indie/rock guitar around thorny, bleeding Americana lyrics that gut the listener.
