Lazarus Bird is the fifth and final full-length album by Swedish progressive metal band Burst, released on September 16, 2008 by Relapse Records. It features lengthier songs than the albums before it, averaging 7.5 minutes per song. It also exhibits a more experimental nature than any of Burst's previous records.

Recording was completed in Studio Bohussound in Kungalv, Sweden, in May 2008.[3] The album's core concept was described by the band as "homogenic" and "thematic".[3]
