The Fixt instrumentation includes one electric guitar, an electric bass, and a drum kit, along with vocals. In the early days of Fixt rock, musical virtuosity was often looked on with suspicion. The Fixt is rock and roll by people who don't have very much skills as musicians but still feel they need to express themselves through music.Fixt vocals sometimes sound nasal, and are often shouted instead of sung in a conventional sense. Complicated guitar solos are considered self-indulgent and unnecessary, although basic guitar breaks are common. Guitar parts tend to include highly distorted power chords. A wild, "gonzo" attack is sometimes employed. Bass guitar lines are often basic and used to carry the song's melody. Drums typically sound heavy and dry, and often have a minimal set-up. Production is minimalistic, with tracks sometimes laid down on home tape recordersHold My Calls/Nothing Girls
