lol made me think of christmas too

I hate saying it but I completely don't get Burial anymore. It doesn't seem to have any direction or flow. I think someone can only be hyped up so much before it gets to them, and this just feels self-indulgent.

Like a few of you, I'd trade everything from NYC/Stolen Dog/Thom Yorke & Four Tet collab onwards for a half decent quality Lambeth/Feral.

That's not the artist's fault though.

I think you forget just how long ago some of those tunes were made. When he talked about making Burial he said some of the tunes he sent to Kode9 for consideration were from 2001. Even if we're talking about Untrue era, that's getting on for 7 years ago. It's completely reasonable for an artist to want to change up what they're doing after that period of time. If Feral Witchchild doesn't get released, remember that it's at least 7 years old, and could be 12 years old. Burial/Kode9 might absolutely hate those tunes now.

Like the new Burial stuff or not, at least when he's changed his style up, it still doesn't sound like anything else out there, and it's not as if there's a shortage of people making Untrue-style tunes if that's what you wanna hear.

Theres changing it up then theres adding some A-Ha - Take On Me style drums half way through.

Hiders is a straight up horror. Even Benga didn't fall off THAT bad.

[Johoosh]

First Skrenga then Medi releasing Roni Size now Burial

Who is safe?

[ehbes]

A-Ha - Take On Me style drums half way through.

THANK YOU

And that's fair enough to think that it's shit or whatever, there's no rule saying you liked one Burial, you have to like them all. My comments were aimed at the people that constantly beg for speedball or feral witchchild to be released.

And I'd rather someone switch it up and still be unique. At least he isn't making "deep house"

[ehbes]

nah fuck that gimme feral witchchild on a fucking white label floppy disc

[lazyalf]

A-Ha - Take On Me style drums half way through.

THANK YOU

Funniest thing is that when I listened to the clips yesterday evening, Hiders was the one I was feeling the most. Then I listened to the whole track today and when those drums came in... Oh my

[antipode]

So you all hate Rival Dealer aswell as the other 2?
No one has much to say about the Aside.

I don't think the annoyance is at it being shit though.. its more at the quality control. The fact they put up preorders before any clips knowing full well people are going to buy it because they trust it'll be at least average.. its sort of taking advantage of the situation of Burial being so loved.

Imagine if it was just really horrible generic deep house, would you not moan if you preordered it?

It is a little misleading and its no wonder people think its a piss take.

I'm just thankful Rival Dealer is worth my preorder and I've certainly learnt my lesson lol

There's a simple answer to that though. Don't pre-order without hearing the tunes. Really got no sympathy for people that pre-order stuff that they haven't heard.

[Muncey]

No me either but that doesn't mean its okay to exploit the situation. Not saying Burial/Hyperdub have done so but you could definitely argue that they have lol.

[garethom]

Meh, they'd hardly be the first.

[ultraspatial]

lol @ that fact article. spot on about his fanboys

this

also mans been saying burial fell off/is shit everytime he released something in the last years

[oscarhenson]

Anyone else find it quite funny that the Fact article put so much emphasis on suggesting this record was Burial's way of coming out as gay or transgender - especially as they know he has no online presence to come and say anything about it

[garethom]

tbf, that fact article was just click bait. They know if they say enough stupid shit, people will share it on facebook.
