i'm far more interested in the forthcoming 12" than the tabloid bullshit
anyway
i've done my best to be as unbiased as possible with the wiki update. if anyone has any suggestions, i'm all ears
now why is that url tag not working?

this thread is now about keeping it real

sucks because I think Burial was keeping real as much as keeping it real goes :/.
Without an identity to put to a person's face, there is no pre-judgment of a specific sound right? So he was putting his music out, and it was truely all about the music.
Btw, who the fuck in the Sun or anyone in the world for that matter is trying to dig out someone's identity like he was Batman? Someone is actually sitting up at night saying "I will find out who you are Burial.. if its the last thing I do!!!"
He/she would be shaking his/her fist in a vigorous manner as saying this...
Come on...

In theory, yes. However, people became so concerned with his identity that it was no longer
all about the music and more about
who is Burial?

I guess I was never one to really play into me giving two tugs of a dead dog's cock who or what Burial is :/.
And to boot, besides the hype, I think its fair to say that through alot of experiences I have had, I am disappointed with the artists when I find out more about their personal life (not that I know Burial is a dodgy guy). I mean, Aphex Twin is an artist I have loved ever since I heard his first note touch my ears, but the guy could be a proper tnuc you know? I guess I prefer anonymity especially its when someone obviously chooses it.

He's favourite to win one of the biggest music prizes in the UK, but no-one (until now) knows who he is. It's a story, they are journalists... I hate the tabloids as much as the next man, but there's some shocking levels of naivety in this thread...

I find it a bit sickening that gutter press intrusion has a detrimental effect on an artists choices.
Still, back to the music and I can't wait for the next EP.
