burial - untrue

archangel (audio only)


raver (audio only)


Burials new album Untrue has been out for a week now. It wouldn't surprise me if this, his second album, will become as important for dubstep as Goldies Timeless album was for drum & bass. Untrue is a dark slow paced album. Waves of bass moves on together with minimalistic rythm patterns. Short warped R'n'B samples gives it all a feeling of loneliness and longing. They sound like echoes of distant prayers or mantras. I've tried the album on the commuter and it gave the ride a surreal dream like quality. I wasn't really sure if I was awake or asleep. This is my favourite album so far this year. Pure beauty.
