This RYM review goes some way to summing up my feelings towards this and what he was going for with this release:

For anyone that thinks these tunes aren't what 'Burial' is supposed to be, strictly based off of whether or not they sound like his earlier works, read this direct quote:

"What I want is that feeling when you're in the rain, or a storm. It's a shiver at the edge of your mind, an atmosphere of hearing a sad, distant sound, but it seems closer - like it's just for you." - William Bevan

In this release Burial opens a local portal for any of us that view old-school menacing DnB rollers as sad, distant sounds of a scene that we never got to experience.

Album Rating: 4.0

That's kinda the point. It's not so much the music itself that draws you in, it's the atmosphere that it's presented in and the unique context that Burial has somehow given it.

Honestly don't understand why people don't love this. Pre dawn is a killer track with so many nuances. One of his darkest joints to date. The ending is so beautiful- i love when he keeps adding layers of ambiance and weird voice manipulation

Album Rating: 3.0

indoors is great. the problem is pre dawn is pretty tedious / unremarkable imo.

Lol i think pre dawn is better

Album Rating: 3.0

that's cool. i like the end of pre dawn like u said. the rest just doesn't do much for me

Yeah idk i love the atmosphere. It's very eerie and there's so many subtle little samples thrown in. Almost sounds like something you'd hear in a horror game

this is much better than the other two from this year and Young Death wtf

"Honestly don't understand why people don't love this"

hearing this for the first time and i also find myself asking this

that said,

"In this release Burial opens a local portal for any of us that view old-school menacing DnB rollers as sad, distant sounds of a scene that we never got to experience."

i have no idea wtf this is on about haha

"Almost sounds like something you'd hear in a horror game"

holy shit when you put it that way pre dawn does give me the slightest bit of a system shock 2 vibe

not gonna lie this is at least a 3.5 for me i think

Album Rating: 3.5

"Indoors is a banger, favorite track post-Rival Dealer. "
