| 1.5 very poor | Suli | May 22nd 17 |
Never thought I'd say this about Burial's work but this is just boring, uninspired & insignificant. Young Death/Nightmarket was a step in the wrong direction this is a leap off a cliff.

Half-assed ambient with neither soul nor heart. The only kinda interesting thing here is these cracks and the classic Burial voices during Subtemple, and he's already done before that in a better way.

Since Rival Dealer, what we've gotten from Burial, at least when it comes to his usually immaculate EP's, are songs based almost entirely in ambient, with very little of the "future garage" and dubstep that he made his name on. These compositions, including Subtemple, aren't bad, but they're a tad uneventful. The little repeating musical motifs that so often characterized his older work still remain though smaller in scale, and make the songs here worth a listen. I for one wouldn't be averse to an LP of ambient Burial, but I would hope that just a little bit more would be happening during the songs themselves.

Come on Burial, what's happening here? Past 2 EP's have been so formless, nothing captures the ears, it's just there... Most of it sounds like sound design rather than music. It's like he's grown a phobia of using drums and melody in his music.
