eleased on Hyperdub in 2006 as his self-titled debut; the enigmatic artist, known only to the public as Burial, is easily one of the best artists I’ve heard in a really long time. I’ve been listening to this record for some months now, but I can’t remember the last time I was into a record as much as this. As soon as I’m done here, I’m heading out to look for the LP of his January 2008 release, “Untrue”, which is supposed to be a phenomenal follow up to this self-titled debut.

Anyway, I could spend the next 10 – 20 minutes trying to come up with some really in depth statement about how this record is just amazing, but instead I’m just going to end it here, and let one of my favorite tracks from this record titled Broken Home do the talking.

I really hope you enjoy this as much as I do.

Oh, and if you’re interested in where to buy this record, you should head over to boomkat. They’ve got a great selection of records to peruse.
