Burial

Ghost Hardware

Burial - Ghost Hardware

The Ghost Hardware ep does not represent any great stylistic shift by the planet’s most high-profile artistic recluse, yet neither does it languidly retread the paths already mapped... it is simply further first rate evidence of Burial's alchemic manipulation of mood, rhythm and sound. The ominous bass tones are as dense as they ever were, the strings still rise up from unexpected depths, and the disembodied siren voices sustain their mournful cries from the bleak empty quarters of consciousness, while those trademark rhythmic complexities continue to dance their intricate steps.
