This is one of the most unique sounding records of the decade. Somewhat less bleak than the first burial record, but with the same layer of white noise over it which adds a surreal warmth, even though the record is still pretty dark. Theres a huge sense of that late night calm/isolation, mixed with 2-step/garage/dubstep beats. Some interesting old style rave vocals that have been pitch change processed to death. Apparently this record was made without a sequencer, and it is believable as there is this sense of nervous liveness to the tracks, it steps away from that rigid and perfectly structured sound that you often get with sequenced music.
Quite incredible.
