It\'s hard to imagine what the music of the 2010s and beyond might sound like without Burial. His smoky breakbeats and melancholic vocal samples helped set the tone for both underground bass music and universally acclaimed albums like *Beyoncé*. But the reason for his impact probably has less to do with his techniques than the overwhelming sense of loneliness he conjures. Desolate songs like \"Archangel\" and \"In McDonalds\" are the sound of deepest despair, but also of silver linings.

8.4 / 10

The dubstep artist follows his critically acclaimed debut with the even richer*,* more complex, and more enveloping Untrue, a record of reverb-heavy and mournful songs that feel almost like beautiful secrets being whispered to a listener.

Burial, the self-titled debut album by an anonymous dubstep producer from London, proved one of the more surprising success stories of 2006.
