Burial releasing new EP Antidawn next month

14 December 2021, 12:03 | Written by Cerys Kenneally

Burial has announced a new EP titled Antidawn, which will be dropping early next month.

Antidawn will be Burial's first new music since May's "Dolphinz", which was the b-side to his "Chemz" track.

On top of releasing "Dolphinz" this year, Burial collaborated with Blackdown on the Shock Power of Love EP.

The announcement of Antidawn states that it "explores an interzone between dislocated, patchwork songwriting and eerie, open-world, game space ambience."

"In the resulting no man's land, lyrics take precedence over song, lonely phrases colour the haze, a stark and fragmented structure makes time slow down," the announcement adds. "Antidawn seems to tell a story of a wintertime city, and something beckoning you to follow it into the night. The result is both comforting and disturbing, producing a quiet and uncanny glow against the cold. Sometimes, as it enters 'a bad place', it takes your breath away. And time just stops."

Tracklist:

  1. Strange Neighbourhood
  2. Antidawn
  3. Shadow Paradise
  4. New Love
  5. Upstairs Flat
Burial's Antidawn EP will be released digitally on 6 January 2022, with physical copies following on 28 January, and is available to pre-order now.
