CoC : Burial - Mourning the Millennium : Review

Burial - _Mourning the Millennium_
(Independent, 1999)
by: Adrian Bromley (4 out of 10)

See, if the music on this record was a bit better than what we got here, then I would have given this LP by Burial a better mark. But I won't. The music, going along quite nicely with the mediocre (if that) vocals, is a rather poor affair when you break down the sounds the band is working with. Death growls and overused song structures help shape this five-song outing into a pretty much generic sounding effort. No real ideas are carried out here, rather focusing on fast as fuck drum beats and such sinister vocal arrangements. I'm feeling left in the cold here, guys -- this gets boring after a while and I'm hopefully the last one to tell you that.
