Saint Burial
Deliver Us from Our Isolation
When I can't take it anymore, I write a letter to Burial.

I know that Hyperdub has released two fulllength CDs-Burial and, last week, Untrue-and two EPs. I also know that Burial is a genius, a great drummer (or drum programmer), and is on the far left of the political spectrum. As for his real name?...
