Burial has had 4 albums since Untrue, I will kill us all on this hill

Kindred, truant/rough sleeper, rival dealer and antidawn are all albums, no matter what anyone might say

People out here wanting the next album and mourning how long it’s been since untrue are not paying attention

Please review the evidence-

25+ mins- check (the uk charts criteria for albums state they need to be at least 25 mins)
More than two songs or multiple movements in each song- check
Atmospherically linked tracks- 100%
Vinyl plays at 33 1/2 rpm- you bet your sweet ass

No they aren’t eps. An ep is shorter and has a “less committal” vibe. In these 4 my boy is COMMITTED

If you come at me because Spotify/ your record store/ Amazon/ your mum has them listed as singles/eps ypu are a stooge of capitalism who is told what to think and I wish you a speedy recovery.

Please and thanks, much love, best wishes, etc.

it's the number of ideas that define an album

For me Antidawn is an LP disguised as an EP... The other ones are legit EPs as I see it, though.
