Burial will release a new 5-track EP in next month. The Antidawn EP is out January 6 via Hyperdub on digital platforms, with a CD and vinyl release following on January 28. Today’s announcement comes with two images—the below EP artwork and a rare new Burial photo above. Find the tracklist below. Here’s how Hyperdub described the EP:

The record 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.

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.

The EP follows the 2021 releases “Dolphinz”—the B-side to 2020’s “Chemz”—and Shock Power of Love, his split EP with London producer Blackdown. Find the Antidawn listing on Bandcamp and read about “Dark Gethsemane” in Pitchfork’s list of “The 100 Best Songs of 2021.”
