Rival Dealer

by Burial

Rival Dealer cover art

This profoundly thematic release represents a stark stylistic departure, integrating urgent breakbeats and uncharacteristically uplifting 1980s R&B samples. It incorporates extensive speech fragments, notably from Lana Wachowski, focusing explicitly on themes of transgender identity, acceptance, and sexual liberation. The closing tracks shift into sprawling, emotional ambient suites.
