If you want something similar to Burial, then I definitely recommend Clubroot


Jackhammer, you resolved a lot of my confusion regarding the genre. I went on a big dubstep hunting spree after hearing Burial for the first time about 6 months ago, and I couldn't get over how much I hated the synthetic, non-organic, agressive bass of everything I ran into. That Clubroot would have placated me for a while. I loved it. Now I'm gonna' explore some 2-step for a while.
