On the contrary - most folks in bass music are waiting with bated breath for Burial to evolve beyond his initial album instead of offering the same, particularly as a number of his imitators are starting to outdo him in many regards. The general awareness of how effectively the Basic Channel folks had utilized space and noise in the '90s, as partly the genesis to Burial's style but done in a much less amateur way, is also creating tangible pressure for him to prove that he's not an overhyped one-trick pony.
In general, hype over this new offering seems to be the domain of journalists looking for something exciting to talk about, as opposed to active members of the scene fostering talent that deserves to be heard.
