Burial or interment is the act of placing a person or object into the ground. This is accomplished by excavating a pit or trench, placing an object in it, and covering it over.
Intentional burial, particularly with grave goods, may be one of the earliest detectable forms of religious practice since, as Philip Lieberman suggests, it may signify a "concern for the dead that transcends daily life." Though disputed, evidence suggests that the Neanderthals were the first human species to intentionally bury the dead, doing so in shallow graves along with stone tools and animal bones. Exemplary sites include Shanidar in Iraq, Kebara Cave in Palestine and Krapina in Croatia. Some scholars, however argue that these bodies may have been disposed of for secular reasons.
The earliest undisputed human burial, discovered so far, dates back 130,000 years. Human skeletal remains stained with red ochre were discovered in the Skhul cave at Qafzeh, Palestine. A variety of grave goods were present at the site, including the mandible of a wild boar in the arms of one of the skeletons.
Kieran Hebden (born 1978, Putney, London) is a post-rock and electronic musician. Hebden first came to prominence as a member of the band Fridge before establishing himself as a solo artist under the moniker of Four Tet.
Hebden's music typically eschews the traditional pop song format in favour of a more abstract approach—his sound and melodies incorporate elements of hip hop, electronica, techno, jazz, and folk music with live instrumentation.
Alongside recording his own material, Hebden has also performed remixes for a number of artists including Aphex Twin, Anti-Pop Consortium, Bonobo, Beth Orton, Born Ruffians, Explosions in the Sky, Super Furry Animals, Radiohead, Manic Street Preachers, Matthew Dear, Sia, Nathan Fake, Bloc Party, Andrew Bird, Kings of Convenience, Battles, Juana Molina, Madvillain, The xx, Foals, and Black Sabbath, as well as producing two albums by psychedelic improvisational group Sunburned Hand of the Man. Hebden's recent output includes a number of improvisational works with the late jazz drummer Steve Reid and collaborations with both Burial and Thom Yorke.

Yet you want I, com'a, com'a funeral
Make your friend come, claim, say, "You are the geni?"

When will this winter end?
The snow's been fallin' for months
The town all dressed in white
A cold sun in disguise
An assault from the mornin' light
My burial
I can't succeed
Frozen and paralyzed
Oh winter [x8]
Oh no [x6]
Oh winter [x8]
Burial brought by harsh addiction
Death on hard ground dark destructive
Dragging bones over wastelands deaddry
Turning weary, cold and dying
Alcohol will blur these eyes
Witches brew shall turn this skin
Cursing liquid forces this blood
A being cold murder struck
Filthy blood through rotted veins
Yet another grimfoul sickness
Death the sharpest blade to swallow
Life the easiest wings to burn
Triumph of the darkwood moondust craving
A sanctuary black with despair
With bonehard determination
Misery is all we know lately
Saturday's are all the same
Sympathy is overrated
Like a snapshot when you've lost the game
Now its the funeral I become the serial killer of us all
Now its the funeral I become the serial killer of us all
No I don't wanna get thrown in your ocean
Don't try
You know that we already know you
It's over
At your, own burial don't forget to cry
At your, own burial
Looking at my 81st birthday
Everyday this body goes to waste
Remembering how I would raise an army when we went back to your place
Now it's the funeral I become a serial killer of us all
Now it's the funeral I become a serial killer of us all
No I, don't wanna get thrown in your ocean
Don't try, you know that we already know you
It's over
At your own burial, don't forget to cry
At your own burial
At your own burial, don't forget to cry
the mosquito has landed
it penetrates the skin
the parasites get buried
it spreads the disease
the chemist in a lab
looks for a cure
under the scope
hidden in blood
a resistance grows
threatening life
work to defeat
chemicals to fight
defenseless system
slowly goes weak
epidemic
major confusion
burial victims
infectious blight
death comes quick
without a clue
perhaps its buried
You I want to know, now If we didn't need Would I know?
Couldn't love Shine I want to know, now
Couldn't know Just... Couldn't know But...
You I want to know, now If we didn't need Would I know?
Couldn't love Shine I want to know, now Now Now

God, can you please hurry and find me?
I wasn't sure if we could be friends
God, can you please hurry and find me?
I wasn't sure if we could be friends
God, can you please hurry and find me?
So close so far we see who we are
we've come so far but we still bleed we still scar
We can't let go of these memories buried whole
What makes us us what makes us close
You can't create you can't unfold
A bond that can not be broken
One word one voice
One word one choice
Blessed is he who has got
His transgressions forgiven
And his sins hidden
Blessed is the man whom the Lord
Do not ascribe misdeeds
And is without deceit in his spirit
Buried it deep inside
But soon a sprout came forth
It kept on growing
I couldn't hide
When I kept it to myself
Slowly my bones corroded
And my vitality vanished
Like in the summer dry
Too many people living this life
Who can take their guilt away?
Their minds are rotting
And causing endless pain
Soon they are demented and put away
I confessed my sins to You
And did not hide my guilt
I said "I want to confess my
misdeeds to you"
And he took my sins and guilt
Me and you know
this is love
and I see
Me and you know
this is love
when I'm around you
when I'm around
nobody loves me
no, no
nobody loves me
nobody loves me
Me and you know
this is love
Me and you know
this is love
when I'm around you
when I'm around
Nobody loves me
no, no
Victims themselves of a close encounter
Desperate abducters, constructers become infected,
vexed
By an alien virus, so alien, so viral
Living spaceapes, creatures, covered, smothered in ripe
tentacles
Stimulating the audio nerve directly
You wanna come flex with me
Hallucinating senses individually, insiduosly
are in any combination, rhymically
Shifting gears, focus upon intensity
wait, big people a talk nobody try fuck with i-man
clarity
Mind starts slippin to familiar tracks
Bending warping, interfering with the facts
Sensory language leaves us with no habit for lying
We are hostile aliens, immune from dying
Don't Harass me for not behaving correct
I only want to slide my arm round your neck
Interpretation, electro-chemical stimulation
The sensation you feel is entirely real
All that we share is our struggle for silence
We don't wanna bother with no arms house business,
no shooting no violence
sensory language twist snake like a limb
Flexible, versitile, curious like twins
Transparent in the way that it moves
With sufficient memory
To cut clean through you..
Victims themselves, from a close encounter
Desperate abductors, constructors, becoming infected,

By an alien virus, so alien, so viral
Living spaceapes, creatures, covered, smothered in

Stimulating the audio nerve directly
You wanna come flex with me
Hallucinating senses individually, insiduosly
are in any combination, rhymically
Mind starts slippin familar tracks
Bending warping, interfering with the facts
Sensory language leaves us with no habit for lying
Hey you, what time do you call this?
Your tea's been ready don't you give it a miss
I'm off out mum, I won't be home
You are on the streets to roam
Listen to me 'cause I'm still your mother
You aren't as old as your brother
You come home and cheek me once more my lad
So away from this house, away from the door
Let me say, I ain't a kid
And if you want you can easy get rid
I'm moving out, I'm getting a flat
As soon as I can and I won't be back
Listen to me 'cause I'm still your mother
You aren't as old as your brother
You come home and cheek me once more my lad
So away from this house, away from the door
Of night, takes me home
I stumble about, on my own
Oh, as my half naked body hits the bed
There's a hundred thoughts in my head
Oh, I wish I'd listened to my mother
Because I aren't as old as my brother
And if I ever drink once more I swear
