After nearly 20 years of activity from this restless Horror Electronics / Post-Industrial project, many Burial Hex compilation tracks have been released, often of a very unique and high quality as Clay Ruby seemed to enjoy taking compilation submission requests as an opportunity to offer new perspectives on their already bizarre and eclectic work.

"In Hiding" features a carefully curated selection of the crucial Burial Hex compilation tracks, gathering and remastering them together, striving to create a resonance between disparate sources, forming an extraordinary new experience.

Many of the tracks were from cassettes, vinyl, or digital-only releases for labels such as Brave Mysteries, Aurora Borealis, Clan Destine, Small Doses, and Buh, appearing here on CD for the first time - or in the case of 'Pentitential March', never-before released. Clay Ruby has remixed each track, in some cases re-envisioning them specifically to live together coherently in this incarnation, making this collection more like a new studio album rather than another anthology compilation.

Revelling in the intimate, feral surrealism that we have come to know without parallel from this intoxicating project, "In Hiding" is an excellent view into the romantic Promethean theater of Burial Hex, whether for the neophyte or the adept.

CD in matt-laminate digipak with artwork by Nathaniel Ritter (Kinit Her).

REVIEWS:

"Had I not known they were from compilations covering several years, it sounded as if this was a new record. The music is loud and with much strength... Just as easily as Burial Hex exerts control in his music, he lets it all explode into a cascade of noise... it is ominous and theatrical, Burial Hex is a dirty, hairy, massive beast that will eat you alive. Shiver and enjoy" (Vital Weekly)

"Entführt uns Burial Hex in eine dunkle, düstere Welt voller Geheimnisse und Mysterien... erwarten Dich Sounds, die wie Monster unter dem Bett hervorkommen und mit kratzenden, kreischenden und schreienden Geräuschen auflauern. Aufgesetzt auf natürlichen, plätschernden Flächen, auf Musik, die man eher in einem melancholischen Zirkus erwarten würde oder auf künstlichen Synthesizer Samples, entsteht eine sich widersprechende Atmosphäre, die den Gruselfaktor hervorragend unterstreicht. Ein klares Gänsehautalbum der etwas anderen Art" (Orkus)

"Prolific dark ambient and post-industrial musician Burial Hex (Clay Ruby) offers a career spanning compilation. Nocturnal atmosphere and suspense abound. RIYL: Coil, Zoät-Aon, Lustmord, and Psychic TV" (Norman Records)

"Molto d'atmosfera: le ambientazioni sono pacate ma tenebrose e minacciose e mi hanno ricordato i Current 93 di In Menstrual Night... Il finale è apocalittico e satanico. Ma, in generale, le tracce qui presenti si mantengono nel tipico stile dei Burial Hex e riescono a donare all'ascoltatore dei genuini brividi da colonna sonora di un film horror" (Ver Sacrum)
