Earth - Hex: Or printing in the Infernal Method

Anyone got this?

This truly is a killer lp. It's kinda like a doom laden spaghetti western soundtrack!
The lp has a bonus song that is one whole side of a record and it's pretty cool.

They came through here about a year or two ago in support of this album, but I
didn't have the album yet and missed them. I would have gone to the show if
I knew that record was so killer!

They are coming out with another album sometime soon called Hibernaculam
which is some re-recorded songs and some other songs from limited edition releases.
But they are also gonna have a DVD with it that has a tour documentary from the
HEX tour..

here is their myspace..

Being in an EARTH mode this evening, I was stumbling around
the interwebs and found this cool video interview..

He's right about guitar distortion !

I haven't yet checked out that interview, I'll do it later today.

But I'm glad you like the Hex album. Actually, I had only the Earth2
album for the longest time, and hearing from other people that later
Earth wasn't too good, I decided not to check into this. But (over
summer, was it?), Trogg burned Hex for me and I've found I like it
quite a bit. I don't see what people don't like about it. It's not
early Earth, but if it was, it would be boring because there would be
no progression to the band's sound.

Hex: Or printing in the Infernal Method

Amazing piece of mood music...so dark & sad...

The new album 'The Bees Made Honey In The Lion's Skull' has been on frequent rotation for the last couple months. The mood it creates is just amazing. It's a perfect meditation/reflection album, but is never boring. An extra bonus is the amazing Arik Roper cover art:



I actually picked up the album because Bill Frisell makes a guest appearance on a couple tracks (I wasn't familiar with the old Earth albums) but I was so blown away that I'm now working my way backwards through their catalog.

I have Hibernaculum and plan on picking up Hex next.

Earth is drone with a soul.

Dang, that's some excellent cover art! This band has been on my "got to check them out" list for too long now...
