Hex A.D. - Delightful Sharp Edges (Black 2LP)
This is an Apollon Records release.
Hex A.D. returns with their most epic project to date! Delightful Sharp Edges is a concept album that deals with genocide. The record is a three-part narrative that takes the listener on a musical and lyrical journey into the horrors and tragedies of organized liquidation on a massive scale. Musically speaking, the band has ventured into new melodic territories inspired by Thin Lizzy and Wishbone Ash, as well as having gone deeper into their doomy and progressive roots. The stories told through the lyrics have dictated much of the musical expression on this massive piece of work. It’s safe to say that this album sees Hex A.D. show their most larger-than-life tendencies.
Never has a Norwegian band gone this far in creating a proper concept album in the proud tradition of the masters from the 1970s. This one truly hits the mark. It is a roller-coaster ride of emotions - from the haunting, sweet and epic to the doomy and spine chilling. To be able to reproduce this grand new sound in a live setting, the band have added a second drummer and an additional guitar player. Both musicians go back decades with the members of Hex A.D, both as stand-ins or from associated past projects.
