The Story
Hex; Or Printing in the Infernal Method is the fourth full-length studio album by Earth.
Contains a special vinyl only bonus track.
Comes with 18″x24” poster exclusive to this release.
Marking a new direction the band would follow in years to come, Hex stands in stark contrast to Earth’s previous works. While retaining the extremely heavy doom/drone metal song structure of epic riffs over simple repetitive drum beats, the guitar was inflected with country influences that favored a cleaner reverb-heavy tone layered with acoustic instruments over the band’s previous predilection for distortion. The press release cited diverse influences such as Ennio Morricone, Billy Gibbons, Neil Young’s soundtrack to the movie Dead Man, country musicians Duane Eddy, Merle Haggard, and Roy Buchanan.
Tracklist:
01. Mirage
02. Land of Some Other Order
03. The Dire and Ever Circling Wolves
04. Left in the Desert
05. Lens of Unrectified Night
06. An Inquest Concerning Teeth
07. Raiford (The Felon Wind)
08. The Dry Lake
09. Tethered to the Polestar
10. Untitled (vinyl-only bonus track)
