Wellington-based trio, HEX reflect the chaos approaching post-capitalism, with heavy drums underpinning intricate guitar riffs and dual vocals. They bring their sharp, anthemic, wholly unapologetic and raw pagan-punk to Australia for the very first time.

To celebrate, the trio recently debuted “Page Of Pentacles”

“Page Of Pentacles” follows on from “The Moon” both taken from the trio’s debut LP, out later this year. 

Birthed in 2015 from a musical lineage that spans classical to folk to punk to metal, the trio of Liz Mathews and GG and Kiki Van Newtown have already graced the stages next to Acid King,The Kills, and Dinosaur Jr.

 HEX’s  raw and fierce act, and their take on love, life, community and politics has seen them carving out a mode of connection outside of traditional rock’n’roll tropes as they move methodically between harmony and discord with tempo shifts and interweaving melodies devolving into psychedelic breakdowns before drawing together in resolve.
