Integrating elements of Black Metal, Sludge, Hardcore and Post-Metal into their sound, HEXIS further developed and refined their artistic approach on the new album. On the twelve fresh compositions, the Copenhagen road-warriors present the most varied and simultaneously most stringent material of their discography. Without doubt, “Aeternum” will leave its mark on the scene and enthrall all fans of dark and crushing music.
The album is officially released via Debemur Morti Productions today and can be listened to via Bandcamp or on the label’s YouTube channel:
Frontman Filip notes:
“This is without a doubt the most important release for us so far. It feels like we finally made the record we always wanted to. So, to have “Aeternum” out more than 5 years after our latest long player simply feels amazing. Beware: During the coming European tour, we will mainly just play new songs, only one or two old classics will be part of the setlist. Most of the new album will be played live, except for a few tracks which we already played on the two latest tours. We definitely want to make sure that all the new songs get their chance in a live setting to see what works best!“
HEXIS‘ third album immediately caught the attention of fans and the press:
“For your Blackened Hardcore/Post Black Metal needs, look no further than HEXIS!” (Wonderbox)
““Aeternum” is an easy recommendation and a highwater mark for these Københavner ghouls.” (Decibel)
““Aeternum” arguably becomes the band’s most essential release in which the rooms for improvement have been fulfilled, making it difficult to identify any areas of weakness.” (Metal Epidemic)
The album is available on CD, tape, vinyl and digitally. Orders for “Aeternum” as well as an accompanying t-shirt design (men/women) are possible via the label’s EU, US and Bandcamp shops.
Starting with the release show on August 26th, HEXIS will embark on an extensive tour through Europe, ending in Svendborg (Denmark) on November 5th. See the concrete dates here:
HEXIS emerged in Denmark in the year 2010, following the DIY-spirit of the Punk and Hardcore scene, while simultaneously being deeply rooted in the Black Metal sound. They are self-made as well as self-taught, and HEXIS are constantly travelling the world. With over 700 shows from the Faroe Islands to New Zealand and from Cuba to Mongolia under their belt, these guys have been the archetype of a hard-working and hard-hitting band.
Combining the energy of Hardcore with the desolation of Black Metal and throwing in bits and pieces of Doom and Sludge, HEXIS have crafted two full-length albums, namely “Abalam” (2014) and “Tando Ashanti” (2017), as well as countless EPs and Split-releases. The musicians behind HEXIS are located all over Europe and they have been praised for both their outstanding records and, first and foremost, for their intense live shows that took them to high ranking festivals such as Roskilde, Bloodstock, Roadburn or Ieper Fest.
HEXIS have inked a deal with Debemur Morti Productions in 2020 and released their third album on August 26th, 2022.
