Hex A.D. returns with their most epic project to date! The upcoming double LP Delightful Sharp Edges, out May 12th on Apollon Records, is a concept album that deals with genocide.

The record is a three-part narrative that takes the listener on amusical 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, and it’s safe to say that this album sees Hex A.D. show their most larger-than-life tendencies.

Today the band revealed the first single titled The Memory Division !

The Memory Division is the cornerstone of this new album. The song is an account of how Herman Sachnowitz was caught and deported, together with his family, to Auschwitz in the autumn of 1942. Combining classic heavy riffs and a proggy approach to the arrangements fit the story perfectly.

Never has a Norwegian band gone this far in creating a proper concept album in the proud tradition of the masters from the 1970s, and this one truly hits the mark. It has become a roller-coaster ride of emotions, from the haunting, sweet and the 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, either as stand-ins or from associated past projects.

Music such as this is the perfect vehicle for a big stage production, and Hex A.D. are about to show the hard rock world that they are a force to be reckoned with. The massive new stage setup is a one-of-a-kind construction that sets the mood for the show in a unique way. This is Hex A.D. stepping up!
