Finding new inspiration, bands were beginning to experiment with techniques as the digital age took over
A masterpiece of unrivalled beauty and complexity, Bark Psychosis' Hex channels the experimentation of the group's prior singles into a more controlled setting; a series of atmospheric set pieces, the songs find a common ground between accepted musical formulas and avant innovation - at first glance, tracks like "Big Shot" and "Eyes & Smiles" appear tightly structured, yet they avoid the dynamics.

However, when Bark Psychosis came along with Hex, post rock finally developed a name for itself and what an album Hex proved to be. Boasting a lush sound and a truly masterful array of evocative songs, Hex exists as an influential masterpiece and if closely examined, one could easily see how Explosions In The Sky gets some of their influence

Bark Psychosis is a band from east London, England formed in 1986. Graham Sutton is the core of the group, supported by a dynamic roster of musicians. The line up for the seminal album "Hex" was Graham Sutton, Daniel Gish, John Ling, and Mark Simnett. Current members include Sutton, Colin Bradley, Lee Harris (formerly with Talk Talk), and others.
On their 1994 debut, Hex, Bark Psychosis are listening to each other, thinking about each other's responses to music. You can pick this up in the use of stereo in the recording of Hex, with a web of statements and replies between the channels between different percussion patterns and bass. And John Ling's bass itself in these recordings plays a humble, accenting but key role in the record's overall mood – the only time it really becomes a feature is on 'Big Shot', where it is ominous and propulsive. The pacing of Hex is surely influenced by the natural acoustics of St John's Church in Stratford, where it was recorded. Making an album in an unusual building can seem like a gimmick if the musicians aren't paying attention to their surroundings. With Hex there's a genuine sense of exploration, of inhabiting the space as they compose in it.
