Hexen Valley, born in Calderdale’s bohemian underground, captures Gnod at their most intense and raw. Formed in a communal house in 2021, this shifting lineup distilled local “valley fever” into a potent mix of sludgy aggression, angular post-punk, and spontaneous sonic exploration. From the kinetic charge of “Still Running” to the explosive cover of Lou Reed’s “Waves of Fear,” Hexen Valley is a first-take, full-power plunge into catharsis and chaos—an unrelenting, haunted trip you won’t easily escape.
