Olympia, Washington, USA (1990 – present)
There are several artists using the name “Earth”.
1) The most well-known Earth is an american drone doom band formed in 1990 in Olympia, Washington, USA by Dylan Carlson, Slim Moon, and Greg Babior. They are pioneers in the minimalistic and repetitive form of doom metal known as drone doom. The band at some point moved to Seattle where Carlson forged a strong friendship with grunge music icon Kurt Cobain, who sang lead vocals for the song
Divine and Bright on the live album Sunn Amps and Smashed Guitars. Cobain also appeared as a “specialist” on Earth’s 1990 debut release Extra-Capsular Extraction, and sang backing vocals on A Bureaucratic Desire for Revenge Part 2. Joe Preston, who played bass briefly with the Melvins, also appears on this 3 song CD.
Dylan Carlson has been the driving force of the band and still remains the core of an everchanging line-up. As of the release of their most recent album (entitled The Bees Made Honey In The Lion’s Skull), Earth consists of Dylan Carlson (guitars/amplifiers), Adrienne Davis (drums/percussion), Steve Moore (acoustic and electric pianos/wurlitzer) and Don McGreevy (acoustic/electric bass). Bill Frisell appeared as a guest guitarist on three songs.
Earth’s official website is www.thronesanddominions.com
2) Earth was also an australian death metal band from Melbourne. They are rarely active as they don’t play live, except on occasion as part of international tours. They were well known in the Melbourne Metal scene and played many times at Metal For The Brain (a long-running annual Australian Heavy Metal festival held in Canberra, which ended its run in 2006).

@almightyjoey: check out Neil Young's score to the film Dead Man. it's so close, Hex could be an alternate score for the film, I'm serious. other than that, no, nothing sounds that similar.

Are there any more bands that sound like Hex-Earth? I can't find anything like it without going into Western Movie scores or Country music. (Not that there's anything wrong with those).

Hex and Hibernaculum are good but I grew bored of them pretty fast. I still actively listen to the first four albums. I haven't even listened to The Bees... yet. Demo 1990 is pretty good too. By the way kids, fuck Geometry Of Murder. Only Methadrine is true.

yeah, Hex is fucking incredible. I was listening to the Dead Man soundtrack and realized that I needed to hear Hex. Mainly because one of the William Blake quotes is the exact full title of the album...
