Hex Records started in 1999 as an extension of Hanging Like a Hex zine, which has been around in one form or another since 1995. Things started out with the Hex comp. 7" (Every Time I Die, Hermon DeKalb, Eternal Youth, and Nora) and not too long afterwards the first EP for Syracuse rock soldiers Spark Lights the Friction. Since that time Hex Records has released music from Inkling, Building On Fire, The Minor Times, Ed Gein, Cursed, Achilles, Engineer, The National Acrobat, No Idols, The Helm, Playing Enemy, and more to come.
The goal of Hex Records is to release music that is challenging to both the conventions of hardcore and punk, as well as towards the general public, with an emphasis on community, trust, and friendship.
Here's some of the stuff I've released:
The New Scheme #20 is out now, featuring Majority Rule retrospective, City of Ships, My Heart To Joy, Disappearer, Beware of Safety, Quieting Syrup, and more. You can click on the cover to download the new issue.

I just wanted you to know that, if you ever want to talk, I'd be more than happy to talk to you! & thank you very much for adding Anthropogenic Records. This label takes a lot of elbow grease, but I wouldn't rather do anything else in the world. I hope it shows.
Thanks yet again, and I hope to talk to you soon! -Clips, AR
Always had love for your label. Was super stoked about being able to snag the oak and bone record from you @ the horror fest then playin with them the next day.
haha its fine, I do cross promotion all the time. That reminds me, I want to order the Oak & Bone and Night Owls records from you. Can you let me know pricing on those?
Been a while, what's been up? I'm looking for an excuse to come to Syracuse again soon, give me one haha... any shows coming up you think are worth traveling for?
i assume you're going to have some sort of label table at the rosetta show june 7th, but in case you don't, bring me a copy of the night owls cd that I can buy off of you!
