Does anyone know what instruments are used in this song?

Talk Talk is the most similar, especially on Laughing Stock. If it's down-tempo post-rock you're after, check out the Dirty Three's 1998 album Ocean Songs. But post-rock in general, I'd have to go with Mogwai, Tortoise (personal favorite band), June of 44, Hood, Mono, and Sigur Ros. I can find more, the post-rock scene of the 90s was actually bigger than most people realize.

@Oceangiraffe I only found out about this today through TNPS drummer's twitter, I think one of the guys from this band produced TNPS album. What a find, its made my week.

Oceangiraffe, can you recomend any other artists? so far latter day Talk Talk (spirit of edn and laughing stock ) are the only things that are slightly simmilar, but still not as good as HEX.

Oceangiraffe, I totally agree with you, I have played this album everyday for a year or so, but nobody I know can see it for what it really is. I wake up really early in the morning, about 4am, and it used to be a problem, now I look forward to it as I can play Hex in the small hours without interuption.Bliss!

You want to know the hardest thing to do? Get your friends to like this album.

Seriously, I feel all alone with this one sometimes. Why can't people understand its beauty? Just one of the greatest albums ever made...
