After tiring of the patterns he sensed himself settling into as a guitar player, Ben Chasny designed a theoretical framework that forced his hands into different positions. February's loud, aggressive Hexadic, his public debut with the system, felt like an attempt to declare its formidable nature. For Hexadic II, he's used the same results of the system to create gentler solo versions of the songs.
