Vesseles are a band from Santa Clara, California that plays a symphonic form of black metal and this is a review of their self released 2024 ep "I Am A Demon" which will be released in May.
A very fast sound starts off the ep along with a decent amount of tremolo picking and blast beats while symphonic elements are also mixed in with the heavier sections of the songs. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with some growls also being utilized at times and the music is heavily rooted in the mid 90's era.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. Clean playing can also be heard on a couple of tracks along with the riffs also adding in a decent amount of melody and all of the drum beats are also programmed as well as one track also being an instrumental, one song also adds in a brief use of choirs.
Vesseles plays a style of symphonic black metal that is very heavily rooted in the mid 90's era. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover dysphoria and coping with living in a world you are not from.
In my opinion Vesseles are a very great sounding symphonic black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "I Am A Demon" and "Dysphoria". 8 out of 10.
