Vesseles are a band from Santa Clara, California that has been featured before in this zine and plays a symphonic form of black metal and this is a review of their album "Home" which will be self released in 2026.
Symphonic sounds and orchestration starts off the album while also mixing in with the heaver sections of the songs. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard along with the vocals being mostly high pitched black metal screams mixed in with a few growls.
A lot of the music is also very heavily rooted in the mid 90's era while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with some clear singing also being utilized at times as well as a couple of the tracks also being very long and epic in length, spoken words are added on the closing track.
On this recording Vesseles remains true to the symphonic style of black metal that they had established on their previous release. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover the mythos of a demon cast into the human world.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Vesseles and if you are a fan of symphonic black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Flesh Thone" "Home" and "There is Not Hope". 8 out of 10.
