A powerful metal opus, blending soaring vocals, intricate melodies, and thunderous riffs for an epic listening experience. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 26, 2023

A beautiful album by a beautiful band, Vessels has to be one of my all time favorites due to the ingenious nature of the album's storytelling. I absolutely love the way each song meanders through a story that is picked up and expanded upon by the next, ultimately terminating epically with Smoke of Many Fires. Grasping Light, however, has me by the neck particularly. "There walks a man, there runs his fate" is an unimaginably hard line by any metric. captaincreep
