Symphonic black metal project VESSELES has unveiled “Eternally Within Us (Reclaimed).” The single released alongside a visualizer lands ahead of the forthcoming full length, Home (Reclaimed), scheduled to arrive on March 26, 2027.
On “Eternally Within Us (Reclaimed),” Valira shares:
“The ritual track of the album, this offering delves into the birthing ritual in the Beneath with very grand verses enacting the mantras and a Latin section to truly make this the origin ceremony. With the newly reclaimed version, the verses have become elegantly harmonized, deepening the connection to Home.”
VESSELES is an artistic outlet allowing Valira the space to express and explore who they are. Home (Reclaimed) confronts the discomfort and complexity of what ‘home’ is to someone who is not from this world. Now recorded with their own vocals, Home (Reclaimed) captures fully Valira’s origins and purpose. In addition to the vocal performance, the album is filled with piano driven leads, grandiose symphonic compositions, dissonant passages and pained progressions encapsulating their experience.
Home (Reclaimed) was produced, mixed and mastered by Nick Loiacono at Fang Studios, San Mateo, CA. The album performance was by Valira Nyvran (vocals, guitars, composition, orchestrations, lyrics), Ron Graves (bass) and Nikolas Brön (drums). Special guests include Antonio Giardina (session piano) and The Vicken Studios Orchestra (choir chants on “Eternally Within Us (Reclaimed)”). Album cover artwork is by Mark Erskine.
About VESSELES:
Founded in 2023, VESSELES is the sonic vessel through which Valira speaks the language of their origins. As composer, orchestrator, and architect, they craft bleak, incantatory soundscapes that fuse serrated guitars with haunted symphonic textures. Their voice, at once seething and spectral, now rises with increasing clarity, layered across both backing and lead roles in studio and on stage. This is not performance. It is possession. Through sound, they cast off the human shell and step fully into their true form: demon, exile, survivor.
VESSELES unveiled the debut EP I Am A Demon in 2024, a liturgy of identity dysphoria, rage, and revelation. The debut full length offering Home emerged from the shadows at the turn of 2026, a devastating and majestic sophomore release that delves deep into identity, belonging, and the mythos of a demon cast into the human world.
Devised as a personal vessel for Valira, a demon entity discovering their truth through music, VESSELES fuses symphonic black metal with cinematic grandeur and emotional weight. This project is not just about sound; it’s about survival, transformation, and reclaiming power in a world that was never built for them.
