HEXVESSEL comment: „This song is a macrocosm of our new ‚Nocturne‘ album and it embraces all the elements that are represented throughout“, singer and songwriter Mat „Kvohst“ McNerney writes. „It ranges from epic black metal structures that evoke nature’s grand epiphany to the minimal synths as we drone out to the chaos of wild space. All the influences are there from Thorns to Tangerine Dream, Darkthrone to Philip Glass to Dead Can Dance. As an artistic tradition, a ‚Nocturne‘ captures the essence of night, a somber veil where nature is the liminal path.“
With their seventh full-length „Nocturne“, HEXVESSEL explore the liminal spaces between light and darkness, nature and solitude on an epic album. The ever evolving and shifting Finnish band has reawakened their treasured roots in folk music and psychedelic rock as they artfully weave acoustic interludes, cosmic synths, and spectral piano into the frost-spun threads on their black metal loom.
„Nocturne“ sounds both familiar and fearlessly progressive as echoes of tradition entwine with a fresh reinvention of their characteristic sound. According to singer and songwriter Mat „Kvohst“ McNerney, this work has been created to capture the essence of night, a sombre veil where nature is a path between worlds. It is furthermore revolving around spiritual growth, transcendence through darkness, and enlightenment.
With „Nocturne“, HEXVESSEL invite all souls on earth to a transcendental night ritual that is imbued with DARKTHRONE, TANGERINE DREAM, Philip Glass, and sounds unearthed from the dead past, now instilled with new life.
