Hexvessel - Nocturne - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Founded in the magical forests of Finland, via the green and pleasant lands of England and Ireland, Hexvessel are wyrd folk. Formed in 2009 by Mat InchKvohstInch McNerney, who having already made a name for himself in extreme metal bands in the UK where he was born and raised, and again in the Norwegian Black Metal scene, finally found his home in the land of the midnight sun.

The Barren Form is a relentless and unforgiving exhibition of misery and despair. The technicality and weight of the prior album, Atmospheres of Desolation, remain persistent on this subsequent . But, through an elevated form of songwriting and introspective lyrical content, InchThe Barren FormInch creates a more suffocating and bleak aura. Each track embodies a manifestation of depression, grief, anxiety, and fear - a fitting theme for present day. The intent of the album is to unsettle and consume the listener. Album Tracks 1. Exordium 2. Depletion 3. Infinitesimal 4. Engulfed 5. Contrivance 6. Dissolution
