Symphonic black metal ensemble Vesseles releases ‘Flesh Throne’

Through a majestic shroud of symphonic black metal, adorned with cinematic grandeur and emotional weight, VESSELES has revealed the visceral and empowering new anthem “Flesh Throne”. Valira, a demon cast into the human world, has returned to the fiery realms of her homeland. 

“‘Flesh Throne’ is a regal, thunderous, and grandiose embodiment of demonic symphonic black metal from the depths of The Beneath. Drenched in sovereignty and transformation, ‘Flesh Throne’ is about Valira (demon composer) reclaiming her power over humanity. This song is the perfect first track for the new era.

Upon writing the intro to the song, Valira immediately knew it had to have a powerful music video to go along with it, especially one with her sitting upon a throne judging the fate of feeble humans. That is exactly what it got.”

Founded in 2023, VESSELES is the sonic vessel through which Valira speaks the language of her origins. As composer, orchestrator, and architect, she crafts bleak, incantatory soundscapes that fuse serrated guitars with haunted symphonic textures. Her 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, she casts off the human shell and steps fully into her true form: demon, exile, survivor. VESSELES unveiled the debut EP I Am A Demon in 2024, a liturgy of identity dysphoria, rage, and revelation. In the new single, Valira steps out of the shadows reborn.
