Hexvessel – Polar Veil LP

Hexvessel – Polar Veil LP

Hexvessel, the enigmatic Finnish band known for their genre-defying musical conjurations, is thrilled to announce the highly anticipated second vinyl pressing of their sixth album, "Polar Veil," via Svart Records, including new limited vinyl colours and a poster! Following the unexpected shift in tone from their Psychedelic Folk roots to a more atmospheric Black Metal sound, "Polar Veil" not only garnered Hexvessel a broader and even more diverse audience but also became one of Svart Records' best-selling albums of 2023.

Originally released to critical acclaim, "Polar Veil" earned the title of #1 Metal Album of the year in Sweden's Aftenposten newspaper, secured the #2 spot in Inferno Magazine's top 10 domestic Metal Albums of the year, and claimed the #13 position in Soundi's top 20 domestic albums of the year after receiving a stellar 5/5 review. The album was also nominated for Band of The Year in the Finnish Indie Awards, setting the stage for an exciting year of live shows in 2024.

Hexvessel's sixth album "Polar Veil" is a mesmerising journey into the Sub Arctic North, weaving together elements of Black Metal, Ritual Folk Psychedelia, and Doom Rock. The second LP pressing is available on Svart exclusive transparent violet vinyl, limited transparent yellow vinyl, and standard issue black vinyl. Each pressing comes with a large-scale 12-page booklet featuring artwork by Thomas Hooper and the Svart exclusive edition also has a poster showcasing Benjamin König's stunning, jaw-dropping cover artwork.
