Die finnischen Metaller HEXVESSEL sind so gut wie nicht in eine stilistische Schublade zu stecken, verquicken sie doch Elemente des (Atmospheric) Black mit Doom, Folk und Gothic Metal und erzeugen dabei eine dichte Atmosphäre und rituelle Stimmungen. Da macht auch die neue Single `Under The Lake´ keine Ausnahme.
Sänger/Gitarrist Mat Kvohst erklärt:
“I am a fiercely independent minded artist and Hexvessel has its own sound, ideology and spiritual path and I wanted a label that would respect, care for and nurture that wild art spirit. I have known and been friends with Martin Koller, Stefan Belda, and Prophecy for many years. We go back to the origin of Hexvessel and our first live shows abroad and they have always supported my work. I felt we would always be destined to work together in a creative aspect and I am proud to now come under the banner of a label that stands for true beauty in art and creative music.”

Lyrics:
Destinations
Lost souls can find
A sacred place
Where shadows dive
A different kind
Of northern light
The dark we drink
Sips from us
I’m just a mirror of what I used to be
Lost in reflections
Circles that increase
A stones throw
Through an acre of land
Stare through us
And we’ll stare back
Beneath reeds
Lies our watery bed
The living spirit of death
I’m just a mirror of what I used to be
Lost in reflections
Circles that increase
Under the lake
There is another lake
A sun that died but has no end
Under the lake
We go by ancient names
Under the lake
There is another lake
