It is a tale of the different stages the mind can pass through when experiencing both; from the peaks of self-empowerment to the lows of existential dread, The Somnifer weaves together the mental health struggles that both trauma and sleep can play on the human condition.
To achieve this, Vessel reach for inspiration to manifest a new three-act structure, from the drama of classic doom from Candlemass and Cathedral, the cosmic explorations of psych heavyweights such as All Them Witches and King Buffalo, the aggression of the hardcore and crossover scenes, with the journey of the classic heavy metal instrumentals we all grew up with. Once again, Vessel have reached out to friends and favourites from the scene and beyond to contribute to their art, with guest appearances from Neal Stein (El Supremo, ex-Egypt), Andy Shardlow (Josiah), D.Lolli (Mama Doom), Ceridwen McCooey

We're honoured to premiere the new single EAT THE DAY from the upcoming new album THE SOMINFER which is due for release on November 01st 2024.
"You wake, feeling like you could take on the world, and step out into the day to make it bend to your will. But is this unusual sense of power and control just a subterfuge of self? What is even real? Does it even matter? Vessel Eat the Day with their second single from new album The Somnifer, through blood pumping desert heat riffs and earth pounding drums that sync to the sound of your feet hitting the pavement as you run towards the future you crave, even if it is only in your dreams."
Majestic Mountain Records say this about working with VESSEL again.
"We are thrilled to once again work with one of our original signees! Vessel has produced yet another exceptional album that is certain to impress you!"
