HEXVESSEL unveil a beautiful visualiser for ‘Mother Destroyer’ as the final advance single taken from the forthcoming new album Nocturne. The seventh full-length of the enigmatic black metal shapeshifters from Finland has been chalked up for release on June 13, 2025.
HEXVESSEL comment: “The song ‘Mother Destroyer’ is about cosmic fatalism, ecological grief, and reverence for a primal feminine force”, singer and songwriter Mat “Kvohst” McNerney reveals. “It is a hymn to the sacred and desecrated goddess. The Earth as origin and oblivion, womb and grave. In the heart of every star there is a darkness.”

With their seventh full-length Nocturne, HEXVESSEL explore the liminal spaces between light and darkness, nature and solitude on an epic album. The ever evolving and shifting Finnish band has reawakened their treasured roots in folk music and psychedelic rock as they artfully weave acoustic interludes, cosmic synths, and spectral piano into the frost-spun threads on their black metal loom.
