Debut EP from 2025 by this young Finnish Death Metal band from Helsinki. Formed in 2024 by musicians active in the local underground scene, PLAGUE VESSEL introduces itself with four lengthy tracks built around an exceptionally heavy, dark and oppressive approach, favouring atmosphere and weight over constant speed.
Its sound blends cavernous Death Metal with Doom/ Death elements, creating crushing compositions filled with monolithic riffs, deep growls and a suffocating sense of decay. Recorded in an analog environment, the EP stands out for its immense heaviness and its ability to channel both the filthiest side of old-school Death Metal and the darkest, most funereal corners of the genre.
Recommended for fans of: SPECTRAL VOICE, AUTOPSY, UNDERGANG and CIANIDE.
