Having created arguably one the finest electronic albums of 2015, Leeds five-piece Vessels have signed a long-term record deal with Different Recordings. Dilate, the band’s third album, dispensed with the guitar driven post-rock foundations that defined their earlier work in exchange for a lean, techno-inflected pulse resulting in a stunning opus that had the critics lauding with hyperbole.

Described as reminiscent of the gentle ebb and flow of Jon Hopkins, Dilate successfully encompasses the band’s love for electronic music and emotive soundscapes. As a live entity, Vessels have proven an unholy communion, maintaining the crystalline melodies and crushing dynamics of their post-rock past and translating their intricate and euphoric studio creations to the live arena.
