Archive material and source history
Vesen is a Swedish progressive rock band led by vocalist and guitarist Anders Nyström. The group formed after Nyström's previous project, Storm Corrosion, which was a collaboration with Steven Wilson of Porcupine Tree. They took their name from a Swedish word meaning 'being' or 'essence.'
In 2017, Vesen released their debut album 'Absence,' which includes tracks like the title song 'Absence' and 'Finkenhagen.' The album received attention for its atmospheric sound and Nyström's vocal style. The band's music tends toward melancholic moods and intricate arrangements.
Vesen's lineup includes Christoffer Loostrom on drums, Mattias Olsson on bass, and Olov Andersson on keyboards. Their other songs include 'MonuMental,' 'Swastikrist,' and 'Torso Bitch.' In 2018, they postponed a tour due to Nyström having vocal issues, which led to some speculation about the band's future.
