Released on November 7th, 2025, Shatter & Bloom is Stellvris’ explosive new EP, blending raw emotion, melody, and heaviness into a powerful statement of modern metal strength.

Since forming in 2019, the European metal outfit have built their brand around honesty and emotional depth, exploring pain but also how to turn that pain into power. Here on their new EP, Shatter & Bloom, they deliver their most intense statement yet.

We loved it. Describing it as:

A high-energy, intense, and creative record. When you pack so many ideas, components, and genre switches into a release — and even within individual songs — there’s always a risk of losing some listeners. But Stellvris manage to strike a balance, especially between the electronic elements and the more traditional instrumentation. What’s clear is that this band has real talent: powerful rhythm work, strong guitar and bass tones, and a remarkably versatile vocalist. They know how to use those strengths intelligently, and the crisp production ensures every detail shines through. The result is a modern, ambitious, and fiercely engaging release from a band that looks set to achieve huge things.
