"By Moonlight And Stars" packs quite a bit of density into 26 minutes of debut grit. There is no shortage of mind-bending odd time grooves, as well as big strait ahead riffs, cozy atmospheres, and some ice cold landscapes as well. Lyrically, the album touches on healing, hope, narcissism, ego, destruction, the shadow dimension, and gratitude. This Vessel was conceived as a solo project by Kyle Mayer. But in taking on a name all it's own, it has grown to include two incredible guest talents on vocals. Kalen Chase (Korn, Vimic, Solo Artist) and Paul Bellantoni (Wilton Drive, Solo Artist) took songs to the next level with their highly developed vocal skill and lyrical mastery. "I couldn't be more proud of this record. It has been a dream and goal of mine to release a proper solo album for a long time now. And I am thrilled to have 'By Moonlight And Stars' be the foundation of this ongoing creative endeavor."

2 Piece Painting/CD/Stick Bundle
Created in the same style of Acrylic Pouring that I use to paint drumheads, I got lucky with these 2 paintings. This Dragon Fireball Ethos landscape came together by a little skill and a lot of chance. And I just think these 2 paintings should live together and they were made back to back. And of course this bundle included a CD of "By Moonlight And Stars" and a signed played drumstick as well!

All music written and performed by Kyle Mayer
This Vessel is my solo project. My name is Kyle Mayer and I play drums in September Mourning. This is a place where I can
indulge my unending impulse for prog-metal. "By Moonlight And Stars" speaks of healing, hope, narcissism, self-destruction, the shadow dimension, and gratitude. Thank you for checking out this page and I hope the music embodies the journey that it has been creating it!...more
