Speaking about the track, the band said:
“‘Shatter and Bloom’ is both a reflection and a statement — it speaks about people who dream big but refuse to change themselves, expecting everything to fall into place without effort. At the same time, it’s about breaking what no longer works, burning down what’s rotten, and allowing something new, stronger, and more authentic to grow in its place.”
Speaking about the EP, which was produced in collaboration with Christoph Wieczorek of Sawdust Recordings, the band stated:
“Lyrically, the EP is deeply emotional and unflinchingly honest, confronting themes of brokenness, anger, betrayal, and healing. Musically, it pushes our sound further than ever — blending modern metalcore and nu-metal influences with electronic textures, massive choruses, and bone-crushing breakdowns. Each song carries its own unique flavour, but together, “Shatter & Bloom” is about destruction, rebirth, and the power of transformation.”

Founded in 2019, Stellvris are a European metal band with a mission: to turn pain into power. Their music speaks to those battling anxiety, toxic relationships, bullying, and the weight of everyday struggles. Every riff, scream, and soaring chorus carries a message of strength, courage, and connection — a reminder that no one has to fight alone, and that anyone can rise to their respective moments.
Their debut releases, Upside Down in 2022, and Persistence in 2023, introduced a sound that blends crushing heaviness with haunting melodies, winning the band a devoted following across Europe and the UK. Songs quickly became anthems for fans who saw their own stories reflected in the music. Stellvris are not just a band to listen to — they are a band to experience.
Their live shows erupt with unstoppable energy, drawing in both seasoned metal fans and people who never thought they’d find themselves at a metal show. That connection has carried them to stages alongside Megadeth, Jinjer, The Black Dahlia Murder, The Ghost Inside, and many more. Furthermore, they’ve brought their ferocity to festivals across the continent, including at Summer Breeze, Fallen Fortress, Kave Fest, Brutal Assault, Basinfirefest, Fajtfest and a wide range of others across Europe.
With each song, the band show no fear in addressing the darker sides of society — from mental health to violence and betrayal — and transforming them into music that unites, empowers, and heals. For Stellvris, it’s never just about the sound. It’s about creating a safe space where pain can turn into resilience, and where the silence after violence can be broken by music.
