π₯ NEW RELEASE: Deep Inside β The Album & The Story That Started a Revolution π₯
Posted by Eli Thorne | May 30, 2025
After years in the furnace, weβve finally opened the gates. The Velvet Pyres are proud to announce the official release of our newest concept album, Deep Inside β a heavy, haunting, and cinematic plunge into a world of smoke, steel, rebellion, and redemption.
πΆ The Album
Deep Inside isn’t just music β it’s a full sensory plunge into the world of Lydia, Alek, and the city built on suffering and secrets. With songs forged in molten riffs, laced with orchestral intensity, and driven by raw emotion, this album is our most ambitious yet. Itβs gothic groove metal meets baroque doom meets revolution soundtrack. Think fire. Think steel. Think sorrow you can scream along with.
π§ Available now on:
- Spotify
- Apple Music
- Amazon Music
- Bandcamp
- And all major streaming platforms

π The Story
We didnβt stop at sound. Alongside the album, weβve dropped a FREE companion short story PDF that dives even deeper into the tale behind the tracks. Written by the band with author Graham McMurtry of ArJo Publishing, and produced by Riffuge Studio Productions, this gritty, emotional steampunk saga brings the lyrics to life in brutal, beautiful detail.
The PDF includes:
- All 12 chapters of the Deep Inside narrative
- Album artwork and design by ArJo & Riffuge
- Bonus lore and character details
- A hidden message from Lydia herself…
Download it now for FREE on VelvetPyres.com/deepinside or grab a physical deluxe edition when you catch us on tour.

This album hit me right in the soulβabsolutely incredible. The fusion of story and sound is haunting and beautiful. I couldn’t stop reading the PDF once I started, and the music carried me the whole way through. The Pyres outdid themselves. Please do a live reading + show sometime soon.π₯π₯
