Vessel's humming here instantly made me think of the beginning of Dir en grey's Vinushka. A bit of a niche topic, but I generally sometimes compare Sleep Token to Dir en grey and Vessel to Kyo. Not because they sound particularly similar but bc they're both experimental bands with pretty unique vocalists and songwriting. They have a similar way to get you truly hooked and moved by music, at least for me.
