London-based gloom merchants The Veils are shaping up to take their sound to the uninitiated in the second half of 2016.
Firstly, they have a new album due August 26 called Total Depravity, which was produced by the “only in your wildest dreams” production collaboration of Adam Greenspan (Nick Cave, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Arcade Fire) and El-P (Run the Jewels). In addition to featuring a sweet production crew, front man Finn Andrew also says of Total Depravity: “L. Ron Hubbard, Axolotls of course, kind natured crocodiles, a psychotic truck driver, The Pope and Ingrid Bergman all get a look in.”
Andrews will also be plying his trade in the upcoming Twin Peaks reboot, because let’s face it, The Veils and David Lynch were totally going to hook up one day.
The Veils will be announcing tour dates in the coming weeks, but in the meantime, check out lead single “Axolotl” here:
