The Veils, already very successful in Italy and Holland, aren't part of any "scene", though surely the magic and troubled majesty of Nux Vomica, their latest album released in April 2007, will prove impossible to ignore for Britain and America. " Something within me bucks against the idea of being even remotely fashionable. Everyone's always complaining about the banality of British music these days - and yet if you don't go along with it, things are pretty difficult. It's a Catch 22 that ruins a lot of music.” Finn Andrews says.
With Nux Vomica, The Veils draw back the curtain, release the foxes, and bring new breath to the genre. Finn states "If the first album was about my effect on myself, I suppose this one's more about the world's effect on us all."
It's a killer remedy, The Veils will make the stars in the night sky and crowds applaud at Osheaga on September 8th.
