the veils

The Veils (formed in 2002) are a New Zealand band based in London, fronted by Finn Andrews. Their sound has been compared to artists as diverse as Jeff Buckley,The Birthday Party, The Smiths, and Joy Division. Their live shows have become famed for their emotional intensity and Finn’s often scarily possessed stage presence.

They released their debut album,
The Runaway Found, in Spain late in 2003. The first single from the album, Lavinia, was released through Rough Trade on November 24, 2003. They released the album globally in January 2004 with a different track listing. It went gold worldwide the following year.


My Rating: ★★★★

The same one of my mom's friends who showed me The Teeth showed me this band (she has really good taste in music)

Apparently their debut record is GREAT but I have yet to hear it so I don't have anything to say about it.

This album is pretty damn good, not amazing but some decent stuff.

I am obsessed with this song right now. So listen to it.



Also check out the song "It Hits Deep."
