Album Review: The Veils - Total Depravity

With frontman Finn Andrews announced as part of David Lynch's Twin Peaks reboot, The Veils' profile seems destined to rise.

Andrews' whisper-to-scream emotionalism fits well with Lynch's waking bad dreams, with their fifth album again showing the range of what this sometimes utterly visceral band can deliver. With perhaps unlikely input from Run The Jewels' El-P, they go from the discordant grate of Axolotl, via Low Lays The Devil's rolling organ - somewhere on a line between The Drones and Bad Seeds - to the troubled croon of Iodine & Iron. Add titles like Do Your Bones Glow At Night? and again The Veils bleed, howl, and ache - as few do so well.
