Behind The Veil
There has been a very interesting noise emanating from The Wall located within the depths of Leichardt’s Bald Faced Stag as of late. It is the sound of hard working, underground bands doing what they do best - playing music from the heart. One of these underground gems has being shining through with quite some intensity as of late, a band by the name of THE VEIL.
After countless performances sharing the stage with many local greats such as KATABASIS, REVEREND KRISS HADES, BEASTIANITY to name but a few but also recently with French metal band ALCEST, THE VEIL has been refining their sound and working their way up to finally release their debut album Ghosts of Memory. Sludge Factory’s Gary Grim spoke to the bands founder, guitarist and vocalist Che deBoehmler about the new album and what it has taken to make it to this point.

Review by Brian Fischer-Giffin
It seemed way too early to even be at show with the sun having barely set but The Veil already had a decent and appreciative crowd when they unfurled a brand new song to open proceedings this evening.

As prepared as I could be for the strange mix of sounds I was about to witness, I entered the dark and increasingly familiar surrounds of The Wall within the Bald Faced Stag. Kicking the night off would be hard rock goths THE VEIL, followed by raw black metallers PESTILENTIAL SHADOWS. Top it all off with the strange Melbournite instrumentalists that are making waves in the Australian scene, HEIRS, and the headliners of the night, all the way from France, the peculiar ALCEST. Interesting times lay ahead.
