Veil Of Maya - new album on Sumerian Records
"It was like making a movie or a series", adds Marc. "Lukas had a storyboard in mind from the beginning; it's like composing the soundtrack." "Working in two separate studios at the same time was a new approach for us", says Marc. "Before, we used to record all the instruments so that Lukas could absorb them. This time, we were composing with his voice in mind. Another novelty is that he wrote everything on the spot, right now. It brings a whole new energy. Max was also very important in the process." "And for good reason: each element is now amplified. Veil of Maya's music is heavier, more hypnotic, more powerful. The sound of this album is also darker", says Lukas. "With this story, our attitude is more grim; it's something nobody really expected." The first single,"Overthrow", could well be the new favourite track of all the fans of the band, which raises its level a little more: "He has a bit of' Mikasa' in him", smiled Marc. "We figured it wouldn't hurt!" "However, we wanted to create something new", says Lukas. "We don't recycle old recipes. It's a fresh start."
