  • The Veils Announces New Album “Asphodels”, Shares New Song “The Ladder”

  • New Zealand-based alt-rock band The Veils has announce their upcoming seventh studio album “Asphodels” will be released on January 24, 2025 via V2 Records.


    This marks their first album in two years since the 2023 album “…And Out of the Void Came Love”.
    The album takes its name from the Ancient Greek flower of the Underworld and comprises a 9-track.
    The band recorded the album live to tape over five days at Roundhead Studios in Aotearoa New Zealand, in the spring of 2023.

    The band frontman Finn Andrews said of the album, “I feel as though this album is the end result of a now disconcertingly long career in music. I think after your 7th album, much like turning 40, you should really just stop counting. I've learned a lot along the way, which I suppose is the whole point, and I've really distilled it all into these 9 songs.”

    From the album, the band released a new song “The Ladder” on October 11, 2024.
    The song was inspired by the crazed and mystical paintings of Hieronymus Bosch, who often painted ladders as routes to psychological exploration.
    The track was written and produced by Finn Andrews. The accompanying music video was directed by Tu Neill.
  • Finn Andrews said of the song, “After almost two decades of writing songs exclusively about love and death, it's nice to finally write something about home DIY equipment. This is unfortunately only partially true and it is ultimately, of course, a song about love and death.”

    He continued, “It's about the longing to transcend the relentless chaos of our world, I suppose. But don't let that description get you down, it's also a jaunty little number.”

    He added, “This harks back to all the old records I grew up listening to in my youth, recorded in times before multitrack recording where the band would all be in one room gathered around a single microphone.”
