The wait is finally over! Genre-bending metal powerhouse VEIL OF MAYA have today announced their first new studio album in nearly 6 years. The new album, ‘[m]other‘, will be released on the band’s long-time label, Sumerian Records on May 12th. Pre-orders, with a variety of merch and vinyl bundle options, are available now from veilofmayaband.com
Heralding today’s news is the release of brand new track, “Red Fur” and its epic, futuristic music video.

Speaking on the announcement of the album and the release of the new track, frontman Lukas Magyar shares
“This record is a collection of personal experience, history and a touch of my own imagination. I enjoyed approaching each song in a different way this time around. It was certainly challenging at times to find the right mood but when the work was finally complete it seemed to come together very well. I’m thrilled to see how our fans respond!”
Speaking on his inspiration for writing today’s new single, Veil Of Maya‘s incendiary guitarist and songwriter, Marc Okubo adds
“I got convinced to go to a Rufus Du Sol concert. I was immediately inspired though. The next day, I was like, ’Let’s combine some of this with our style’. That explains the electronic opening.”
