I think the advertisement for the Michael Stipe interview that keeps popping up on this site subconsciously influenced me to post this cover of "Drive" by the Veils.
I really like it but nothing could come close to the original R.E.M. version.
The video for their song "Advice for Young Mothers To Be" is also nice/ I don't think they like babies very much though.... MORE

Ever get an album...like it, then for whatever reason totally but it on the backburner? I think, in my defense, I found the Veils and this cd 'Nux Vomica' when I was in the midst of an amazing music acquisition spree...
Anyway, thanks to the strange and mysterious power of 'the shuffle' I have spent all day with this record...incredible! This tune came on and I haven't looked back for hours...... MORE

What is up with foreign fondness for Bruce Springsteen's "State Trooper"? You know how few shows I go to these days (that's very few, if you don't know) and I've recently seen two artists (Jarvis Cocker and tonight the Veils) cover this song. I kind of don't get it. It's very dark and spooky, yes, and both did a good job — I'm certainly not one to argue with any well-earned Springsteen appreciation, but I feel like it's become too obvious, that song. Especially now. Ban... MORE

Can I just mention that Finn Andrews of The Veils has the sexiest voice I've yet to hear. I get hot flashes when I here his sexy scratchy croon on the track Jesus for the Jugular off of Nux Vomica.
And if I were into ladies, Feist would be my number one gal.... MORE

I thought it was time I started promoting music from New Zealand. Not much of our music makes it to the mainstream in North America or Europe but we have some kick ass artists that really should be much more famous than they are.
You may have heard of these guys already but I thought I’d start things off with one of my favs, The Veils.
The Veils are based in London but have their roots in NZ. They have two albums, The Runway Found, released in 2004 and Nux Vomica, r... MORE

They sound like a cross between OASIS and COLDPLAY... maybe 2/3 Oasis and 1/3 Coldpay = The Veils. Very cool album... haven't been able to find the new one.
