Coming from San Francisco's distinctive music scene, Veil Veil Vanish has played sold out shows with A Place to Bury Strangers, No Age, Holy Fuck, Celebration, and 1990's (UK).
Following a US tour in support of their critically acclaimed EP 'Into a New Mausoleum', Veil Veil Vanish received national radio play including stations such as Live 105 and Indie 103 and played San Francisco's NOISE POP music festival in both 2008 and 2009.
In Fall 2008, Veil Veil Vanish was featured on the Cure tribute album 'Perfect As Cats' on Manimal Vinyl Records along with Bat For Lashes, Dandy Warhols, and The Muslims (The Soft Pack).
Veil Veil Vanish has just finished recording their debut full-length album, 'Change in the Neon Light', with producer/engineer ATOM who has recently engineered the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Cribs, and Maximo Park along with producer Nick Launay. The album is slated for release in early 2010.
Most recently, Veil Veil Vanish was invited to and played a showcase at CMJ in NYC.
“Veil Veil Vanish is the darkest gem in the treasure chest of San Francisco's indie scene.” -NOISE POP Music Festival
“The most creative guitarists on the planet, using pedals and gadgets to build sonic structures that could make Phil Spector cream.” - SF Weekly
Veil Veil Vanish "combines dark, blissed out atmospherics, danceable drums and high-rise choruses turning these alluring soundscapes into seductive pop gems." – Zero Magazine
“Veil Veil Vanish’s debut EP is a salient discharge of swirling, kinetic atmospheres punctured by deep bass lines and urgent, brusque guitars that brush against soft backdrops, threatening to tear them all down.” –Exclaim!
"The EP, which has been described as a “seductive pop gem,” has already stirred the airwaves with its dance beats and high-rise choruses, and as one critic described “contains more musical anguish than The Cure.”

"What the Cure's Pornography would have sounded like if Neil Halstead (Slowdive) and Kevin Shields (My Bloody Valentine) were on guitars"
Andru - Post-Punk.Com
"There is a great desolation in Veil Veil Vanish, and what small glow does manage to pierce the gloom is sunless, more like the nimbus of a total eclipse than any kind of rational daylight."
West Coast Performer Magazine
"....Steeped in the darker corners of ’80s post-punk adherents, Veil Veil Vanish build brilliantly fevered songs that seduce with their lush, damaged anti-pop fixations."
Exclaim! Canadas Music Authority
"Into a New Mausoleum shows Veil Veil Vanish to be in thrall to the guitar sounds of the 80s underground. The San Francisco quartet has the vaguely gothic psychedelia of the Cure, Echo & the Bunnymen and the Chameleons down on these six tunes...."
