The Veils Announce New Album Total Depravity, Co-Produced by El-P

The Veils have announced a new album, Total Depravity, the band’s first since 2013’s Time Stays, We Go. The new record is out August 26 via Nettwerk Records. It was co-produced by El-P, Adam “Atom” Greenspan, and Veils frontman Finn Andrews. Check out the tracklist and cover art (by Nicola Samorì) below.

Finn Andrews is one of the many artists who will be in the upcoming reboot of David Lynch’s “Twin Peaks.” Andrews said of the new Veils record:

Over a period of roughly 2 years an album began to take shape. There is a large cast of characters on this record. L. Ron Hubbard, Axolotls of course, kind natured crocodiles, a psychotic truck driver, The Pope and Ingrid Bergman all get a look in. The songs are all stories of various kinds; some experienced firsthand, others fabricated for my own amusement. It’s the first time I’ve ever written songs using mutilated loops and sounds as a starting point, though some of the songs also began on piano and were messed with later.

01 Axolotl
02 A Bit on the Side
03 Low Lays the Devil
04 King of Chrome
05 Swimming With the Crocodiles
06 Here Come the Dead
07 In the Blood
