New Veil of Maya Album To Be Released May 12th

It’s a good day to be a fan of tech/djent, as not only did genre legends Sikth announce a new EP and tour, but now new school of djent powerhouses Veil of Maya have a release date for their new album Matriarch. The album is to be released by Sumerian Records on Tuesday, May 12th.

The album features the debut of new vocalist Lukas Magyar, who controversially has added his clean vocals into the mix, much to the chagrin of purist IMNs and whiny “fans.” Be sure to get your fill of faith-in-humanity-destroying comments in the video below, and prepare the ointment:
