Okubo says both DGD and Veil of Maya have been friends for a while, so a tour was imminent. In March, they tour Europe with American post-hardcore band Dance Gavin Dance. They’re a band that’s toured with quite a range of heavy-hitters””from death metal veterans Cannibal Corpse to U.K.’s mainstream rock/metal band Asking Alexandria. Over the years, Veil of Maya have gone from deathcore to metalcore and djent influences, before finally settling on a happy, crushing amalgam of modern metal, best heard on Matriarch and False Idol. Okubo, however, says, “I’m trying to create a live experience for people who are maybe not even into metal and can start to understand (our music).” Their most recent albums”” Matriarch (2015) and False Idol (2017)””featured clean vocals for the first time, which is one way to elicit a few groans from metalheads. Since 2004, with every one of their six albums, Veil of Maya have stayed away from gimmicks and stayed true to their strength of songwriting and crafting an album.
