Meridian Veil, the project featuring guitarist Danny Marino (ex-The Agonist), vocalist Matt McGachy (Cryptopsy), drummer Dylan Gowan (Seven Spires), and cellist Raphael Weinroth-Browne (Leprous [live]), have signed with Season Of Mist. The label will handle the release of their debut album.
Marino said the following:
“We are very happy to sign with Season of Mist. When Matt and I first met during the early 2000s, we wanted to make music together. From the beginning, the idea was for Meridian Veil to be deeply emotional. Even though our upcoming debut album gets heavy, there’s a deep longing that runs through the cautionary tale at its core.”
McGachy continued:
“I remember going home and feeling super excited. Singing in this band is freeing for me. I’m happy to show that side of myself.”
Gowan also commented:
“When you have a band that involves writers from different styles, you get something really unique. Meridian Veil is progressive metal with a very dark atmosphere and thought-provoking lyrics.”
Weinroth-Browne added:
“Upon hearing the demos for our upcoming album, I was struck by the quality of the songwriting. I believe Meridian Veil captures the best aspects of 2000’s death metal and prog metal with a distinctly modern approach.”
