Film At 11: The Veils

MAGNET faves the Veils just digitally issued Troubles Of The Brain (Pitch Beast), the England/New Zealand quartet’s first EP and the follow-up to 2009’s excellent Sun Gangs full-length. The Bernard Butler-produced EP’s first video is “The Stars Came Out Once The Lights Went Out,” which was shot in Auckland by director Alexander Gandar. Says Veils frontman Finn Andrews of the clip, “You know when you have a really lousy day and you look at the stars and they’re kind of reassuring and terrifying at the same time? We just thought it was funny to imagine that maybe stars go through the same thing, too, but in reverse. It’s basically a mini interstellar soap opera but with more wanking.”
