about

Fifth Veil channels a rugged mysticism. The band creates surprising sonic worlds, deriving heavy riffs from the rhythms of Turkish folk music, weaving tight-knit vocal harmonies, and raising towering ridges of post-rock. The voice of lead singer John Boggs is a lantern - follow it as a guide through dark wastelands, narrow canyons, and snowy mountain passes.

Fifth Veil was formed in Boulder, Colorado in 2009, spent 2009-2011 in the Hudson Valley of New York, and has now returned to Colorado. These locations, and the resulting tension of wilderness vs. metropolis, continually influence the band - Fifth Veil celebrates and yearns for the vast, arid landscapes of the Inter-Mountain West while thriving off of the bottled energy and grit of the urban East Coast.
