    Just got the Veils album Nux Vomica. Its brilliant. Similar to Arcade Fire, I suppose, but a bit of a mix of genres Indie, Britpop, metal. Never heard of them before a few days ago, think there from New Zealand. Anyone else listen to them?:confused:

    Heres the 1st single from Nux Vomica.

    Have one album. "The Runaway Found". Can't say it's anything special at all. One song on it I quite like. Rest are meh. Possibly would like them more if the first thing I had heard about them wasn't comparing them to Interpol. Hard to live up to that.

    yeah, very good band. Based in the UK but from NZ as mentioned. If you want a listen go to Filter magazine site and they have a free mp3 up here:

    Nux Vomica is way better. They disbanded after The Runaway Found and the leadsinger reformed with new bandmembers.Nux Vomica is 1 of the best albums I heard last year! They couldnt be less like Interpol(also great) either. Not enough media coverage on The Veils.
