First off, let’s get this straight…Veil of Maya was never a six piece (so much for Wikipedia). Based out of Chicago, VoM is known for pounding the road to ply their wares and entertain audiences with their mix of progressive metal, melodic death metal, thrash and hardcore. On December 11, 2012 Veil of Maya tread into Pittsburgh territory to hit up the Ironworks stage in the South Oakland area of the city. Playing to a packed house, the band played a brutal set that was pure energy and emotion. Hitting up tunes from their latest release ‘Eclipse’, as well as ‘Id’, ‘All Things Set Aside’ and ‘The Common Man’s Collapse’, the crowd could not get enough and begged for more chanting, “one more song, one more song”. The creative force, guitar player, and songwriter behind the band, Marc Okubo invited us onto their tour bus for an interview that reveals some of what is happening in the world of Veil of Maya. Pittsburgh Music Magazine can’t say enough how awesome all the guys (Marc, Brandon, Danny, and Sam) were by hosting us the entire evening and giving us exclusive access to their world. We would tell you all the juicy details, but then we’d have to kill ya’. So, you will just have to settle for our little interview instead…
