Remove The Veil

Country: United States of America
Genre: Alternative Metal/Southern Metal


Remove the Veil was a Christian metal band from Opelika, Alabama, founded in January 2005. Taking their name from a passage in 2 Corinthians 3:14, Remove the Veil has a purpose to share: "We feel like this is what God wants us to do as a band-reach kids by letting them know that you can be a Christian and still have fun."
Their hard-pounding rhythms and intricate guitar work coupled with solid, driving bass lines provide a platform that compliments the interwoven vocal patterns to create an unmistakable sound.
With their influences ranging from Merle Haggard to Metallica, the band blends a mix of southern rock, metal and hardcore into a genre that blurs the lines between mainstream and underground.
The band was initially a five-piece indie rock band consisting of Hendrix, McCall, Hood, Coxwell, and then-vocalist Michael Sasser, who released an EP in 2005 with 5 songs. In mid-2005 Sasser left to join With Blood Comes Cleansing, and the band decided to put Hendrix on vocals and guitar rather than find a replacement.
The band was signed to Facedown Records in March 2007, and their debut album, Another Way Home, was released in October 2007.
In September 2007, original drummer Mark Coxwell and original bassist Cliff McCall left the band. Shortly thereafter, Travis Hopkins began playing bass, and the band used a fill-in drummer for their November and December tours. In January 2008, Travis Hopkins switched instruments with Pat Hood.
On May 23rd, 2008, the band announced on their Myspace that they were splitting up. Their last show was June 7th, 2008 at the Summer Side Show 6 in Columbus, Georgia.
