Early times
Formed in 2014 out of the absurd encounter of Alessandro Criscitiello (AKA gregorsamsaestmort), Filippo Scalzo (Caron Dimonio) and Mario d’Anelli (European Ghost), The Black Veils joyfully write angry and miserable post-punk songs while based in Bologna, Italy.
In ten years of existence, The Black Veils have released three albums: the self-produced bleak-romantic Blossom (2015), the shoegaze-y Dealing with Demons (Atmosphere Records, 2017) and the hard-hitting post-punk album Carnage (Icy Cold Records, 2021).
Last years
Between 2015 and 2024 The Black Veils kept on touring through Europe (Italy, France, Germany, Bosnia…), sharing the stage with Drab Majesty or good friends like The Foreign Resort, Je t’aime, Geometric Vision, never missing a chance to be inspired by new encounters and incidents, always writing new songs on and off the road.
NOW
GASLIGHT, their 4th and brand new studio album, is going to be out on their beloved independent French label Icy Cold Records next autumn. Not a departure from their straight-to-the-point post-punk sound, but a strong electronic turn filled with black humour, cinema imaginary and highly danceable tunes. Your funeral party is served!
The 1st single, Gaslight! is out on Valentine’s Day (Feb. 14th, 2025).
