After teasing it over the weekend, Sumerian Records’ own metal veterans Veil Of Maya have unleashed a new song, “Outsider”. The song, which is notably longer than most of their songs at just over four minutes, displays furious fretwork and an awfully impressive performance by drummer Sam Applebaum, who remains rather underrated. That doesn’t even begin to cover the infectious vocal performance of Lukas Magyar, who’s really coming into his own behind the mic.
While it’s unknown if the new song is off a new record, it seems that it likely is, considering the band was in the studio with producer Taylor Larson (Periphery, Vespera) just last year. Regardless, “Outsider” is a compelling listen, whether it’s a standout standalone single, or something off the band’s upcoming album. Considering the band continues to grow in stature, we can only hope for the latter.
