Crimson Veil present multi-faceted third single 'Shift', alongside a music video • GRIMM Gent

CRIMSON VEIL continue to captivate the music community with their unique take on alternative metal, releasing their new music video ‘Shift’. This single is likely the catchiest tune from “Hex,” the debut album of the UK-based band, set to take the world by storm on September 20, 2024 via Reigning Phoenix Music (RPM). ‘Shift’ is a dark and catchy song that will appeal to any rock or metal fan. The music builds gradually incorporating Eastern scales into a bass groove, drawing listeners deeper into Mishkin‘s spell. The lyrics serve as a chilling warning to those who might cross her path, with lines like, “I’ll be the secret that talks…I’ll be the hammer that falls.” The song culminates in a MESHUGGAH-esque riff in 15/8, which, despite its complexity, is surprisingly easy to headbang to. The final chorus and end riff deliver powerfully, making the track both intense and enjoyable.

“‘Shift’ is a favourite to play live because it’s so damn catchy, it sucks you in like an evil spell and has you singing the chorus mantra before you know it,” adds vocalist Mishkin Fitzgerald.

Creating unique, sinister soundscapes, the UK based outfit ingeniously combines elements of rock, metal and cinematic music while lyrically covering esoteric topics, accompanied by dark visual aesthetics. The four talented multi-instrumentalists originally come from different band projects and bring an impressive touring history across the UK, the US and Mexico. They have worked with music industry greats such as Paul Reeve (MUSE etc.) and John Fryer (DEPECHE MODE, NINE INCH NAILS) in the past.
