• Personnel: Finn Andrews (vocals, guitar); Dan Raishbrook (guitar); Eric Gorfain (violin); Henning Dietz (drums, percussion); Natalie Wilde (background vocals).

• Photographer: Richard Harvey .
• For the Veils second studio outing, NUX VOMICA, fiery frontman Finn Andrews, the son of Barry Andrews (XTC, Shriekback) assembled an entirely new backing band. The resulting album is far more accomplished then its predecessor, THE RUNAWAY FOUND, and features stark, urgent, and intense songs that justifiably warrant comparisons to Nick Cave and Jeff Buckley, as evinced on the wound-up "Not Yet" and the howling "Jesus for the Jugular."

Professional Reviews: Magnet (p.111) - "[U]sing loud/soft/loud in tandem with the singing to underline every emotion a la Nick Cave....Those up to the challenge of a messier, darker Veils will find a few payoffs..."
