We've been tracking the progress of visionary San Francisco quintet Veil Veil Vanish throughout the year, starting with the release of their full-length debut Change in the Neon Light (reviewed here at BLURT). Our man on the ground, Gil Macias, also corralled the band during the making of their first music video, for the song "Anthem For a Doomed Youth," and over the course of a couple of lengthy interviews (read them here and also here) Macias was able to get the band to really open up and delve deeply into their influences, motivations and more.

The aforementioned video is done and ready for viewing, and we're pretty happy to present it to you, below. "Anthem For a Doomed Youth" is    and the film was directed by Justin Coloma (Smashing Pumpkins, Eagles of Death Metal, Boomkat, etc.; you can learn more about him at this link).
