With Sun Falling , Veil of Thorns open up a new realm of their Necrofuturist art. Sun falling, tides rising to meet it and glaciers recoiling and withdrawing between them. The deadzones begin to boil. We have had years to watch it coming, narrowing our consciousness to carry on without having to acknowledge it. We breathe in the thickening, increasingly hot air, our last before we need to exchange currency for each inhalation and a tax for each exhalation. One additional breath may be stolen as the extensive structures built with such industriousness and passion melt and burn, terminating in a laugh greeting a return to the stars from whose dust we were formed. Sun Falling is a journey of vision across the globe for one last time, finally to return home to celebrate the life that happened while casting an inward gaze deep into the unknown. Everything passes, even planets and solar systems, and anything that manages to emerge and evolve for any amount of time is a miracle. released June 7, 2015 P. Emerson Williams – guitars, Bass, Vocals, Sound Design Jarboe – Vocals, Sound Design Pandora – Drums, Percussion About Veil of Thorns Veil of Thorns is an ever evolving concept born of the fevered brain of P. Emerson Williams. Among the growing list of collaborators one can find authors, actors and musicians of many genres, reflecting the scope of what P. Emerson Williams calls Necrofuturist art. http://www.veilofthorns.com About Jarboe Jarboe draws from a variety of sources: childhood in the Mississippi delta, New Orleans street life and Mardi Gras, NYC’s east village during the post no-wave scene, university studies in literature and theatre, a personal history of recordings, collaborations, performance (clubs, theaters, art galleries, cathedrals, festivals, live radio, television, film). Jarboe’s voice and music can be at turns both playful and vitriolic – in melodic as well as experimental compositions. Over the course of her life through efforts in both past and present disciplines, Jarboe journeys towards rebuilding / reinventing identity and exploring the elemental structures of persona. http://www.thelivingjarboe.com ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pRxE5NxRr0

https://digital.panicmachine.com/album/birthed We are Intransigent, insouciant umbilical noose Writhing in my grave, all my Demons let loose Unearthly endeavours in seething death flight All alone on the pavement, vile dreams to incite And blown on the winds taunting chill The rabid elementals moving me towards the hollow hills A stumbling golem let loose in the pallid, Dancing moonlight; the frost rips me like talons. And the grave, the long, cold sleep, the end It does not want me, but to live, Hades forefend The raging howl into the cold vast night rises Raises from sepulchers living souls in slumbering guises Aum-Ha, Aum-Ha! Hot pulse and fiery breath We are, yes, we are. )+( )+( )+( )+( Within the tracks on "Birthed", a CD by Veil Of Thorns, you can hear parallels to industrial bands such as Pig, Razed in Black and Nine Inch Nails and, more often than not, you can hear the pure creativity of P. Emerson Williams. Anything created by this man, the brain behind Choronzon (black metal tinged with experimental, ambient and industrial edges) , you would expect to be eclectic and creative. It's his trademark. Herein you'll encounter thick, pummeling, distorted spears of electro/guitar industrial, D&B, goth, dirgey slow industrial moodiness, etc., etc., etc., etc., in fact, etcetera ad infinitum. What's persistent in Williams' smooth, creative and original fusion of various elements is the sustained tone and mood, like that of a soul resigned to nihilistic fate. None of Emerson's creations are quite like anything else, even when you're hearing touches of something else in there. His fierce originality score another point for the underground.
