The way Midday Veil swirl subtle layering effects together to recreate distorted states of consciousness goes hand-in-hand with their modus operandi of consciousness expansion. My favorite part is when it focuses on David Golightly playing the keys and you get the classic LSD chemtrail effect — or when there’s a bunch of freaky keyboard noise, and then I realize it’s actually Tim Mason, the guitar player. Or the part where Emily smiles at the camera and her image kind of dissipates into the ether. It’s all pretty fun, but more than anything gives a teaser for their new album which I’m sure will be even more potently psych-tastic.
