In less than a year of releasing “Longing for Triumph, Reeking of Tragedy”, Veilburner are back to announce their ninth album, “All that Glimmers is Gloam”, to be released via Transcending Obscurity Records.

The tone of this album signals that tragedy reeks more than triumph is longed, where every pursuit becomes a maze leading toward another dissolution. Ruin stands as a foundation that no longer supports awakening – it merely reflects the forms that once gave it meaning.

“All that Glimmers is Gloam” puts the listener as judge and jury, bearing witness to a deposition of spiraling madness – a testimony mired in the bog of counterfeit gnosis, orchestrated amid Mephisto’s instrumental haunts of melodic dissonance and Chrisom’s séanced howls, each reverberating through a theatre of fracturing sanity.

The labyrinth reveals itself as a scaffold of golem-like perception; knowledge fractures into paradox, and identity disperses into indistinguishable voices. Here, what glimmers is not illumination, but twilight; not revelation, but its reflection. Standing before the final threshold, the mirror of the self shatters, revealing the shape of many within the silhouette of none.

The album cover artwork was crafted by Luciana Nedelea. Here is what the band says about the art: “Veilburner have once again joined forces with Luciana Nedelea, who has masterfully realized the cover artwork for All that Glimmers is Gloam, the ninth iteration of their ongoing exploration of the consequences born of the Curse and Cause that reside between the blurred lines of the esoteric and the psychologically absurd. Rather than illustrating a predetermined composition, Luciana immersed herself in the music and lyrics, creating an entirely original piece through her own artistic interpretation. We couldn’t be happier with how beautifully she has brought our world to life.”

Few days ahead of the pre-orders launch, the band reveals the piece “Vitriolic Hiss”. Listen  below:
