Background notes

Archive material and source history

The Black Veils formed in Los Angeles around 2001. Their early sound had a raw, emotive quality that drew from goth rock and post-punk. The song "A Prayer" became a notable single for them, with lyrics that spoke to feelings of being lost and broken. It helped bring attention to their debut album, "We Stilettos Are Black," which arrived in 2003.

Their music often explores darker, introspective themes. Tracks like "Army Of Illusion (Pt. I)" and "Dealing With Demons" reflect this tendency. The band's lineup has included vocalist Craig Mabbitt, guitarist Jake Pitts, and bassist Lonny Eagleton as consistent members, with drummers like Steven Stiletto and Christian Coma appearing on different recordings.

They released several albums after their debut, including "The Devil Fell in Love with Me" in 2005 and "Wonders of the Younger" in 2018. While their work has faced some criticism for its dark subject matter, the band has described it as an attempt to reflect complex human experiences rather than glorify negativity.
