The Kennedy Veil Seeking New Vocalist

Sacramento, CA's death metal unit The Kennedy Veil (Unique Leader Records) is currently searching for a new vocalist. The Kennedy Veil is preparing to enter the studio to begin recording a debut album for Unique Leader, with the touring cycle kicking off in Spring/Summer 2013. The following statement from the band covers what is expected from everyone who sends in a video audition:

"We are a professional band, and anybody trying out must present themselves in a professional manner. We are looking for someone dedicated to what we are doing and who is willing and able to contribute to the band and help out with any and all expenses that may come out of pocket. This means you must have a job (or some sort of income) and transportation/drivers license and passport are also must. If you are not willing or unable to tour, then please don't waste anyone's time. Also, NO hard drug users/addicts and no criminal history. This is not negotiable. We don't need anyone with travel restrictions or inability to give 110% every night.

"We need a solid frontman with a commanding stage presence and ability to interact well with a crowd. If you are dedicated and ready to move to the next level with TKV and begin the touring cycles, submit covers of 'Disciples of Dead Aeons' and 'Genesis Lamentations' to thekennedyveil@gmail.com."

The Kennedy Veil Signs To Unique Leader

Unique Leader Records has issued the following announcement about signing a deal with The Kennedy Veil:

"Extreme metal trends are about to receive a much needed kick to the throat, courtesy of Sacramento, CA's modern death metal titans, The Kennedy Veil. Avoiding the used, abused and predictable hat tricks that have plagued the extreme metal underground for the last several years, The Kennedy Veil have successfully managed to carve their own path in spite of it. Taking influence from pioneers like Deicide, Morbid Angel and Suffocation coupled with the more refined aggression of bands like Origin, Psycroptic and Decapitated, the end result is exactly what TKV intended.

"No throwbacks, no breakdowns, no wanking, no trends. Just their own brand of straight forward crushing modern death metal, which they are extremely proud bring to the table of their new label home, Unique Leader Records.

"The band's self released full length, 'The Sentence of Their Conqueror', gave you an idea of what The Kennedy Veil is capable of, and the recently released single, 'Disciples of Dead Aeons', allows an even better glimpse into the band's trend killing sonic evolution. But nothing will fully prepare you for what they are set to unleash with their forthcoming label debut. With Unique Leader as the catalyst, humanity is about to be reduced to ashes!"

Vocalist Cody Walker had the following to say about signing with Unique Leader: "We are extremely excited to be on such a prestigious label with a roster steeped in a history that we, as a band and as individuals, have loved and respected for many years. It was stated and agreed upon early on as a band, that if we could hand pick a label suited for us, it would be
Unique Leader. Brutal is as Brutal does."
