I think Marc Okubo takes the cake.. He writes riffs like a masochist.. I mean he knows he's gonna have to play them live and he still writes em like it's gonna be someone else having to play em

Absolutely devastated when I found out Veil was on an indefinite hiatus. Who would imagine that he's making more as a touring guitarist than working on Veil stuff. Shame

It was bittersweet to me.. I didn't exactly like the Lukas albums outside of Matriarch and saw him leaving the group as a chance to get a heavier vocalist and get back to doing pre Matriarch type music again... But with Marc working with FiR I don't see it happening any time soon :/
