Hand Of Dust - Like Breath Beneath A Veil

Hand Of Dust is one of the most interesting acts going on right now in Copenhagen and they’re finally delivering their first full-length album. In the past few months the band took its time to refine the style already shown on the Walk In White single (released by Avant! last year) and the wait has been rewarded in full. The dark folk/rock sound of their first two EPs has now come to a perfect, extended formula with Like Breath Beneath A Veil. Ten new songs defined in martial stomps, semi-acoustic guitars drenched in reverberation and throbbing, vibrant bass lines. A fistful of ballads pregnant with tragedy and unavoidability. There’s no fanfarelike hyperbole here, only a raw, solemn gait marching onward to godknows-where.
