Vein.fm (formerly known as Vein) is an American metalcore band from Boston that formed in 2013. They are known for their frequent tours and have performed shows with groups such as Code Orange[1] and Twitching Tongues while in Europe.[2] In 2017 the band was signed onto Closed Casket Activities, who would issue their first full-length work Errorzone to positive reception among critics, even appearing on Revolver's early "Best Albums of 2018" list.[3] The album also managed to peak at number 21 on Billboard's Hard Rock album chart.[4] In July 2020, after the release of their remix album, the band announced it changed its name to Vein.fm.[5]

History

[edit]

Formation and Demo/Terror's Realm (2013–2015)

[edit]

In 2010, vocalist/bassist Anthony Didio and drummer Matt Wood were introduced by their sisters at a show in Haverhill, Massachusetts.[6] The band formed in 2013 in the Merrimack Valley region of Massachusetts by guitarist Josh Butts, guitarist Jeremy Martin, vocalist/bassist Anthony DiDio, and drummer Matt Wood.[6][7] The band released a self-titled demo in 2013.[7]

The band played many local shows in the greater Boston area and started to gain traction.[citation needed] The band then self-released their debut EP Terrors Realm on June 4, 2015.[8]

Self-Destruct and breakout success (2015–2017)

[edit]

In 2016, the band supposedly self-released a physical only [citation needed] demo to send to record labels, this demo is currently unobtainable online. On January 6, 2017, they released a split with Virginia metalcore/screamo band .Gif from God.[7]

Later that year, Vein signed to Closed Casket Activities[citation needed] and re-released their songs from the split as an EP titled Self-Destruct on August 15, 2017.[9] That same year, the band played shows with Jesus Piece, Code Orange, and more.[citation needed] This included an appearance at Sound & Fury Fest as well as a breakout appearance at the 2017 edition of the This Is Hardcore fest in Philadelphia.[citation needed]

This was followed by a series of successful tours including a spot on the popular reoccurring Life & Death tour alongside No Warning, Backtrack, Twitching Tongues, and Higher Power.[10]

Errorzone (2018–2019)

[edit]

In early 2018, the band were given a supporting slot on some high profile tours, including a US tour with Harms Way alongside Ringworm and Queensway as well as another US tour supporting Code Orange alongside Twitching Tongues.[11][12] This tour had support on select dates from Wicca Phase Springs Eternal, Ghostemane, Disembodied, Show Me the Body, Nicole Dollanganger, and Trail of Lies.[13]

In May 2018, the band began teasing their debut studio album. On May 8, 2018, the band released the single, and accompanied music video for "Virus://Vibrance" and announced their debut album Errorzone would be out later that year via Closed Casket Activities.[11] On May 24, 2018, the band released the single "Demise Automation."[12] The album's final single, "Doomtech" was released on June 5, 2018.[14] The band's debut album Errorzone was released on June 22, 2018, via Closed Casket Activities.[7][11] The album was produced by Will Putney.[12] The album was met with much praise from fans and critics alike.[15] This was followed by the band announcing and embarking on their first full US headlining tour with support from Sanction, Fuming Mouth, and Judiciary.[16]

On November 9, 2018, the band premiered the music video for "Demise Automation" and supported Every Time I Die's 20th Anniversary tour alongside Turnstile and Angel Dust.[17] In 2019, due to the heavy use of experimental/electronic sounds on Errorzone, the band recruited disc jockey Benno Levine to join the band.[citation needed] In January 2019, the band embarked on their first UK headlining tour with support from Higher Power and Narrow Head.[citation needed] This was followed by the band's first-ever appearance in Japan supporting Crossfaith with Injury Reserve and Jin Dogg.[citation needed] The band's last headlining tour on the Errorzone touring cycle was in the US in Fall 2019 with support from Soft Kill and Higher Power with appearances on select dates from Modern Color, Dead Heat, Silenus, and Narrow Head.[18]

Remix album and name change (2020–2021)

[edit]

In January 2020, the band supported While She Sleeps and Every Time I Die on a UK/EU tour.[19] On July 28, 2020, the band released the single and music video titled "20 seconds : 20 hours" this was a part of the surprise release of the remix album Old Data in a New Machine Vol. 1 the same day.[20] The remix album included the new single, remixes, and demos of tracks off Errorzone, and remixed/remastered versions of three tracks from the band's debut EP Terrors Realm.[21] The release of the remix album was accompanied by the announcement that the band had changed their name.[21]

In November 2021, the band announced they would be embarking on a Spring 2022 US tour supporting Touché Amoré alongside Dogleg with Foxtails and Thirdface on select dates. Dogleg was later replaced by Militarie Gun due to Dogleg's disbandment amid abuse allegations. Foxtails was later removed from the tour due to allegations of abuse and replaced by Thirdface.
