We’re incredibly excited and honored to share that GLOOM.TX has been featured by Knotfest, one of the biggest voices in heavy music, in their New Flesh Releases roundup for our latest EP, Veiled in Velvet.

In their write-up, Knotfest spotlighted the sound and direction of the EP, saying:

“Texas prospects GLOOM.TX show some serious promise with the release of their latest, Veiled in Velvet. Showcasing sharp production from the school of modern metalcore, the band's embrace of electronics and heavy groove lean into their nu-era influence resulting in a collection of tracks that hit with effectiveness. Balancing those moments of heft with glitchy interludes and hushed melody, the band's well-rounded attack suggest big things from the Texas collective.”

Being recognized by a major publication like Knotfest is a massive moment for us, and we’re grateful for the continued support from everyone who’s been streaming, sharing, and showing love to Veiled in Velvet. This EP represents a huge step forward for our sound—melding aggression, atmosphere, and emotion—and it means everything to see that effort resonating beyond our local scene.
