"Veldbrand, an Afrikaans word for "field of fire" or "wildfire" perfectly encapsulates the tone that is at play during the 8 song classic. Both searing and serene, Veldbrand is the deafening silence that accompanies the crackle of a flame. Lucid guitars pair with swirling swells and dreamy drones to create a beautiful tornado of soft power. With it's Textural warmth and sonic brilliance, Veldbrand is an album that can't be missed. We love you Bosveld <3" - MBR

"The band's upcoming full-length debut, Veldbrand, promises to be a lush, orchestral folk offering." – CBC Ottawa
