How The Veer Union Continued to Evolve and Get Heavier with their Music: A Look into "Reinvention"

The Veer Union has been around for over 20 years at this point and relevant for that entire time, something that very few musicians and artists could ever say. Naturally, the band is not the same as they were back when they started in 2004. If the world isn't the same as it was back then, do you think a band should be the same as it once was?So throughout the span of 20+ years and 7 albums to their name, where is the band now sonically? How has their evolution led to a career spanning 20+ year with no end in sight? Well, there is a simple word... "Reinvention."Crispin from the Canadian hard rock/alternative emtal band The Veer Union joins the Chord Progression Podcast.
