Singer Lukas Magyar has announced his departure from Veil Of Maya, the highly successful American metalcore act. Lukas has worked for 10 years with the group. Veil Of Maya have been largely inactive since the end of 2024, and Lukas’s departure marks the end of an era for them.
The musician has made the following statement on his social media:
“Yes, it is true that I have left Veil of Maya. First thing’s first, what an incredible, decade-long journey it has been. I am forever grateful for the opportunity and experience. In many ways, the last 10 years have reshaped my life. There were several factors that led to me ultimately stepping away from VoM, and I had to make a decision that would allow me to move forward, both personally and creatively.
“Over the last year, I’ve been focused on SIFYN, releasing music and rediscovering that spark in the studio. It’s been a real turning point for me, allowing me to reconnect with what drives me creatively and to approach music with a fresh perspective. Working on SIFYN has truly brought back a sense of excitement that I’d been missing.
“I’m also thrilled to be a part of a new collaboration with Joey Sturgis that’s coming soon. It’s been an honor to work alongside industry veterans who helped shape so many influential artists within the metal and rock world. There’s a lot more on the way for 2026 that I’m excited to share with all of you.
“I have nothing but love and respect for everyone who I’ve met and worked with along the way. I want to say thank you to the fans for their continued support, and to Veil of Maya and Sumerian Records for everything over the years.”
– Lukas”
