Lukas Magyar announces departure from Veil Of Maya
e left Veil of Maya. Reflecting on the last decade, it has been an incredible journey. I am thankful for the experience and opportunities that Veil of Maya brought me. The past ten years have had a profound impact on my life, reshaping me in many ways. Various reasons led to my decision to step away from Veil of Maya, allowing me to move forward both personally and creatively.
In the past year, my focus has been on SIFYN, where I have been releasing music and rediscovering my passion for creating in the studio. This period has been transformative for me, reigniting my creative drive and providing me with a fresh outlook on music. Working on SIFYN has rekindled the excitement that was missing in my life.
I am excited to announce a new collaboration with Joey Sturgis that will be revealed soon. Collaborating with industry veterans who have influenced many Metal and Rock artists has been an honor. There are exciting projects lined up for 2026 that I look forward to sharing with everyone.
I am immensely grateful to all the people I have met and worked with over the years. I want to thank the fans for their unwavering support, as well as Veil of Maya and Sumerian Records for everything. With love and respect, Lukas.”

Their Facebook page has not been updated since the hiatus announcement in September 2024, and their Instagram account has been cleared of all previous posts.
