Remove the Veil was a Christian metal[1] band from Opelika, Alabama, founded in January 2005.
In mid-2005 Sasser left to join With Blood Comes Cleansing, and the band decided to put Hendrix on vocals and guitar rather than find a replacement.
[citation needed] The band was signed to Facedown Records in March 2007, and their debut album, Another Way Home, was released in October 2007.
Shortly thereafter, Travis Hopkins began playing bass, and the band used a fill-in drummer for their November and December tours.
[citation needed] Watauga, the name of the sixth track on Another Way Home was chosen by vocalist/lyricist Mark Hendrix for its "dark, foreboding sound, that belonged to a prison's name, along with the familiarity that it brings of Native American words so ingrained in the South."
