Veilborn: Drowning Pool & Saliva

Don't miss Saliva, Drowning Pool & Veilborn live at Diesel on Thursday October 22, 2026. Both bands will be doing full, headlining sets, celebrating the anniversaries of Drowning Pool's "Sinner" album and Saliva's "Every Six Seconds." Doors open at 6pm, all ages welcomed. Veilborn will be direct support playing right before the main headliners. Emerging in 2025 from Detroit, Michigan, United States, Veilborn blends many styles of metal into one energetic sound. Veilborn is a Detroit based metal band formed in March of 2025 by vocalist Chris “Seven” Frantz and lead guitarist Cody “Sixx” Ginter. Motivated by dedication to making music that makes metalheads mosh, the pair connected with drummer Michael Bryan, rhythm guitarist Devin “Deadman” Cycan, bassist Nicholas “Dirty” Adams, and keyboardist/synths/manager Sarah Frantz. Together the group quickly wrote an original setlist; each song with a memorable hook, groove, and big choruses. Their aesthetic - marked by masks, face paint, on-stage personas, and character lore further amplifies their identity. Lyrically, the band explores themes of the negative side of human nature, calling to light the depravities that have taken place throughout human history, using band members’ own personal life experiences and traumas to fill their songs with real raw emotion that listeners may relate to.
