Peter Gabriel Streams New Song 'The Veil'

(Prog) Peter Gabriel has released a stream of his new track "The Veil." The former Genesis man wrote the song specifically for the upcoming Oliver Stone-directed film Snowden based on the experiences of Edward Snowden, the computer professional who leaked classified information from the US's National Security Agency in 2013.

Gabriel says of the track: "As we become so visible in the digital world and leave an endless trail of data behind us, exactly who has our data and what they do with it becomes increasingly important.

"Snowden's revelations shocked the world and made it very clear why we need to have some way to look over those who look over us. With increasing terrorist attacks, security is critical, but not without any accountability or oversight." Read more and stream the song here.
