Venomous Concept, the band featuring bassist Shane Embury (Napalm Death, Lock Up, Tronos), guitarist John Cooke (Corrupt Moral Altar), vocalist Kevin Sharp (Lock Up, ex-Brutal Truth), and drummer Danny Herrera (Napalm Death), returned in 2020 after four years with a new album called Politics Versus the Erection and a standalone single called "Vote Clown Party". Not even one year later, Embury has revealed the band is done recording another new album that he said is definitely different than Politics Versus the Erection.
The new album was recorded with Simon Efemey (Napalm Death, Cancer, Amorphis) at Headline Music Studios.
"Finally finished the next Official Venomous Concept album with Simon Efemey at #headlinemusicstudios – I am seriously over the moon with what we all achieved !
"Team work as Simon says is always the way ! The goal was to make an album that was not just another VC album but a venture into other areas of punk and hard rock – letting all of our lifetimes musical collective flow to make it the best we could !
"Lyrically deep within these times – we have all had life issues – that is life – the hero’s journey
"Songs at points have an amazing melody both sad sounding and uplifting to reflect the true emotions – catchy …
"I don’t know what anyone will think but come what may we made the album we wanted to make … that’s all that really matters
"Not sure why I had to write this but felt I needed too !"
