Venenum "Venenum" CD

Rising from the ashes of Germany’s underground, Venenum deliver a death metal strike that’s as haunting as it is heavy. Forged by veterans of Excoriate and other obscure legions, this debut EP blends old-school death metal roots with blackened hints and a touch of ’70s rock, creating a dark, ritualistic atmosphere that grabs you from the first riff. With organic, warm production, ghoulish vocals, and riffs that chill and enthrall in equal measure, Venenum craft music that’s more than headbanging. It’s an immersive experience of shadows and menace. Four killer tracks, interludes, and eerie melodies make this disc a fresh standard-bearer for Germany’s new wave of death metal.
