Venom Prison – Erebos
Century Media Records
9,0/10,0
Brief:
With passion, dedication and a singular vision, greatness is there for the taking. Like all the greats, VENOM PRISON stood apart from the extreme metal pack from the start. Formed in South Wales in 2015, they release their debut EP Defy The Tyrant barely a year later, unveiling their vicious but multi-faceted take on modern brutality.
Erebos was recorded with much-revered producer Scott Atkins at the controls, Erebos is the sound of a band with the wind of liberty billowing in their sails. Once again adorned with exclusive and breath-taking artwork from renowned visual genius Eliran Kantor, the quartet’s third full-length is a thrilling explosion of artful savagery, warped melodies and tumultuous atmospherics. Erebos is a powerful, defining statement from one of the most exciting bands of the modern era. From humble origins to undisputed heavyweight status, VENOM PRISON are now an unstoppable force.
VENOM PRISON’s third full-length, Erebos, is destined to be one of /the/ metal events of 2022. A wildly inventive but utterly destructive onslaught of genre-defying extremity, Erebos is a giant leap forward and deafening confirmation that VENOM PRISON are the real, ground-breaking deal.
