Venues – release new single / video ‚Cravings‘

"‘Cravings‘ was written about breaking free from addiction. It doesn’t matter whether it’s about drugs, material things or people. To free yourself from what can only drive you into the abyss is not easy, as addiction often wears a radiant veil that shuts one’s eyes to reality. Daring to take this step and saying goodbye is exhausting and very brave. Writing ‚Cravings‘ gave me courage and I hope it does the same for others, or at least inspires them to be very honest with themselves."
– Lela (vocals)

„German metal with a mission and a message.“
(Kerrang UK)
„there will be a bright future.“
(Metal Hammer)
„convinces with top songwriting and a consistent uncompromising attitude.“
(FUZE)
„Venues present a total piece of art.“
(MoreCore)

For their most recent album VENUES went into the studio with producer Christoph Wieczorek (Annisokay) to record »Solace«, who coated their massive sound with a metallic alloy of remarkable precision.

“We wanted to be more metal,” Robin comments.“There were some pop sensibilities of Aspire we wanted to replace with rather the opposite.”

Melody and punch-drunk heaviness, metal and alternative rock, zeitgeist and authenticity, barbed choruses and unleashed creativity: with their soaring sophomore release, VENUES fulfill every single promise they gave on »Aspire«.

“2020 showed all of us how much the band is helping us keep our sanity,” vocalist Robin muses. “Almost the whole band went through minor or medium crises since the release of our debut. Relationships went sour, things were ended and begun. In times like these, our second album was the light at the end of the tunnel. Something we all could look forward to. Our music held our heads above water.”

It’s a big leap, going from »Aspire« to »Solace«, and it’s a logical one, too. Ten songs, ten exorcisms of negative energy, ten lifesavers.
