A Closer Listen Engages With Venera’s Exinfinite

A Closer Listen has a review of Exinfinite from Venera, which “has all the power of cinema, plus the energy of rock. Though the album is mostly instrumental, it is enhanced by a trio of guest vocalists… it’s fair to say that Venera doesn’t need a vocalist… [but] Chelsea Wolfe’s piece is the most accessible, while Dis Fig is the most ghostly. But we’re most entranced by FKA Twigs, whose Eusexua dropped this January and is rumored to be sparking a follow-up this fall. ‘Caroline’ surrounds the singer with a dark backdrop suited to her upper-case vocals, which especially sparkle in the breakdown… This is dark music for a dark age.”
There’s more – read the review here and get Venera, a project born of the collaboration between composer/filmmaker Chris Hunt and Korn’s James “Munky” Shaffer, on the air today.
