Venomous Concept Release Blistering New Song “Eliminate”

Hardcore punk band Venomous Concept has just released a new song titled “Eliminate,” the second single from their upcoming album Politics Versus The Eradication. The album will be available next month on August 28.

The song is an explosion of sound, as the high-velocity tempo paired with the screamo vocals, distorted guitar and bass, and double bass drum drive the intense song from start to finish. The song sounds as if it is the audible representation of frustration and anger, as the band displays its abilities to infuse such emotions in their music. The tempo shift that occurs mid song may slow the song down by a notch, but the high intensity of the song doesn’t break for a second. The album’s second single is a fireball, and further demonstrates the band’s cohesion and energy.

Venomous Concept was originally formed in 2004 by bassist Shane Embury of Napalm Death and vocalist Kevin Sharp of Brutal Truth. Drummer Danny Herrera and guitarist John Cooke, also members of Napalm Death, round out the hardcore punk supergroup.

Politics Versus The Eradication is the band’s fourth studio album, and their most recent since their 2016 album Kick Me Silly; VCIII. The album, like “Eliminate,” is perfect display of the band’s grind-core style that drives their sound, and mxdwn’s  describes the album as “a drag race on fire.”

Drew Feinerman: I have just completed my senior at the University of Michigan majoring in international studies with an emphasis in political economics and development, with a minor in Chinese language and culture, and I have recently been accepted into the Berklee School of Music's masters of music business program. Although my academic interests include economics, political science, and history, I consider music to be my one true passion. Music is, and has always been, a driving force for the way I think and act every day of my life. I have been playing the tenor saxophone since the age of ten, and playing an instrument at a high level has allowed me to only further my understanding and appreciation for music. While I grew up listening to predominantly classic rock, I soon found myself gravitating toward jazz, hip-hop, funk, and other genres, as my learned to both play and analyze music as a listener. As a writer, I am able to apply my skills both as a musician and a listener, and look forward to the opportunity to being able to express my thoughts on various stories in the music industry.
