Listen above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Vocalist Kevin Sharp comments: &#8220;We wanted to do a record that sounded reactionary. We went into a studio wrote and recorded PVE in four days, in the age of digital thinking, records full of edits. Politics Versus the Erection is perfectly imperfect.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">If the state of today\u2019s society is reflected in music, hardcore punk \/ grindcore veterans VENOMOUS CONCEPT have returned to the stage with a fitting soundtrack. The band\u2019s fourth full-length frontal assault, \u2018Politics Versus The Erection\u2019 manifests a no-nonsense and outspoken voice, resonating with the chaos that reigns over the world today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Starting out in 2004, the band was conceived as something like a grind punk supergroup \u2013 if that term can even be applied to a bunch of people with clear counterculture preferences. The name was chosen to pay homage to the legendary POISON IDEA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">At the core of VENOMOUS CONCEPT you will find BRUTAL TRUTH vocalist Kevin Sharp and Shane Embury, the iconic bass player of NAPALM DEATH. The two musicians had bonded over beer and pizza as well as their mutual love of punk heroes such as BLACK FLAG, SYSTEMATIC DEATH, GBH, SIEGE, and of course POISON IDEA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">The duo soon set about plotting its own assault on the style. Armed with bucketloads of coffee, the pair roped in Danny Herrera of NAPALM DEATH on drums, as well as MELVINS guitarist Buzz Osborne. A record deal was signed with Mike Patton and VENOMOUS CONCEPT\u2019s first album, \u2018Retroactive Abortion\u2019 (2004) was followed by a split-CD with Japanese grind band 324 (2006) and another in 2008 with BL\u00d6OD D\u00dcSTER.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Buzz Osborne eventually went on a hiatus, but he never really left and there is always a chance for his return \u2013 schedules permitting. Shane switched to guitar when longtime friend Dan Lilker (BRUTAL TRUTH, NUCLEAR ASSAULT, ex-ANTHRAX) joined on bass. Next, VENOMOUS CONCEPT brought in John Cooke of CORRUPT MORAL ALTAR on second guitar for touring. Sophomore full-length \u2018Poisoned Apple\u2019 hit the stores in 2008.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>VENOMOUS CONCEPT (featuring members of Brutal Truth and Napalm Death) have launched a stream of&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_mo_disable_npp":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-82658","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/82658","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=82658"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/82658\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":82660,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/82658\/revisions\/82660"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=82658"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=82658"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=82658"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
