Welsh death metal unit Venom Prison have announced their upcoming album, Erebos, set for release early next year. The album’s artwork was produced by artist Eliran Kantor, who created the album artwork on previous releases Animus and Samsara.
Venom Prison comments, “Being able to work with our dear friend Eliran on another piece of art for VENOM PRISON has been exciting as always. Kantor knows the band perfectly well to capture our music and poetry into a visual masterpiece every single time. ‘Erebos’ was a personal one for both Eliran Kantor and ourselves. This artwork captures the moment a young person dies inside as they are surrounded by horror. In the moment their innocence is lost and desensitisation will from now on fuel the repetition of the cycle of violence in their life. This is ‘Erebos’ the one born from chaos.”
The focus of the album announcement will remain on the artwork, as the album’s first single will be released at a later date along with the track list. This will be Venom Prison’s first fresh material since 2019’s Samsara, with last year seeing the combing of two early EPs reimagined in Primeval.
Erebos will release on February 4th via Century Media Records, and the artwork for the album can be seen below. For further news on Venom Prison’s upcoming album, stick with Boolin Tunes.
