VENUES – Godspeed, Goodbye (OFFICIAL VIDEO)
VENUES #GodspeedGoodbye#ArisingEmpire #Transience VENUES’ new single ‘Godspeed, Goodbye’! Taken from their brand new album “Transience”, out now!
The sparrows have been chirping it from the rooftops for a while, but now it’s official certainty: in 2024, VENUES will unfold to their full size for the first time. And we’re all here to witness it live. In short: Their third album Transience arrives worldwide on March 29 via Arising Empire!Watch the video for new single “Godspeed, Goodbye” here.After the two strong benchmarks with Aspire and Solace, which oscillated somewhere between post-hardcore, alternative metal, and metalcore, the Stuttgart-based band definitively tears down all barriers, boundaries, and bulwarks. Transience unleashes an emotional cascade full of grand melodies, visionary soundscapes, and raw, unfiltered emotion. This album = catharsis; it’s medicine for a sick world and the antidote to dreariness, indifference, and coldness.You hear it, you feel it: The 10 songs of Transience are about farewell, new beginnings, and the inevitability of change. They are they emotional projectiles that hit exactly where they hurt the most: In our wounded hearts.Recorded in three creative and harmonious sessions with their regular producer Christoph Wieczorek (Annisokay) at the Sawdust Recordings in Halle, the Stuttgart band’s third album carries all the pain of a wounded world within it.VENUES do not look away. They repress and sugarcoat nothing. Yet, they also do not give up on themselves or this world and sing, scream, play against the feeling of powerlessness. They do not close their eyes to toxic relationships (“Unspoken Words”); they channel emotional baggage (“Godspeed, Goodbye”).But VENUES are most moving in their most intimate moments. Robin addresses his mother’s cancer in “Braille” or Lela sings about captivity in the oppressive “Coming Home.” She softly says, “I have yet to manage to sing this song without crying.”Pre-order the new album Transience as CD, limited colored vinyl and special fan box, together with unique merch options at the Arising Empire Online Shop, here.TRANSIENCE TRACK LISTING:“Godspeed, Goodbye”“Haunted House““Braille”“Unspoken Words”“Bad Karma”“Reflections““Radiate Me““Oblivion““Cravings““Coming Home”VENUES ARE:Lela — Clean VocalsRobin — ShoutsValentin — GuitarDennis — Drums
