Stream Hooded Fang’s new LP ‘Venus On Edge’

Stream Hooded Fang's new album 'Venus On Edge,'. The full-length comes out tomorrow via Dapps Records.

On the eve of their forthcoming release, Hooded Fang are streaming Venus On Edge a day early. You can listen to the album below via Bandcamp.

Where once in their career lead songwriter Daniel Lee would have used lush instrumentation or thick harmony to evoke urgency, Venus on Edge gives us Ritalin tempos and sheet metal guitars, nagging us until there’s no choice but to give them what they want, surrender.

Having written plenty of lyrics in their time, Hooded Fang has already expressed angst, existential crisis wanderings and devastating heartbreak in various ways.Venus on Edge got Hooded Fang writing about subjects like Condominium Developments (Glass Shadows) and White Privilege (Shallow); Corporate Brainwashing (Plastic Love) and The Over-Consumption and Fleeting Nature of Technology (Dead Battery); and things like How Humans Would Stupidly React if Aliens Came to Earth (Impressions).
