New Music : VENUS SLEEPS, MENISCUS & MOTHER MOOCH… Posted: 05/03/2015 by John O'Brien

Dublin’s VENUS SLEEPS are finally set to release their highly anticipated debut album, “Dead Sun Worship” on Friday 13th March 2015. The Psychedelic Doom band was originally the brain-child of Sie Carroll who self-recorded the two track “Demo 2012”, and became a full gigging line-up with Sie being joined by former UTOPIAN RUINS and PETROCHENICAL ACCELERATOR bassist Seán O’Connor, Fearghal Ó Maoil Eoin on drums and Steve Anderson as a second guitarist.

The massive sounding ‘Ether Sleeper’ is the first track to be released from “Dead Sun Worship”, with another track to be release in the coming days. The album will have five tracks spanning forty minutes and was recorded at the foot of the Dublin Mountains in Silverline Studios, Wicklow by Tommy O Sullivan. Mastering was handled by James Plotkin. And the amazing artwork created by Emmett Ó Conaill (Lost Cosmonaut).

MENISCUS are a new Progressive metal band hailing from Waterford. The three-piece is made up by guitarist & lead vocals Bill Stuart, John Keane (BLACKWATER PARK) on bass & vocals and Mark Stuart on drums & vocals. It’s still very early days for MENISCUS, but they are already planning to record their first EP in the near future. For now they have a track title ‘Shame’ up on their Soundcloud page which, given it’s notable OPETH influence, will certainly appeal to many and definitely deserves some attention.
